Default ALL YOUNG HOBBYISTS READ!! YOUR MONEY PROBLEMS ARE OVER!!

i know theres alot to read but read it! you wont be sorry!!


Hi. Im 14 years old and bring in mybe $10.00 a week of allowence. Now since I started doing what Im going to tell you I make around $50.00 a week! WHILE AM AT SCHOOL!
Well, at my school people love gum!! They chew it all the time, once they see it they want some, so I go to Walgreens once a day and buy value packs of Doubble Bubble gum. There is 5 packs for a doller.
Last time I went I bought 12 value packs, took them all out and put them in my book bag, then on the buss, at school and several other places I sell each PACKAGE of gum for $1.00 A peice. And they buy it like crazy! Just today I made $21.00 PROFIT!
So every pakage of gum I buy I make a $4.00 Profit!
Give it a try!
Works for me!!
My Rustler will be able to run over a T-Maxx when Im finished with it!!

tELL ME YOUR OPINIONS ON THIS! AND IF YOU TRY THIS TELL ME HOW YOU IT WORKS FOR YOU!

Working sucks,now you see why people get into selling drugs....and its usually people who were crafty like that in school,lol.Keep sellin the gum man

Not sure about your state but in Florida you can get a job at 14,I think they just restrict your hours to 30 or something.

yea, thats what i do at school i sell juice chips and candy(and other stuff i shouldnt mention). i usually make $100 on a good week but the downside is i have to bring another bag, and there is also other people sellin

yea you can get a job at 14 in florida but not that many places will hire you if they have a choice between you and someone older.

Nice. Blow-pops were the "drug of choice" back when I was in school. 25-50c a piece...whole bags for 2 bucks or less.

Ya good for you dude!

If you are consistent and persistent, it sounds like a great income for what you need.

Keep that drive and spirit into adulthood, and then you can really make some cabbage!

Dude I forgot all about those! Blow-pops were awesome! Those things would give you a buzz they had so much
sugar in em- and then bubble gum afterwards!

NOT ME!!! I despise Nitro!If I wanted a Nitro car I would have gotten one allready!
If you ask me they just cause problems! Nothing more nothing less.

Plus my Rusty can run over any nitro car! WITH ONLY 3 wheels!
lol!
