Ok, so here's the background...

I got in a wreck on the 23rd of December with a drunk driver and totaled my car. It wasn't my fault and insurance paid my dad to get me a new car. Then everything went downhill... We ended up not talking for 3 months, went to counseling, and then had ANOTHER blowup and aren't talking again... If you want more details just PM me, but I don't feel like typing the whole story... Long story short. My dad isn't buying me a car and I'm living with my mom.

Anyways, summer's here! I need a job so I can get myself a nice car ASAP. Any ideas on the best teen job to get me some good money quick? I don't mind working, work well with other people, and I know I can do it myself. I just don't know where to start. I'm really tech-savvy, and I think that might be the ticket. Problem is that I'm 16 and most people don't trust a 16 year old with their high dollar tech. I have my own tech business here in Memphis, but it hasn't really taken off. (check it out - owenstech.net)

The real question here is this: Do I just say screw my own company and try and find another job or dump some money in my company marketing-wise and try and make some cash that way? I don't really know what to do...

Any advice is appreciated, and I'm sure someone has an opinion on here. :cool:

You have to have cash to spend cash... you want a car? Don't spend your money on your 'company'. You can't just jump in anywhere and get great pay, good hours and be set. You have to start somewhere, and 9 times out of 10, its the bottom. Bagger at the local supermarket, or Walmart. Rob the best is to look for something at your age, not so much your brain. You might be tech savvy, but most 16 year olds now days are.
