Where in the world does one find a job like that?

Here's a thought, I have been reading some of the posts that some of these new/young trappers have made and realize it is tough to start off getting permission to trap on new ground. How about picking up rocks on farm fields/ clearing debris for pay and possibly access new ground?? Just a thought but I'm sure offering to pick rocks and move fallen trees/branched for land owners and working side by side with them can open a few doors. Around here there are quite a few field loaded with rocks and in the Spring planting season often times there are fallen trees/branches that need to be cleared before planting. Now it is kind of late now, but you might contact some local farmers and inquire about the work and let them know about trapping/hunting permission and what you can offer...removing corn eating critters, hole digging animals, poultry killing predators, etc. I remember offering my beaver dam cleaning services at a few new properties and was received with open arms to trap/hunt. I know have access to more properties and have made some good friends...check it out. Do a good job and the word spreads quickly.

Mchewk that’s a good idea

Also savell since a lot of y’all are saying not to beat this kid up I guess I will let this kid go til he does something that pushes the limits

It is spring gardens need tilled, weeds need pulled, mulch needs laid, gardens and flowers need planted, gutters need cleaned, patios need pressure washed, pools need cleaned, driveways need sealed, weed eaters need ran...

Figure out how to be handy doing that stuff and go into town wherever you go to school at and start knocking on doors...

Somewhere in that town are woman in their late 40's needing all kinds of work done. That's your target demographic and you can thank me later young man. Good luck to you.

It is what has keep me alive since October 7 2007. I was a different person prior.

Military, police, ENT, etc.

Good advice OHIOBOY! Yep, lots of women that need help doing hard lifting type of work and general all around fixin'

If I was a teenager again, I would hit garage sales and buy things that I could sell online. There are lots of things sold at garage sales for next to nothing, which you can really turn a big profit by selling on ebay and marketplace.

I've done it with a few things that I knew would sell fast, but if I had more time I would get serious about it. I know a guy who makes a good living buying and selling sports memorabilia but man he really knows his stuff.

Get a few assistants and wash windows. Let a teacher be your first customer and she will tell the others. After the first year you will have enough repeat business to keep it going every year.

We use two men. They use a squeegee and a solution of water and Dawn.

All you need is a couple of ladders.

charles, thats a good idea i might actually do that

I'm gonna be Mr. Negative here, but NONE of the jobs ya'll suggested will be pursued by these young folks.

Their phone is taking up too much of their time for work or to pay attention in class.

Quit talking bad about them boys Uncle Swamp

I'm just recalling my youth....other than not having a phone....I was the same...lol

i will do the jobs listed

Without trying you could make $400/week mowing lawns.

Where in ohio are you?

If its doable, we'll pay you to dig ramps for us in the spring.

You'll make good money at it, guaranteed.

If you're interested get ahold of us next spring.

You can also dig roots, mow yards, and wash cars.

There's always someone needing fence built.

There are blackberries to pick and sell in season. also d i used to make grape vine wreaths and baskets sold them all over the county to floral shops made really good money .doing it.

Cleaning gutters and helping older folks get things done around the house.


Now one to make Savell proud. Do odd jobs for older ladies, and single mom's stay in good shape pay attention and you will learn a lot and make a little money. Know anything about cleaning pools for example?
