Author Topic: What do you think are some ways a teenager can make money?  (Read 1332 times)

I already have two ideas.

Ok so, I might be getting a summer job this year (hopefully) and I'd be able to make up to $500-1200 - I want to try to turn that money into something more.

There is a discount clearance store in my area which always has amazing deals, like one time I saw a Gucci bag for $100 which was originally $400 and within 10 minutes I watched all 5 of the bags laying there being taken. I've been thinking of buying some of these things and then reselling them on EBay for their retail price, of course though I would only buy stuff which is actually worth reselling like an upscale brand or something which can make a good profit or something that is in high demand.

Should I do this guys? I just thought of this today, and I don't think it's a bad idea at all.

(Also is the title considered dismissive? I hope not, but I want to make sure)

Sounds interesting. I have several friends who buy old cars and fix them up before reselling them. Their most recent are a '68 Mustang and '71 Volkswagen.

Wow, if I had a lot more money I would do that. I only want to go into basic reselling though to save for college, and because when I am 18 I want to start putting some of my money into currency, equity funds, and maybe stock.

yes thats a very good idea
you could get alts a new computer or something if you saved up

You can invest into crypto-coin mining with $900. I'm sure you could buy 3 Radeon R9 270 (470 Kh/s each) video cards and the other components with that much money.

Currently, you will earn about $8.00/day off of that. A computer which makes money!

Would it pay off though? Also could a MacBook Pro do this?

Yes, you usually recoup your investment in 3 months with altcoin mining.

Of course not. You need a system with a discrete video card (and one that either runs BAMT Linux or Windows).

Are there any laptops which could do this?


But we'll have to worry about people like Clone and Steve trying to molest us because they like cp

buy old sewing machines from goodwill for $5 and sell them for $100, that's what my mom does.
