  • Sell Your Skills. If there are things you are really good at like cross-stitching, gardening, making projects, you can sell those skills of yours to your family and friends. If none of your hobbies are working out, then discreetly observe what your family and friends need and interested in. If you can do it, then go for it.

  • Type. If you type fast, you can charge your older siblings or other kids at school to type their school papers for them.
