Anybody know any jobs a 12 year old boy can do to earn money?

Brian · 06-28-2004, 02:43 PM

There aren't any that I know of. I think the youngest age for getting a job would be around 16 years old or maybe a year less.

You might also be able to cut some people's grass(being summer).

Otherwise, wait a few years.

Put an ad in the paper saying you're willing to do yardwork for $5/hour or whatever

I'm sure you could check with Mr. Jackson...

No, really, to answer your question, I don't think anything exists that a 12 year old can do but some of the other people's suggestions could prolly work.

Yard work, babysitting, washing cars

When I was 12, I babysat for money. It's pretty easy. But of course, I babysat neighbors (people I actually knew), rather than some random family's baby.

my dad has been paying me $4 a week for dusting and vacuuming the house since i was 13, so you could probably do something like that..

EmoJoe · 06-28-2004, 04:49 PM

Babysitting

I babysat and had a paper route when I was 12. Also I lived near a golf course so my friends and I would retrieve all the lost balls at the end of the day and sell them to the golfers for 50 cents apiece. We made a killing on that job.

Lemonade stand? You'll always catch the paper guy. Charge high. He'll buy some anyway.
