Career

Making Money is a Terry Pratchett novel in the Discworld series, published in the UK on 20 September 2007. It is the second novel featuring Moist von Lipwig, and involves the Ankh-Morpork mint and specifically the introduction of paper money to the city. Ankh-Morpork has hitherto not used banknotes. The continuing work of Adora Belle Dearheart (Lipwig's fiancée by this novel) with the Golem Trust is also a feature of the novel.

Sarah-Elisabeth replied: "mow lawns- house cleaning- rake yards- help neighbors move- im 12 too and ive done this before, but make sure you know the person ur helping DO NOT GO DOOR TO DOOR!"

Promise replied: "babysitting, i started it when i was 13, its been 5 and a half years now, and i remember it was a good way to get cash."

extreme pink replied: "when your 12 there really isnt a lot you can do. trying starting your own businesses, like baby sitting, or mowing lawns, or something like that. it really does work better than youd think. you have to be careful though, cuz there are some crazy people out there lol."

Bert C replied: "your parents might be living in debt and need the money. they might act rich but be in debt. anyway why would a 12 year old want to go to greece?? coudn't hte $5000 be invested in something a little more beneficial. believe me there is no way for a 12 year old to make 5000 dollars in under a year so you have to be dedicated. try selling your lunch snacks to your friends at discount prices. also hold a garage sale to sell all your old toys (you could also sell these to your friends)the best thing to do would be to suggest to take a family vacation to greece. lastly, unless you plan to stay in greece for a month or travel first class $5000 is alot the plane tickets shouldn't cost more then 2 grand and the hotel not more then $400 a night"

woundbyte asked: "If they are making money while they are here illegally, is not that money the same as money a drug maker earns? And we sieze the money and belongings of drug makers when we catch them. So, shouldn't we do the same to the money that illegal aliens make?"

msdeville96 replied: "I would say so. It hurts the U.S. economy because they send the majority of that money back to their "home" country. That limits the money that is in the flow of the economy.By the way, it is illegal to work for a wage and NOT report it to the IRS. It is considered tax evasion and in case you think it isn't a big deal, it is the ONLY thing that put Al Capone in jail. So in my eyes it is serious enough."

B.Kevorkian replied: "Unlike drug dealers, most illegals are not exactly sitting on big piles of cash you can confiscate."

Christa K replied: "I would find that really wrong. Making money with a job is not illegal. Selling drugs is.They worked for that money and hurt no one. Drug dealers are potential murderers if their drugs should cause an overdose.Its simple...selling drugs BAD...earning money with a job...GOOD!!!"

Nicky CutesyBoo asked: "Like, if you just started, and how many years till you get really good money, also, how many years till you can be in captain seat. Also is it worth waiting for few years to make good money?Airline: air canada"

majordasty replied: "The bigger the plane the more money you make. Some Co-captains make the same or more than some Captains for example a 747 co-captain would make more than a DC-9 Captain.I knew some pilots with Northwest Airlines (Opps Delta ..now) who were Captains of DC-9s but had to take a promotion to be a Co-captain of a DC-10, when NWA flew DC-10s.I don't know for sure how much commercial pilots make but it's good money for the time spent, especially when you get to fly overseas routes. I would guess a 747 Captain would be making around $175 - 200K a year."

webdemon00 replied: "From 70's to early 90's747-400 (Capt.) 200K to 300KNow, 80K to 150KFirst you apply, get a license, go to school, complete training, then you finally you get to fly. And at least every 2 months or so, get a medical and pass the "checks"It used to take 15+ years to become a captain but now, since most airlines/aircraft can be operated by 2 pilots it won't take that long but considering the fact that you'd be paid 1/4 of what captains used to earn up until the late 80's or early 90's; (inflation) it's up to you to decide whether or not it would be worth years of training and pretty much a life time of commitment. Note: security clearance required since pilots deal with classified information from the government. e.g. regards to possible terrorist activities and threats."

modelplus2000 replied: "Assuming you mean airline pilot, they usually start out at 20k a year. It's not how many years your in the buisness, it's how much pilot in command time you have. The more hours and experiance the more money you make. Pay scales go up quickly. They usually start out at 20k 1st year, 2nd year30-40k, and the 3rd year on up any where from 60k-130k.This is if you stay with the same company. There are other commercial pilot jobs like flight instructors, corporate pilots ect. Pays for these job vary greatly."

holly_sweetheart85 replied: "it takes 4 years because my nanas friend works at the air port and after ur 4 years u get to drive the planes and get to go all over the world it is so worth IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

micamaro17 replied: "I got my bachelors in aviation, four year degree. With flight training it cost around $100,000, without federal, state, aid, etc. Then I was a flight instructor for 2 years making 25,000 a year, then I went to a regional airline and cleared a whole 18,000 dollars. Then I was furloughed from the airline and now fly as a charter pilot in corporate jets. I am a captain now and make around 40,000. Regional airline top out around 100,000 a year and it takes you many years to get there. Once you move on to a Major airline you start back down at 40,000 and work your way back up. Of course if your company goes out of business or you get furloughed you usually can't make a lateral move in pay scales. I.E. Regional captain making 80,000 a year gets furloughed, usually can't get the same pay. Probably would be going back down to 40,000."

colanth replied: "There aren't really any legitimate ways, other than data entry, and about the only data entry jobs that are available are in the medical transcription area. If you're not already on Usenet, download a news program, or use something like Thunderbird. Read the sci.med.transcription newsgroup for a while, until you see what goes on, then ask for advice. Don't let the ribbing and scare stories put you off - they're all good people, and not after your (non-existent) money. But they do like teasing newbies."

lightinuptheus replied: "I just signed up with commission junction. If you have a web page you can become an affiliate and it cost you nothing to get started. I spent about two weeks looking for this kind of program. You can even pick your own stores. good luck."

The Hallster replied: "I recently found one that is totally free. They even have step by step videos to take you through the whole process. They have free streams of income and pay ones. The only one that I pay for is GDI, or Global Domains. But, that is only because they pay really good. It is free to join, so I figured I had nothing to lose by signing up."

jen b replied: "Yeah, there really are not any good ways to make a ton of money. If you are on the internet a lot you can make minimal amounts of money doing the paid to click thing. I get about $60 a month. It is a little extra and it is easy especially if you get referrals. These you can buy which i bought a few with the money i made and then they make money for you. Or you can try to recruit referrals on your own (which i suppose I am going to do with you by offering you my referral link to this site). Keep in mind we are talking about earning pennies to click, however if you stick with it and eventually have 40 or 50 referrals making pennies for you daily it adds up. But be wary of any site that says you will make $200-$1000 a day. Scam![url=http://idealbux.com/?r=mpjen8981][img]http://idealbux.com/banners/banner.gif[/img][/url]"

Austino replied: "You really can't unless you make a freewebs.com account. That's where you can make your own website for free. You can sell things on your website."

jonathan ko replied: "these days u hav to be smart. dont do any of those online websites that say u work at home and u get money. it waastes ur time and u get more working at mcdonalds. only do that if u are utterly hopeless and u give up ur life. u need to first get a job. not fast food. start at like a small clinic receptionist or anything in office. that way u learn some things and u can take classes and make more money. either that or u just get an easy job and make little money to get a loan. then once u do, get a loan and invest in stocks. become a day trader and if done succesfully, u can make millions without using a penny of ur money. say u get a 100,000 dollar loan(hypothetical). u invest in 1/3 gold 1/3 nsu and 1/3 ae(just examples).u choose what u predict will grow the next day ONLY THEN NOT LONG TERM. then next day u sell ur stocks regardless of whether they went down or up. if ur stocks went up 10% total, u get back 110,000. u pay back ur loan and u get another. u never hav to user ur money if u become good at it. this has risks tho, it is no different than gambling. u will lose big eventually, as will u win big. u can do this till u make decent money, then u can use ur own money for long term investments, or use loans for day trading so u nver hav to use ur own money. u can easily go bankrupt doing this tho"

K. replied: "Other than selling stuff (like on eBay or Amazon), most "make money online" sites are a scam, and a waste of time. I've looked into some of them, and every one is the same. This is no different than playing the lotto - you want to make money without putting forth any effort or money. You want a way to quickly and easily make a bunch of money without any effort or thought. Just stop trying - you'll save a ton of time, and possibly avoid a few dangerous scams.Most people I know (myself included) would love to magically get a bunch of money, because most jobs suck, and we as a society are dependent on money to buy our happiness. I'm not criticizing you, because I've wanted exactly what you're looking for many times. But I've learned that it's not going to come. Other than rare occasions, money doesn't just fall into your lap, and when it does, it's not from any "get rich quick" schemes - it's pure chance and you cannot expect it or make it happen. If it does, great, but it probably won't.If you want to make money - think of an idea that no one has thought of before, and market it, or something like that. Or take something that already exists, and find a new use for it, or think of something that would be nice if it existed, and make it a reality.Also, don't focus so much on money - it's a complete illusion anyway. It's colored paper that is only worth what everyone says it is, and with the economy like it is, you shouldn't put too much value in it right now.You probably don't want to be a wage-slave and work at McDonalds, or even in some cubicle for the rest of your life, even if it pays well. If you do want income (which is rather handy, admittedly), get a job that you enjoy - try something different. If you don't like it, quit and try something else. Never keep a job just because you feel like you "need the money" - don't sacrifice your happiness for colored bits of paper - life's too short for that. But don't expect free handouts or quick riches - that's not how things work. Just be happy, and trust that things will work out if you want them to. Be willing to work for what you want, and don't sacrifice your happiness to an illusion."

You probably ought to ask someone who is an accountant (or works for one) in your area, rather than depending on what people say here. They may or may not be correct."

linluv2001 replied: "depends on your filing staus and alot of things"

Judy replied: "Depends on your marital status, number of dependents if any, if you're a dependent of anyone else, and any other income you (or a spouse) have. Also depends if you are considered an independent contractor or not.If you're working for an employer, are single with no dependents, last year you could earn $8200 before you even had to file. Anything under that you wouldn't owe taxes. You'd still get a W-2 from your employer at the end of the year showing your income and any withholding. If anything was withheld for income taxes, you would still want to file to get that money back. You might also be eligible for something called the Earned Income Credit which is a program that gives additional money to low income people who are working - if you don't file, you don't get that.If you are a dependent of someone else (like your parents) then the filing limit would be lower. And if you're considered an independent contractor rather than working for an employer, you'd be responsible for paying both the employee and the employer parts of Social Security and Medicare taxes.But if you're an employee, single, and not someone else's dependent, then you won't have to pay taxes if you're only making $100 a week. The limits will go up a little this year from the $8200 last year, but I haven't seen the new numbers out yet.The above info is for federal taxes. Depending on where you live, there might be state and/or local taxes that you might have to pay."
