Free Money?

Anyone in the mood for giving a young aspiring bass player some money for gear? I need a new amp and i have no way of making money.

I know this may not work but i just wanted to see what people would say.

I'd say it's an infraction. I think.

There are ALWAYS ways to make money, I am sure you have plenty of older people around that would pay money for small chores, but like most things, kids now-a-days expect a handout.

I remember when fundraising meant selling something to make money, not standing at a retail store begging for it.

suggestions:

Paper route
Life guarding
Cashiering at like a pizza place
Od jobs for old people

If you really can't get a job you can:

Ebay crap you don't need
Drink water with lunch and save a dollar a day for a few months (I was $200 short of my Conklin when I was in HS so I ate soup (with lots of free crackers) and drank water everyday for 2 months and I manged to save an extra $100 and get my bass a month sooner.)
