£5

Hi

so my exams are over and its summer etc.
to top it all off i now receive pocket money of £5 a week, which is a substantial increase...from 0
But i've been so out of touch with the gaming world and all of that, haven't touched my dsi in like 2 months, this is also due to the fact i gave my acekard 2i to my friend...got some money out of him though...which i spent. I may as well have been hiding under a rock, i had no idea what the playstation vita was, or if the wii u was a joke, but what i do know is that i want to get my hands on the 3ds, all my friends are buying one and with my current financial situation, I'll have enough to purchase one in say 40 weeks. Now, Im as patient as the next guy but i do realise that i may need to apply for a job of some sort in order to reach my goal in a more suitable time frame. But don't get me wrong i do give a share of my money to charity and everything. So i guess im just looking for some general advice. It's hard to find employers who take on 15 year olds what with all the insurance stuff. A job would be great though because it would probably help me maintain the balance between going out and buying stuff. On a more lighter note though, since my exams have finished, i have time to play with my band.
I'll put up videos if i have time in between looking for a job and fixing a guitar i was meant to fix a month ago for someone... :mellow:

Bye

I think your only real option would be a paper round of some sort. Though you may only earn like £10-£15 a week depending on how popular they are around where you live, it would still really speed up that saving.
 
go to programming competitions like I do (I'm 13)
but I don't know if there are programming schools for 15 year olds in Britain.
Still gives me a 3*3ds award for 1 year when I win a medal.
 
ill take a look at programming, i've always wanted to start it...but just never got round to it

Easier than expected :P[/quote]

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!

Please, at least tell me it's not VB. You'll find it harder to move onto proper languages than if you just jumped straight into C/C++ and it'll take longer.

Free basic. I already tried other languages before, but I couldn't organize my code. The code and stuff wasn't hard, but just the general 'coding' stuff was kinda hard. And thus, I am now doing free basic and next I'll get back into flash. To finally create my HUGE AWESOME-O-MOTHERF*CKINGTASTIC game. I mean really, I've got a really nice idea and I really want to execute it. :D

    Speaking of meatballs, what's the deal with meatball sandwich? How can people eat those? It's ROUND. Trying to bite those in a sandwich is a challenge. It's easier to eat a burger stacked with toppings. :ninja:
