How my cousin made $300 a week(he is 14)

Hey guys so here is a small offline business you guys can do easily. So my cousin wanted to start making money but he isn't old enough to have paypal and crap so he was smart. He saved up his money and bought an old antique pinball machine. He then went around town and offered pizza parlour owners that they could keep it for 5 months and they would split the revenue. He would recieve 40% or whatever the machine made. Someone said yes to him and now he is making around $200 extra dollars per week, and he reinvests the money.

Try it out, and good luck.

    I could see that working, and I think it could be a fun way to make money in what is effectively a vending business. I like it! That idea could probably spawn others. Love the hustle of a young guy like that. Takes me back.

    Tell your cousin that Warren Buffet did the same thing as a kid, about the same age....(he's in good company)

    "In 1945, in his sophomore year of high school, Buffett and a friend spent $25 to purchase a used pinball machine, which they placed in the local barber shop. Within months, they owned several machines in different barber shops." -source: wikiepedia

    Your cousin has a bright future as a business man I made my first money around the age of 9 or something by selling some stickers I purchased from a store for a higher price to other kids. Making money myself by selling something was an amazing feeling. But then I went through the "education" tunnel and had to forget about my entrepreneur part for a long time.
