Well, money doesn't come easy... If you're over 16, get a job after school as a sweeper at an elementary school. Lots of good money there! If not, you're going to have to stick to mowing lawns, shoveling drive ways... Just get out there and ask people what they need done!

Loll money doesnt grow like with your parents, they dont pay for the rest of your stuff to show you the hard way of life, money needs to be earn... There isnt 999999 ways, get a job, start mowing lawn, ask neighboors if they need ur help, put an add somewhere in ur city that announce your services......

I taught guitar lessons for years before I got a job! I had four students at $10 a lesson per week, so I had an income of $40 a week, which is pretty good for someone below working age! If you know how to play instruments you can make some good money for very little effort.
Another way is to get a job. I work at my local Subway, and while it is a minimum-wage job, I love working there! I can make about $70-80 a week, depending on the hours I work, which is more than enough for a day of rec play!
I also supplement this income by teching and fixing people's markers. I love to do it, I learn a lot, and I can make good money for just a few hours of my time!
If all else fails, you'll need to mow lawns and shovel snow.
You shouldn't really need too much money to buy equipment if you've been playing 5-6 years. I've been playing somewhere around 5 years, and I'm pretty set for equipment. That doesn't stop me from buying more gear or parts for my markers, but I haven't made a major gear purchase since I bought my AutoCocker a few years ago.

I do yard work to get my money. My dad helped me buy a pressure washer and we have our own lawn mower, weedeater, etc. I got 250 free business cards and just ride through neighborhoods and passed them out. I make decent money doing it too. About a week ago, I made $100 in one day cutting a lady's over grown yard

Try getting a job, or ask you're neighbors if they need any help with their yard.

There is a young man about 15 that roams the local neighboorhood doing yard work for everyone. He said he uses the money for things his parents can't afford to buy for him and that he makes a good amount of money.
