I knew you two were alike.

I had a paper route when I was 12.
Do kids still deliver newspapers?
Came to mind because of this thread:

When we were kids my brother, our friends, and myself came up with all sorts of ways to make money. Our earliest was a kool-aid stand. Yes, really! We started out at 2 cents a cup, by the time we were 7 we're selling same stuff for .15. We also sold candy, with a 50% mark up. Yes, we knew our neighbors!
I was 7 when I got a job putting IGA grocer flyers on door knobs. I had to roll and rubberband them. I earned $4 a week, which was much better than the .25 my allowance was.
Around 9 we spent the summer washing cars for our neighbors, one guy gave us $10, Mr. Plumery, I still think of you fondly, RIP. The rest, I think paid $3.
I think it was the same summer my best friend and I baked bread with my mom. It was SOOOO good. We decided to sell it. So we went around for about 5 blocks taking orders and collecting in advance. We made like 10 loaves and that was that. We forgot to write the names and addresses.
We cut lawns and sold boxed cards from the comic book backs. Actually paid for a canoe trip to Canadian Waters back in jr. high with that money.
I left the world of self-employment at 14, got a waitress job. Really excellent money! #32 on the list from Chicago Magazine.

Same. Paperboy at 12.
I did basic construction work for my family at a young age (7-14), which paid pitiful wages ($80 for laying a brick path), but was better than doing unpaid chores.

Not around here, it's been taken over by the immigrants, in fact they shoved the Americans OUT of that job.
Why not? I mean, why did you work for the neighbors for free?even did it for the neighbors, didn't get paid there either.
The latter...though the neighborhood kids also got paid. The neighborhood was filled with GM employees...Either your parents were rich, or you were an only child.
