Mowing lawns, raking leaves, babysitting — these are time-honored jobs for kids looking for a little bit of pocket money. In some areas, other jobs exist, like shoveling snow or digging up bait worms. There are even jobs of dubious legality, like being a bookie’s runner or a gang’s lookout. Whatever your character’s choice of jobs, he reaps the benefits. He’s always got $10 to $20 in his pocket to spend. This money is his to spend however he likes, without asking anyone for permission. Of course, if your character doesn’t take the time to do his job, he won’t have any money.
