When you were a kid what did you do for money?

I did other people's homework etc for money. Worksheets were $1 per page. Essay's were $5, unless they were 5 page boys, then they were $15. This is the main reason I got all C's. I was too busy doing everybody elses work to do my own.

 

my grandpa used to give me big bills and tell me not to tell my mom because she thought my grandparents spoiled me too much. they would sneak me all kinds of stuff. I was at there house two weekends ago and saw my grandpa break out his wallet before I left and I gave him a look like 'please don't' I mean for goodness sakes it was the mans birthday and he put it away. I love love love my grandparents to death.

 

I worked on my grandfathers farm til I learned about labor laws.

 

I had to sell pumpkins one year. My uncle grows them, so my dad got the idea that I should set up a stand and sell them a couple weeks before halloween. Then he made me go to door to door with a wheel barrow full of them the day before halloween. I made like $75, but at the time it sucked.

 

Returned deposit bottles.....occasionally got an allowance.

 

i would wait for one of my siblings to do their laudry cause I know they would leave money in the pockets all the time...
parents didnt believe in allowence so we either got lucky and parents would throw some change at us or waited till was old enough to get a job...

but when younger, i would babysit...(yes, scary, I know )

 

Oh yeah...I forgot, babysitting. Also money in the couch.....

 

What did I do for money as a kid? I asked for it. I was spoiled rotten. My mother actually didn't WANT me to work. Go figure.

Although I did do some babysitting from time to time, and I was lucky because the families that I sat for paid nicely. But I earned every penny of it, those kids were wild things!

 

when I was 10 I started going to work with my father in the summer time
by the time I was 12 I was no longer in school and I went to work thru fall and some of winter
he builds roads dams and other dirt moving projects..mostly it was for farmers
I dug ditches and laid pipe...later towards the end I was running his lil track loader
but I never got paid
if I wanted money I had to get my sister to ask for it...she was spoiled

blahh oh well I got some guns outta the deal

 

the usual: paper routes, babysitting, blowjobs...
