Another job you may be interested in is babysitting. These days, babysitters make ten dollars an hour. Offer to babysit for your friends on a Friday or Saturday night. The parents may be happy to pay you in return for this. For young males, they are not likely to be hired as a babysitter. There are some alternatives to this. Instead of babysitting, offer to mow lawns, wash cars or haul stuff out of a garage.
