How old are you when you made your first money, and what you do?

How old are you when you made your first money is a very nice question.You made me walk down the lanes of my childhood.I used to have a purse with me and i used to keep the little money i get as gifts from my family in it.It was after three years of crossing my kindergartens, my mom was cutting bitter gourd for cooking. I already knew that she had a 100 Rupees with her. I went to her and said i will eat one bitter gourd. She didt believe me and laughed at me. I said if i eat this, u should give me 100 Rupees. She agreed thinking i said it for fun. Successfully i ate two bitter gourds and got 200 Rupees from her.This was how i made money first time. Though its not hard earned money, at that small age it was interesting to get money for doing something.

I made my first money at the age of 15. At that time, I helpped in my uncle's small plant on holidays. I am so exciting when it's time to get pay. Hehe, much exciting than first time get paid in internet.

I first earned money when i was in my 10 grade in my father business. I was making money before, but with the help of my father, but that was the time when i earned first time complete for my self. From that time i am earning.. and spending.. don't know from where money comes and goes.. I guess that is the life.

Hi, i first earned my money after my graduation in high school. I worked as a sales person for an infants and children boutique. I did that for a year. After that i went to college. It was a very nice experience since i learned the value of money especially that it was not easy earning it. And at that time, even just with a little salary, i was able to help my sisters expenses for school. That made me even more happy!

I first earned money from my first ever job in a company. It was my first supposed big pay ever. (Back then i really thought it was high enough but nowadays it is still higher than everybody else's) But I think I had those unusual jobs my parents would let me do like work for my aunt's company but could not remember it really well if I was paid or I was just doing it out of the goodness of my heart. Funny thought though. Nowadays not everybody does that anymore.. Everybody wants to be paid for whatever odd job you do.

I think i was about 9 or 10 y.o, when I came up with several ideas to earn money. Is not because the money that brought me in action, but more because I thought it was fun. I used my grandma' recipe, a very simple one, modify it lil bit, borrowed my moms old stove and start selling it around my kid's neighbor. It last for week I think, and there were many kids like what I cook. Then, I also once opened "traditional small shop" where I sell various goods for household using only "a table" to put all in. Didnt last long. Then I sold funny sticker at school. Not last long, because mostly I used it by myself. I also opened small books rent shop ( i donno how to call it in english), where I lend my books for certain cost. I lost many books, because kids didnt return it again. But made good money that time from this. In general, I didnt really became rich for that, but it was fun. It just a pity, that i stop doing it after I got in junior high. Busy with school and being teenage age, made me forgot about all the fun being entrepreneur.

The first money I ever earned was when I was twelve years old. I gathered all the old bottles and went to a junk shop. I guess I was able to get around P5 because there were a lot of bottles then. I don't recall where I spent the money though.

I started to work when I was 19 years old while taking up my college studies. I was working for the university as an office assistant in the administration. The pay is not that high but I get the chance to go to my classes immediately after my work and I don't need to hurry up since I work with the university premises only. My professors also gave me some considerations when they knew that I am working for the university so it was good for me. I told one of my professors before that I need work and I was referred by my professor to the administration. I run away from home so that I can study better and have a good life. I was being maltreated by my mother during those times and there are times that she will not let me go to my classes if she wants. I did not regret anything that I did from the past and I am happy ever since until right now.

I made my first money when I was only 7 or 8 years old. Of course, it wasn't very much. But me and my best friend would pick lots of flowers and arrange them in bunches, them sell them n parking lots etc. A lot of people seemed to enjoy buying flowers from cute little girls haha. We spent the money on toys and sweets.

When I first started making money I helped my mother with her daycare and I was only 10 yrs old. After that I started going to people's houses at the age of 12 and babysitting on my own. That was the hardest job I ever had until many years later. At the age of 15 I went and stayed with family in Oklahoma and worked on a blueberry farm picking blueberries out in 100+ weather. I've worked in many different areas doing different things and I think my 2 most favorite was working with the elderly (which I still presently do) and working road construction. I did both for quite a long time and never had a day off, loved it though, always kept me busy.

I recall making my first dollar when I worked at Sonics as a car hop serving food to customers in their cars. I was 16 years old working the nights shifts. This was my first job and I got a lot of tips every night I worked, between $20-$30 a night, which I found was great! I wasn't wearing any skates like I've seen at some Sonics, but I wouldn't work well with skates anyways. I liked that job, but I probably wouldn't like it so much now.

Starting from when I was young I got really in to making some money for myself, I was really in to being independent at a very young age. As my parents will restrict me buying certain items if I was living with the allowance that they were giving me. So obviously like every little kid who wants all the toys in the shop I was upset so I would sell all my old toys and stuff which I out grew to whoever who would pay me, the internet, friends, etc. As I got older a teenager I got really in to fashion. I always wanted what was new what comes next and I loved shoes and bags. It was like I could never have enough and my parents did not approve of my spending as they thought I was rather reckless so then since I needed to make more income to keep up with the clothes. I would get a job at my favorite store so that I get an extra discount. And since I was buying so much new clothes I only wear each out fit once then I'd sell it to my friends who wanted the out fits but had less money to spent. I'd sell them my out fit after I wore it once for 3/4 of the price as I keep them all in good conditions and my friends were just dying to get some designer out fits for themselves as well. Then I got really greedy and wanted more cash flow so I opened a store. A little clothing store to share my fashion with the world. and till this day I still run it for side income. and I'm still young. Studying just like you. I take part time jobs here and there, run my store, study. I do all that I can so that I am not dependent on my parents. I don't want to over-whelm them with the luxury's I enjoy such as fashion if they do not get to enjoy them for their selves.

hello, does gambling counts?! lol! when i was about 12 years old. Me and my friends create a gambling game. In which we would guess the last digit of the plate number of a arriving cab. Whoever wins gets the bet. lol! And the winner will treat everyone an icecream. lol!

Hi i was 19 when i joined call center to earn some money i started earning money while i was doing my graduation. It was very tough to work and study together. But i really enjoyed that because it was my first job and i really enjoyed the experienced. Although i do not think call center is a better place to work. I mean there is no chance of progress in your position or anything. Presently i am working in a Production House and i am a animator by profession.
