I'm awesome at saving, and what helps me of how great you'll feel when you have A TON of money. You feel like you've accomplished a lot when you've really done nothing at all.

Hey girlie. Why not ask if any of your neighbors need help doing things about the house. Maybe you have older neighbors that need help doing chores? Good luck!

Ask your Mom to have a yard sale. Maybe with the money you make ditching your old antique furniture to buy some cute new furniture, cheap. If you can't have a yard sale then gather a bunch of your friends together for a sleepover and tell them to bring a bunch of there art supplies. Spend the night painting,glittering,stamping,glueing,sticking and signing. That's right signing....have them sign your FURNITURE. Make a bff themed room. Then to add more to your room spend the rest of the night taking pics of your friends and putting them all over the wall. Make a bunch of scrapbooks and decorate other cool things with your friends like completly white piggy banks, lamp shades and even bed spreads! Turn all your items into rainbow,glittery and stickered things with your friends signitures and pics all over them! GOOD LUCK!

I babysit for my neighbors, but they don't ask me to babysit to often. Is there a way I could save the money and be more profitable?? Thanks!




If you feel like money has been a little too short lately you can try looking for a second job. Dog walking or shoveling snow are two great examples of ways to earn some extra cash when you're not babysitting. Saving money is also a great way be more financially stable. You can put $5 aside after you get paid for babysitting, and put that into a piggy bank or savings account just incase you find something you really, really need such as the perfect dress for a party or to go to a movie with friends. You can also get more ideas with our website's "On The Job" section found here

Hey girlie- try painting them! Ask your mom for some help if you're trying to figure out which type of paint to get. Typically though, you can buy relatively cheap paint and spray paint your furniture!

my parents have already started a savings account for me but i'd like some extra cash on the side. i wanna start babysitting but my sisters ( whos kids id love to babysit) have no extra $ nd can't afford anything like that. I'm not very comfortable babysitting kids whos parents i dont know well. help!




Hey girlie. I'd say try talking to your parents about. See if they know of anyone who you know who has kids and needs a babysitter!
