Is it a tough summer for your teenager? Are they one of the countless teens who tried unsuccessfully to get a summer job, only to find out the summer job opportunities were slim? What does your teen do for money now? Save and just not spend much? Do you pay them for extra chores and work around the house? Mowing lawns, babysitting, telling neighbors and friends that they’re available—what is your teen doing in this summer job market?

1. Start a traveling car wash business. Take your brushes, towels, etc. to people's homes and wash their cars while they are at work (you can safely wash about 5 cars a day).
2. Tutor someone's child in a subject you excel in. This will help you get better with a subject you are already good at and help you earn extra cash.
3. Grocery shop for someone (use your own bags and get the groceries cheaper while staying green). Your employer doesn't need to know you got a discount.
4. Pick up dry cleaning for people. This is a hassle and I would hire someone to do this for me.
5. Mow people's lawn.
6. Garden for someone (my gardener charges me weekly).
7. Begin an "ironing service". Most people like to wash their own clothes but hate ironing. You can do this in front of the TV.
These are just the first of 30 suggestions.
