How to make money?

[Mr Snuffles]

I need some advice on how I can raise £2000 in around a year.

I am 15, 16 on the 25th of June 2011, and I currently can raise about £15 a week off odd jobs around the house. But over this period of time I can only get about £750 off that!

How would you suggest that I could make some extra money?

Sell drugs to your school, or college. They'll be in that phase where they think drugs make you cool, there was a guy in my school that sold cocaine to people like that. He got caught, because he was a dumb ****, but he made money.

I live in the countryside so that COULD work, but people might be wary of some random kid showing up and asking if they want their lawns mowing.

Also I forgot to mention that I need the money to apply for the course for a british skydiving license =D

Continue doing odd jobs such as mowing lawns. You could also babysit...

If you want to go a bit further, you could chop off some hair and sell it on Ebay. There's tons of wig-makers who will pay for real human hair.

EDIT: Since I now know that you live in the country, you could talk to some local farmers about doing grunt work.

Make a simple indie sandbox game with a short and catchy name.
Sell said game in pre-alpha for ?10.
Wait 6 months, releasing occasional updates.

Get a job someplace and work long hours? I don't know what the wage of the average 16 year-old would be in the UK, so I don't know if my idea would be the most sound.
