agreed if you are having a hard time finding a job large chains normally hire often, wallmart micdonalds so on and so on. if you are older and still cant find a job try a temp agency, the work isnt a walk in a park and normally involves heavy lifting but money is money. if you are under the age to work ask your family or people in your community if they have odd jobs that they would pay you to do, mow lawns shovel snow rake leaves. money comes from hard work normally. and think your skates will be that much cooler if you had to work your rear off for them.

Just like those two above there, I also suggest: JUST GET A JOB.
And, I predict, all of the following post will have pretty much the same message.

even at 14 you can do odd jobs for family and people in your development. you are never too young to learn the value of a dollar. and looking at used equipment can help to lower cost of entry to the sport. i understand this isnt a cheep hobby but if you save all you get it adds up fast and what ever you decide to spend your hard earned cash on is truly yours. so just mow lawns and think of it as skate training while you push VF

there's no way to get money with no work to my knowledge if there was i would be doing it haha they can try doing many small odd jobs for cash like carwashes, wash windows, clean pools, street perform. the only other way i can see is beat riders with just your feet in till you get all the parts for a pair of skates, in not shore will PWN allow that

Why not? It was DESIGNED to allow this: if you have at least one running set of wheels but don't have money - go on and try to win new parts!

As for makin money goes.. The easiest way is the doing odd jobs for money thing. You can also start a "business" at school. I know that it's probably "illegal" but whatever. One of my friends actually paid for his family to go on this big boat trip for a weekend with just the money he made from selling candy and sodas. It was pretty crazy.. I even made a bit of money one time from buying those 20 pack of Marie cookies and selling them for cheap. As for buying things, the best thing to do at this point in time is to buy used stuff... Check Craigslist daily when you have at least 70 saved up and you can probably pick up some good stuff. My Roces Khutis I picked up for 60. There are also sites that post a used section for skates to check out if you want that. I can even link some of these to a message if you like.
