Answer 2

1. Respect your mother...

2.  Do you get an allowance? If you do, save some of it so you can buy your turtle some fish.

Seriously, if you ask nicely she might give you a bit of money. Do you help around the house? If not, ask your mother if you can get a few bucks by doing house chores.

google is your friend, use it.

Lettuce is good.. Do you have some?

Next time you have a few dollars, try getting some feeder guppies and setting up a seperate area where you can breed them and raise your own feeder fish.  A female guppy can drop between 5-50 fry every 30 days, so with just 3-5 females and one male, you could easily raise enough fish to keep your turtle fed without having to keep buying fish all the time.  

Or you could try putting up an ad on Craigslist or your local Freecycle group asking for feeder fish.  I know that I always have lots of extra guppy culls to give away that I seldom know what to do with.  If you lived near me, I'd be happy to give you some for your turtle.  ;)

In the meantime, feed your turtle some worms or bugs instead of fish.
