Need to make money fast

[MrCodeDude]

So, I need like $600 by the end of the summer, since my Birthday is in August, but still, getting paid $5 an hour does suck

You live in San Jose and you make minimum wage?
I have a friend who live around that area he made $8/h bagging groceries in high school. 2X that amount during the holidays.

I forgot what district he lives in, but have you consider driving to the more lucrative part of town?

I'm 13, and unless you know a store that can legally hire 13 year olds, I'm fine with $5 an hour. Jr. LifeGuarding and Web Design is about the only thing I can really do.

Why not ask your parents to drive you to work or take the bus so you can get something that pays better?

And isn't min wage above $5/hour now?

Actually that's not a bad idea, assuming you can find the CD-RW in stock I wonder how much you'd get for it on eBay?

You can look for second job, or start selling your organ on fleabay.

 

[RaoulDuke]

you're 13, what do you need $600 for? sorry i had to ask.

Watch Half-Baked for inspiration

 

[tantos]

max out your parent's credit card buying cheap stuff on anandtech and fleabay it for high profit!

Better talk to your employer. Department of Labor says:

The minimum wage in California is $6.25/hour. It's increasing to $6.75/hour effective 01/01/02.

The current FEDERAL minimum wage is $5.15/hour, but the higher minimum takes precedence.
