I'm 13 and I'm trying to get two dogs, but I need $2,000 for everything. I tried a bake sale, no good. I can't sell my antique e1960 Matilda custom Ford van, it is a model van.

What should I do?

I think you will need to face the reality that you won't be able to get $2000 as it's pretty unlikely that you will.

$2000 isn't easy to get and many of us who work full time jobs couldn't come up with that in 3 weeks.

Mowing lawns, cleaning pools, fixing things, helping the elderly with errands, shopping, etc. Babysitting, sell something of value on craigslist, help others sell things on the internet for a commission.

Get at least a down payment, then bring it to a family member to prove you're willing to continue working your butt off to pay it back with low interest. It will be a great experience in obtaining and handling credit responsibly - you can use that in your sales pitch!

Good luck :)
