You could mow lawns in your neighborhood or babysit for extra money. Or save extra money from Birthdays and Holidays, if you celebrate them.

you need to get cash and save it -
so what can you do to earn money - is ther jobs you can do?
then think how best you can save it - do you have a bank account or similar.

We'll I don't but I don't know when to get one but is it allowed that a 13 year old can get a bank account. But my friend told me he found some kind of way but I have a bad computer so I can't do it.

The money from birthdays don't really work because I only get an average of 30-50 euros/ 40.70-67-84 Dollars also there is barely any back yards nearby me because I live in a city.

You save money by not spending it....
Yes minors can have a savings account at a bank, at least where I live.
It's usually all free too.

Usually you just need a parent/guardian to open a bank account if you're a minor.

Try looking into a low-scale job (like walking a neighbors dog, babysitting, or working the corner - jk don't do that last one), or get a part-time job at a Retail store, Grocery outlet, concession stand, etc.

Well, how well can you handle a gun? Hitman for hire is an in demand and very well paying job I hear. Ok, ok. Maybe that's not the best route...

It may be that accounts for children cannot be done on line so maybe you have to get parent to help out or there maybe accounts at the post office you can ask there as well.

Check your area for jobs. Paperboy? At 13, it's hard to find a job because most places can't legally hire you. Ask your parents if you can open up a savings account so you can deposit money. And ask them if they have any ideas of summer work so you can save money for a laptop; they might have other ideas that I don't know of.

1.Sell everything you don't need (toys, trading cards, old games). Use Ebay or something, ask your parents.
2.Only ask for money for Christmas/Birthday.
3.Get a job or ask for allowance in exchange for doing extra chores.

Buy and resell things from yardsales/goodwill. Seriously, you can find high dollar items this way. Like a brand new pair of Nike's for $10, then resell for $50. It's one of the many methods on my blog.

You could try your luck with a brokerage account...
