How to fill my wallet?

I worked all summer and gained U$72 (I know miserable but it's something). Now, I don't know what to do to earn money in my country that doesn't offer jobs to ppl below 18 years old, it's very dangerous to sell things in the streets, and ppl don't accept you like cutting their grass nor babysitting their kids. It's really complicated and my only job is helping my mom or dad with their work or cleaning my sister's room (unfortunately she is pretty organised). I need help, I need to earn money, I need you help!! Any ideas that don't involve robbing a bank nor store?

    ~Sneak across the US border and get to California and pick lettuce.

    Or slip into Thailand and make clothes, or into China or Indonesia and make computer chips. Columbia has openings in the pharmaceutical industry and Cuba needs help with the cane. If you can't make it to any of these places, sell your body - for entertainment or for parts.

    When i was younger i lived in a town that had a boardwalk and a water park so for me it was pretty easy. I was able to work at the boardwalk stands under the books for 6 bucks and hour. And hey, at 13 that's pretty awesome.

    But I also had alot of friends who didn't have the same freedoms with their parents as i did, but were still able to make $$. First of all, if you want to make some easy cash doing lawnsor babysitting, you should make some signs and post them around. Put the hours that people can call and check with your parents to see if it's ok.

    If you have any musical talent, play on a busy street corner.

    If you have any artistic talent, go to local shows and sell your homemade stuffs. A friend of mine made coin purses out of old t-shirts and sold them for four bucks a piece. (if you'd like some instructiosn on how to make them easy, send me an e-mail). People like hand made/painted things.

    And last but not least, the harder way to make money. Cleaning business. Ask some of your friends parents if tehy are looking for anyone to clean thier house. First of all you already have an "in" because they know you. Second of all, if they are not looking for your services they may have friends or co-workers who are. Make some signs with multiple job listings on it. Lawn care, babysitting, cleaning, stuffing envelopes. Anything! Good luck friend!

    Exercise and walk when you can .. saves money on gasoline. Or .. if you can, car pool and share rides to and from where you need to go.

    Mow yards, offer to plant flowers or do other misc yard work. Wash cars and do an especially good job. Be honest, look respectable, and people will give you a chance.

    If you're involved in a church - offer to help with cleaning or other jobs that might need done. Prove to people that you're a good worker.

    You seem to be creative and able so first look arround a decide what you can make and sell.

    cloths, neclace, bird houses somthing. Now at first only your neighbors and family will buy. But if the product is good others will want it and soon enough you will have to hire help and you will have plenty of money.

    Trust your self and GOD.
