How can I a 14 year old with a dream to travel when I'm older and not work the rest of my life start making money now?
I don't have any cash right now and can't spend anything on marketing so I need to make money so I can travel and live my life when I grow up.

Hi Ellie! It’s great that you’re already thinking about your future and how you can start working toward your dream of traveling and having more freedom. Even though you’re only 14 and can’t spend money on marketing right now, there are still ways you can start making money and building good habits for the future. First, think about things you can do in your own community. Babysitting, pet-sitting, lawn mowing, shoveling snow, or helping neighbors with chores are all classic ways teens can earn money without needing to advertise. Sometimes just letting family, friends, or neighbors know you’re available is enough to get started. If you’re creative, you could try selling crafts, art, or baked goods to people you know, or even offer to help others with things like tutoring younger students. As you get older, you might be able to find part-time jobs at local businesses, especially during the summer. Also, try to learn about saving and budgeting early on. Even small amounts of money can add up over time if you’re smart about saving. You might want to set up a savings account with your parents’ help so you can start putting money aside for your travel goals. While you can’t do everything right now, the skills and work ethic you build at this time will help you a lot when you’re older. Keep learning, look for chances to help people, and don’t be afraid to try new things. You’re already ahead of the game just by thinking about your future!

Thank you for your question. I am glad to know that you like travelling.
Below are my suggestions :
1. Have you thought about having careers related to travelling? E.g. Travel Agents, Tour Guide, Work on a cruise ship, Pilot, Flight Attendant, etc.
2. Find out more on these careers and determine what you have interest
3. Speak to someone who are working in these careers. Seek guidance from your mentor, school career counsellor, your parents, etc.
4. Shortlist 1-2 careers you would like to puruse
5. Explore the entry criteria of relevant subjects in colleges
Hope this helps! Good Luck!
