how can a 6 year old child make 150$ a month

10 year old sibling playing roblox on tablet in background<br><br>my 6 year old tells me:<br>i am poor i have no money, i dont have 20$ to buy a toy<br><br>me: why dont you go outside and earn money? do some jobs ? if you earn money you can buy that toy, if not you have to be patient and save your money from your allowance<br><br>him: i dont know know how ? i dont like going outside i get tired<br><br>me: okay then lets think together, ? if you were to go outside and earn money what would you do to earn money<br><br>him: i dunno<br><br>me: okay, do you like dogs ? if you like dogs i can ask my friend if you walk their dog you can have 10$ a week<br><br>him: yeah i love dogs<br><br>me: okay so if you walk the dog everyday for 1 hour, that will be 10$ and if we do it for 4 weeks you will get paid 40$<br><br>him: 40$!<br><br>me: yeah and if you save that money you will have 40$ to buy that toy you want, or more<br><br>him: okay okay, i want to walk the dog, but i still dont have enough money to buy that toy<br><br>me: okay i have another idea, if you mow the lawn for this other lady it will be another 10$<br><br>him: another 10$? okay i want to mow the lawn<br><br>me: okay so now we have 40$ from walking the dog, and another 10$, so we have 50$<br><br>him: 50$ ? WoW<br><br>me: but you still need 20$ to buy the toy, and if we add it up we dont have enough money, so we need to do more jobs<br><br>him: ok okay, i want to make 20$ more<br><br>me: okay, listen, if you sell lemonade, or help me do jobs on the weekends, or do other jobs, you can easily make 100$ a month, and 100$ is 5 toys, so if you do other jobs you can buy more toys<br><br>him: 5 toys! WoW<br><br>me: so now we have figured it out, you can walk dogs, mow the lawn, and sell lemonade, and that way you will have money to buy the toys you want, but you have to work for it, because that is what grown ups do, we work to make money, so now do you want to walk the dog, mow the lawn, and sell lemonade?<br><br>him: yeessssssi!<br><br>me: okay so this is how you can make money, but remember, you have to save money too, because when you grow up big you are going to need a lot of money for more important things, maybe a house, or a car, or college, and if you dont save money you cant do those things and you will be sad<br><br>him: okay i will save money<br><br>me: okay good, so now you know how to make money and save money, and i think you're a smart kid and you can do it<br><br>him: okay i will do it<br><br>EDIT: two days later i hear rumor that the 6 year old is asking neighbors if they want their lawn mowed for 3$, not 10$ ? lol so now he is scamming me ?‍♂️
