Who says teens only know how to do fun things? Today, you can be the youngest entrepreneur in your community or even in the entire world; and you do not have to quit school, give up parties and friends, or even stop yourself from growing up.Here are 3 lucrative businesses for you:1. Take a dog for a walk. If you have extreme love for dogs, and you would not mind taking them for a short walk around the neighborhood, then you are fit to become a dog walker. Usually, dog walkers need to only work for a few minutes every day. In fact, you can have the luxury to pick your own schedule and the kinds of dogs that you want to take. You can also choose to visit the dogs yourself or have them delivered at your own doorstep. Regardless of your choice, however, you are in for a very great deal. As a matter of fact, you can charge from $15 to $20, for every visit. It can even go higher if you are only caring for one dog.2. Clean someone else's garden. Do you have a green thumb, or do you have special talents in gardening? Now is the time to put your talent to great use. You can look around your neighborhood and ask families if they want their garden to be taken care of by you. You can actually customize your services. You can choose to just rake and bag leaves, toil the garden, plant the favorite herbs or vegetables of the house owners, or shovel. Your investment will also be at all-time low. You can simply purchase a pair of glove, rake, and shovel, and you are already good to go. If you this job right, you can earn as much as $100 per day.3. Sell items on eBay. You have heard of power sellers and how they are now earning thousands or even millions of dollars every month just by auctioning items. You can definitely do that too, and you even do not have to leave the comforts of your own home. If you have some pretty dresses or collectibles that you think you can now give up, you can sell them as your introductory items in eBay. Moreover, just so you can minimize your expenses, you can opt to have the buyer shoulder the shipping costs. The good thing about eBay is that it does not really require you to spend a lot of time in front of your PC. As long as you know that you do have a market with your products, then you can certainly make it in this mega-auction site. Needless to say, though, because competition can be a little bit tough in eBay, you have to arm yourself with some basic tips. You can read them all over the Internet.Indeed, being young does not really stop you from starting to become independent. Nevertheless, ensure that you can manage your finances wisely. If you think you need help in this aspect or even in choosing what kind of business to take, do not hesitate to ask help from your parents.Milafel Hope Awe is a writer, copy editor, SEO specialist, and entrepreneur.
