Everyone in this universe wants to make money, but it becomes very interesting if a “kid” wants to know how he/she can make around $100 a day.
Making $100 a day as a kid is a little difficult as they do not have regular jobs to earn that amount but don’t worry, we are here to help you. When I was a kid, it was so difficult to make much money being as a kid but today things are different. Kids have so many things to do to make money.
As being in the digital world it helps you to find opportunities, but I’ll help you with both online and offline opportunities. So that you can decide whichever is better for you.
This article is for both kids who want to grind at an early age, and for the parents whose kid is really smart and looking for opportunities to make some extra bucks.
Online Ways To Make $100 As A Kid
First thing first, you need to be very patient, as it would be very challenging initially. So, start working as a professional from day one. Work hard, and trust the process.
Before starting this topic I would like to share an example with you all, this would help you to expand your thinking horizon that age is just a number and you can make really much more than $100 a day, even as a kid.
There is a sibling who is making $30,000 per month, which means $1000 a day. Ishaan and Aanya (14 & 9 years) are from Frisco, Texas. They started mining crypto at a very early age from their home and later build a data center for that. Read the whole article on CNBC.
The main purpose of mentioning this example is to make you aware of what is happening around that world, so just don’t limit yourself or your kid from anything, motivate them to push their limits and nothing is impossible. With that said, let’s move to the main topic.
Start with small, and keep doing that until it’s BIG!
1. Mining:
After knowing about Ishaan and Aanya now this would seem easy to you. Mining will need initial investment and basic knowledge about the crypto market.
Choose a coin, install the setup and start mining.
If you don’t have that much money, and still wants to create a mining setup then read other opportunities to make money, make some saving, and from that money you can create your mining setup.
2. YouTube:
As of June 2020, it was estimated that nine-year old Ryan Kaji (Ryan ToysReview) was ranked first as top-earning YouTuber worldwide with earnings of approximately 29.5 million U.S. dollars during the measured period. – Statista
Now you can understand the potential of YouTube.
YouTube has become so popular these days that anyone can start and make money. You are very familiar with how YouTube works.
You need to decide on what niche you want to make videos in. Being a kid you may make videos of playing any game (if you play any). Just record your gameplay and upload them. Nobody is expecting high-end video editing skills from a 10-year-old kid. Just upload.
You can also make reaction videos, this is one of the easiest and most popular niches these days. There is a slight chance that you’ll start getting views from day one on reaction videos.
YouTube will take time to generate revenue for you, till then you need to keep posting videos every day (if you could). Consistency is the only key on YouTube to be successful.
YouTube has the potential that it will give you more than $100 a day even if you are a kid. Just work on your channel, keep hustling, keep growing.

If you love drawing or sketching then you have a very bright future but for now, you can make really good money with this skill.
The first thing is you decide whether you want to draw your illustrations with a pencil on paper or you want to make them digitally. I would prefer you to choose digital platforms as they will open so many opportunities for you.
Learn Adobe Illustrator and start making your designs.

Offline Ways To Make $100 As A Kid
1. Garage Sale:
Start with your home. Garage sales are the best you learn a lot of things along with making money. If you are done with your old toys and clothes then start selling them to the people that might pay for those things, which are of no use to you.
This sale will help you make money and will make you understand how to make sales. Learning how to make sales is the best thing you can learn ever in the money-making world.
Though you might end up making less money than you expected, the learnings from the garage sales will never let you down.
Benefits of Garage Sale
Once you learn the basics of a garage sale, you can turn this small thing into a big side hustle. What you need is to find another garage sale, buy stuff from there at a low price and sell that stuff on eBay at a much higher price.
This video by GaryVee shows the potential of this side hustle, and age doesn’t play any role in this. But first, learn
2. Baby Sitting:
It doesn’t matter how old are you, you can babysit even if you are 10-12 years old and you love to spend time with babies.
It might be hard for a kid to babysit another kid (a small baby), but parents might help you get this job. Parents must ask their friends, relatives, or even neighbors to all their children to babysit. This way you’ll also be comfortable and everyone else too.
3. Gardening:
If you are a nature lover and love to spend time in your backyard after your school then this hobby will help you make some bucks.
Look out in your neighborhood if someone needs help to water plants, check for weeds, and do a bit of trimming of some plants.
If you are a person who loves to spend time in the garden with plants then this job will be perfect for you.
Work for an hour on regular basis and push your limits on holidays, help 10 families to clean their garden and you’ll end up with $100 by the end of the day.
Some of these jobs won’t make $100 a day in the beginning but if you keep pushing your self and work full time on holidays you’ll definately make $100 in a day.
4. Tutor:
Learning becomes easier when someone of our age teaches us. Remember, we learn more complex concepts from friends better than experts.
If you are good at something, teach others. This will help you to master that skill, and you’ll make something out of that too, and on the other side, you are helping someone else to learn new skills.
Expand your teaching range from room to internet so that you’ll make a really good amount just by sharing what you already know.
5. Car Wash:
This is the easiest way you can make money in your childhood. Take the car washing kit with you along with a foam blaster car wash cannon. These are the only tools you’ll need throughout the process.
Ask 10 people and offer them to get their car washed for $10 each and by the end of the day you’ll end up with $100.
6. Walk Dogs:
If you love to spend time with dogs then it would be a difficult task for you to do. Just ask people in your neighborhood.
7. Sell Handmade Items, Crafts
If you are very good at making things out of waste material or from any other thing then you may sell that. Showcase your items to the people, show people your art, and ask them if they are interested in buying that.
Making money in the 21st century is not that hard which it used to be earlier.
Money Management
Making money is important but managing that hard-earned money is much more important than that.
Earning as a kid makes you independent at an early age, but this may mislead you to another path where you start wasting your money on satisfying your materialistic desires.
Desires are good, but you need to understand what is more important. Managing your money at an early age will make you a millionaire or even a billionaire very comfortably in your life.
So, start investing small but early.
Start Investing At Early Age
There are numerous benefits of investing at an early age. For instance, you are now 10 years old and making $100 a month.
Now you have to invest $12 a month for the next 40 years, which is totally insignificant amount to invest. You’ll end up with 1 Million Dollars at the end of 40 years. Click here to know how exactly it works.
Final Thoughts
Well, I hope till now you might have made your plans and have decided to start making and investing money for a better tomorrow.
Making money is not hard, but managing and investing in the right place is a bit tricky. Share your plans with your parents, ask them if they can help you to make better decisions.
Work hard, as well as smart. Be in the market, know the trends and provide value to your audience. Follow these things and nobody on this mother earth can stop you to be a billionaire.
That’s all from this post. Do share it, if you know any kid who can pull this off. See you guys in the next one.
