How can I save enough money to buy a car?

So I'm gonna get my license in November. So I have 5 months to save about $2000. Do you have any idea of how to do this? I don't have a job because not a lot of places hire 15 year olds. Is this even possible? I don't have to get a car the minute I turn 16 but do you have any idea of how to raise a lot of money?

    You can try mowing people's lawns and doing yard work for them. I made quite a bit of profit from this. Also, you could babysit, petsit, clean for people. Just try to find odd jobs to do for friends, family, and neighbors.

    There is a lot to say aobut financial management, which is really what you are asking

    when you are inquiring about how to save money.

    However, thats for another day. The quickest and fastest way I know to save

    money for almost everyone is to save money on gas/fuel. Almost everyone

    drives and right now, gas prices are too damn high.

    Save 50 cents to $1.00 per gallon will save you a lot of money. You can do this

    by visiting my website.

    However, better than saving money is making more money, and a lot more money.

    If you want to do this quickly, again, reveiw the site below.

    To save money, you must reduce your spending, obviously. But with that savings,

    you must use that to pay off your debts. Once you are out of debt, you must invest

    money.

    You must create residual income streams. Review the site below to learn how

    to take control of your financial life.

    Get a part-time job at a grocery store, library, or food place. You can also babysit, mow lawns, or get a paper route.

    I worked to earn the money to buy my first car. You young people are kind of screwed out of that opportunity, wife and I saved the money so my child could buy her first car. Ask your folks to help you out.
