    I'm 15 and my income varys a lot like two months ago I pulled out $500, but the month before that nothing, because my income isn't steady but most of what I earn I reinvest. I run directories, sell webhosting, do paid posting and some other stuff on the side like buying and selling domains.

    Everyone starts off with very little earnings. What skills do you have? acquiring useful skills helps a lot (for example: article writing, website design, graphics design). And an extensive knowledge on online marketing (simply read around DP!)

    I'd just like to say im 18 and can fluently code hmtl, css and notepad without a visual editor.

    My html is perfect W3C compliency aswell. Don't judge people on their age.

    My current monthtly income is very low however due to a sale of sites generating a high profit but substantial monthly profit drop.

    500 a pieces are possible if you find the right clients with high budgets ;) do you "Research" on them before you quote too low :p

    True.. not unless you show a high quality portfolio and tell them that's what they'll be getting. But in general, yes. Quoting too low can backfire..

    I am 15 and I make around $20 a month from doing offers.

    Although, right now I own a blog http://russellwagner.com and I am trying to make $$$ off that in the future.

    Have you tried DP :)

    For the higher paying clients, I get them from word of mouth ;) Best to work on perfecting your portfolio and then getting higher paying jobs!

    It's very inspiring to hear all the young people that are making money off the internet.


    Though, I have to say, I think it's rather stupid that people are saying "well, thats great that your earning $600 a month ... but will it pay the rent?", because most of the people are doing this on top of full time education, and i'm sure if they did do this full time, they would be able to make much more.

    $600 is not a lot.. not even $2k monthly :p But I think it's the hourly rate that counts. If they're working almost full time for $600 then that's not successful at all.. However, if it only took you 2 days to earn the $600 in that month, then that's quite good.

    I'm currently 18, but my entrepreneurial endeavors really started when I was 14/15... I was pretty much addicted to making money.

    Don't really think this is the place for an ePenis contest by dropping figures anyone can do that and not substantiate it, I'm just happy to see so many young entrepreneurs giving the business world a go :) keep it up guys.
