Going into my final years of school is stress in itself, Sharing and fighting for the computer with my sister is also a major pain in the butt.

Mum wont buy/rent a laptop for me to use for/at school because of current money issues and "I'll be on it 24/7"

I've been looking at parttime jobs and stuff so i can purchase one myself but it seems nobody is currently hiring, My domaining doesn't bring enough money in and my adsense is banned.

Do you guys have any other ways i can make some money to purchase a laptop? Any suggestions are appreciated :tu:

Apart from sell yourself? Or sell vital organs on the black market..
Have you tried a place which you may not like, but will ultimately give you the money you want.

My advice is: go to www.anything4free.com and join a conga for a free laptop.. a4f is a legit forum with plenty of info and help on which sites to use, which work, for free laptops, ipods, etc. You have to do an offer or two and get a few people under you, BUT people are getting these things for free from the LEGIT sites... a4f will help you decide which are legit or not.

Or you can always do a short-term fast food job.. there are plenty of decent refurb or used laptops that should be within your budget.

while it might take a little while, you could try developing some of your domains and flipping the sites, it might take a month, but if you could get 100-200 a pop easy if you do it well.

You can sell stuff online such as the T-shirts shop i got at www(dot)shirts(dot)ryansdistrict(dot)com
i am earning from this around 40$s / month not much but still good

another way do people online good work for example go to simplemachines(dot)org forum
you can there do simple tasks for people like installing forums and such stuff and earn some money

work on referral products if you got a good site
for example if you are banned from adsense use adbrite referral system
you can earn almost same as adsense + they got this referral system where you earn % of what the people you referral earned + if these people you referred refere others you still earn from others
BTW if you like to give me credit for this trick join using my referal :D lol (Read the rules)

If you dont want to work online
Teach younger kids do there homeworks and earn $s :)
If you play any musical instrument teach students for little all you know in one week you can earn easy 50$s at least
If you find such small stuff you can have your laptop in less than a month

Stick with the 'real-life' part-time or summer jobs, you can actually build up a useful resume in the future. I find it hard to believe no one is hiring in Australia though, as there must be plenty of students looking out for jobs. Take a look at your local classifieds

1; take a closer look at your local scene - there surely is SOMEONE having a job SOMEWHERE - from landscaping to janitorial work to maybe something steady.
(Polur is making a great point with being able to use it on your resume for the future)

1.5; Start your own service. Landscaping, shopping for older people, whatever may work in your area - simply put: get creative, get a concept, get out there.

2; you understand php, look more into doing coding jobs on the side. Maybe not writing the full code for a custom project, but modify existing ones to reflect what your client needs.

3; You're moderating a number of forum sections here on NP. There's a reason for that. Use your skills for writing, organizing (see Ethan Allen's Charity Auction) and start writing custom content for teen sites. There's a multitude of information on NP as to where and how to publish custom written content and make money by doing so. (also something to use on your resume)

4; I know you like music and want to have your own label one day: Ask for internships at record labels. Under normal circumstances, internships don't pay a dime, BUT, it gets your foot in the door for future (paying) jobs.

How about standing on a big intersection and offer to wash the windows from cars.....or standing on the street with a little stand and offer the "shell game" (you need to have certain skills for that) :)

I double that what Mike said, Landscaping is a good way but i wouldn't start a company right away, ask your neighbors if they need the gras cut, mowed...the most people posess a lawnmower so you don't have to invest anything else then your valuable time

Another way to make a few bucks, stand on the street and sell homemade lemonade, a lot of kids are doing that here,...hmm, but maybe they are making money because they are kids...so, go with the shell game then!! :)

Last advice: Move to Africa, they receive the $100 Latops from this great website: (http://laptop.org/) :)

Cheers,

Frank

LiquidCherry...Very Funny!!!

Hey, so if you're spending way too much on this site....
Get Off!
Go do something, Anything!
Handy work for older ppl. cut lawns, shop for ppl.
Clean their gutters, trim their bushes, how about painting...ppl. dont like to do it themselves, and there's no overhead.
go to local schools and volunteer, they have computer lab's and are always upgrading.
So, who knows...maybe you can get something there?
but it's not gonna come free just sitting on the computer.
Otherwise we all would be there, just collecting free laptop's!
Get Busy, & Good Luck,
Red Rock!
