Twelve year old - any ideas for earning money??

dad-of-4

at that age i was up at 4am for my saturday morning milk round, for £3.50 the local paper shop wouldnt let me do a paper round properly at that age but would let me cover if the regulars were off. did a bit of car washing, gardening, dog walking, and even spent a day in a farmers field laying poisoned worms to kill off the moles.

My 12 year old was buying sweets and selling them at school with a great turnover till the teachers caught him and he got them all confiscated and was told he wasnt allowed to do it.It wasnt interfering with his school time , he only sold at breaks and before school - still school weren't happy. I thought he was showing great initiative and was improving his maths working out his profits etc!!

Well you cant really expect much else fom teachers can you? Thickest humans in the uk I reckon.
I met loads of them who had been missold personal pensions replacing their final salary schemes all of them thought they'd get a better pension with just their own contributions.

edit ... Yes including maths teachers.
