The world has changed and so have the needs at every stage of life. No matter you are a teen or a grown up, there is one thing in common that everyone shares, and that is the need of money. I recently figured it out that most of my readers either are teens or those who have just crossed their teen age. I kept thinking how I can gift my readers with something that can turn out really beneficial for them and finally got the answer from my own life experience, let us talk about the ways by which a teen can easily increase his pocket money, keeping his studies smooth too. Those of you, who are earning, will agree with me on this point that earning money yourself and spending it has its own charm as compared to the monthly amount we used to get from our parents as “pocket money”.

The point is, the youth of today needs to develop a sense of progressing. Now the progressing can be of any level, that’s what we will see here.

Here are the easy and simple 5 ways in which the teenagers can start earning by utilizing their spare times.

1) Build an investing approach

The most important principle that is needed to be worked on – is the sense of money making. The Students often crave for an increase in pocket money despite of making a use of the money they already have. Always try to double your money with legal ways.

I have always found my seniors a better teacher than my professors, strange but true. Try it out. Try to offer tuitions to your juniors at school or neighbors and you can simply double your pocket money by spreading knowledge.
