Don't spend it all on drinks as soon as you get it. Or get some nice rich freinds.

im going with the sell sweets idea...
u know those tubes of suger-sherbert stuff?
buy a hundred of those for a tenner, then sell them for 50p each over the course of a week...
voila, 50 quid!

whell, i started out with a shitty stem and 100 bucks, and ended up with a santacruz jackal, then sold that, bought a norco 416, then sold it, bought a dirtbike, then sold that, and am working on building another bike. I have had all that stuff, and all I really ever spent on it was a shitty $40 stem and a hundred bucks. just look for good deals.

lol i meant what sort of working i.e paperround, shelf filling etc.

Also looking for good deals doesnt actually get you money

I ask my parents and other relatives for money for Christmas, and I basically just save up my pocket money for a while. I also work around cleaning leaves, washing cars, mowing the lawn, etc.

I would work in a bike shop / fast food place / whatever, but the problem is I live in Germany and I don't actually speak German, which really limits my possibilities for working.
