How To Get Money When You Are Too Young For A Job

Oh boy. When I was younger my family always had a little bit of struggle financially. And didn’t have a whole lot but we got by. You know? No big deal. You make things work. Ain’t no thang. Ain’t nobody got no time to be worried about all that. But, of course, there were times I wished we’d have had a whole lot more resources. And being the good law-abiding citizen that I am, without proper reason for a hardship case, I had to wait until 16 until I could get a job. And Mickey D’s was my first job. And I wouldn’t eat there for at least the next six or seven years. I’m okay now but oh man you talk about trauma. I won’t get into that.

But if you have much ambition and want to start on your moneymaking or your empire building business now, why should you have to wait until 16? Right? So if you are young, or you have kids, or are planning to have kids, or cousins, or sisters, or brothers, whatever, that are looking for ways to be more ambitious and help the world, or get things done, or plan for college, or what not.

And they just feel like they don’t want to wait until 16. They’d like to get a jump on it. You pretty much are relegated to doing either hustling, an offline-type money making stuff. But really and truly it probably should be a complete focus on whatever online moneymaking resource is available. Whether that’s writing books, but nothing really stops you from writing. Making videos or video courses, audio courses, or training programs, or any of those kinds of things.

There’s so many facilities for now like Amazon’s KDP, or udemy.com, or gumroad.com, or you can sell anything as long as you can upload it and figure out a price for it. It’s just it seems like there are so many opportunities now to take the time that you have, regardless of what age you are, put it to good use and helping other people and get rewarded for it.

I know I spent my teen years playing video games, or making web pages, or building computers. Making web pages? Maybe that was a couple of years later. Not that I’m that old but, you know, don’t want any anachronisms coming in here. But I had wish, I wish now. I wish that someone had a greater path focus or tips laid out for me on how I could make that time more useful. Especially when I started realizing that hey, gas costs money. Hey, food, goodies, toys, games, car parts, college all costs a lot of money. And the sooner I could have got started the better.

So there are plenty of opportunities available. It’s just a matter of finding the right people to help you or help those around you to understand that fact. And you don’t just have to go the regular old cookie cutter path of getting a job at Mickey D’s. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. Think about that. Expand your mind. Make some money. And help people. Okay. Adios.
