I am a 14 year old and I really need to make 600 dollars in 2 months for this school volunteer trip to Laos. Furthermore, the area I am living in is quite well-off to ask tuition from a 14 year old so I can't give any tuition. Is there any other way to earn money fast? I really want to go on this trip! Thanks.

Buy low sell high, that's the major tenet of all business. So go to the Sam's Club or BJ's or Costco, and purchase a huge allotment of candy or other small single items. Figure out how much they cost you per item and how much you can charge for them, (your "margin" is the difference between what it costs you to buy them and how much they sell for). After you have sold everything go back to the store and buy more, do it again and again. Soon you'll have the money you need and much much more.

You might consider going business to business and asking them to sponsor you. Make sure you go with all the documented proof you can it is legitimate, and what the purpose and benefits of the trip are, It might surprise you how many small businesses will donate in the name of contributing to the community

Sell or pawn something of your own- like tv, game console, games, clothes, ipod, etc. You have to sacrifice something if you want to go on this trip.
