I'm in a serious bind! help me, if you have a soul!

Question

well, this is not the typical question from me, but it is very serious too me and my life.

ok, i need $8,000!

the reason, well i need to buy this horse, george. he is the most perfect horse for me! he's an 11y/o liver chestnut, and he jumps 4' with ease, but can be trained to go higher. and he is the perfect gelding! he fits in perfectly at my barn(the one i ride at, and would board him at)! and my mom, my trainer, and my dad, and the current owner(i could go on 4ever) all say that he is the perfect horse for me. once again w/ the major problem, he's 8,000 dollars!!

i can talk the owner down to 7,000 maybe 6,500. but i'm at a starting point of $0. please tell me some ways to raise a lot of money, fast.

btw my friends are very willing, and ready to help me! and so are other people at our barn! please help me! it may sound stupid, but i've been looking for an appropriate horse for me to buy, for 5 years, and everyone who has met me, knows that we are destined to be together!

if you have any ideas (g rated i'm under 18) please tell me, i will be forever grateful!

please help, i'm desperate!

Answer 1

Try to find a job if you are over 16, but if you are 15 some grocery stores hire at 15. But that alone wont get you 8 thousand unless you wait more than a year without spending on anything else. Babysit a lot even if you might hate it, its money. Pass out fliers to people you know in your neighborhood who have kids and may need babysitters. Ask your parents if they have anything to donate to a garage sale. My parents always let me have the money after our garage sales so if you can dig up some stuff that may add a couple hundred. Walk dogs mow lawns anything you can do. You will pretty much need to be in money mode for a while not spending on ANYTHING. It will take a while that is a large amount of money for someone who is under 18 so work hard and don't give up.

Good luck

Answer 2

I wish I knew how to make $8,000 myself!! I'm always broke.

Maybe just beg your dad, cry a little, that might do it.

Good luck!
