what would be some good tips to earn cash for a teenager who cant work anywhere until next year, i want to save up for the new Ipad 2. Ive thought about mowing lawns but i cant afford renting a lawn mower or buying gas, and babysitting, thats out of the question. Ive even thought about selling stuff on ebay but i think ill save that until im older.

you're already 20 years old based on your mylot profile, selling stuffs online would be great. i began my online selling when i was 18 (actually just did it a couple of months ago, hehe) why not try article writing. be open to those low rates such as 1-3$ for 100-500 word article. those opportunities will help expand your knowledge in different kinds of article writing and different topics. and in no time you will surely have a right to demand higher rates because you'll be capable of writing high quality articles about tons of topics already. :)

alright those sound like reasonable ideas, do you have any suggestions on what websites or agencies that would pay for articles?

Well if you can't get a job you really hve no other options.. Why is it that you can't get a job? You could deliver flyers or something. Babysitting can be ok, you can get paid a decent amount. You could probably trade in something you have for the new iPad. Try to keep in mind that is a LOT of money if you don't have a job.

why not get a part time job at a fast food chain. You can also talk to your parents about them giving you responsibilities at the house and them paying you for it. Of course, it will obly be until you buy th Iad2 afterwards you can help out at the house for free. I think selling stuff on e-bay is a good idea. Try pursuing it.
