We all start with school then go to college and university to have a degree just for one reason (to make money) which is very important in our lives.

Some people start making money beside their schools, some start when they are in universities while others wait for their university graduation.

I think it would be better to start doing a job whether it is online or offline when you are a school student because schools will not teach you how to make money, you need to do it by yourself and find out the ways how money works, if you have good business idea you can start it or wait until you save some capitals for it.

Investment is also a great idea for students in order to have a good income but investments need some knowledge and researches that should be done.

What is your idea about this topic? When should someone start making money?

It's not uncommon for young people to start making money in some way as soon as they are old enough to do so. This could be through part-time work, freelance or contract work, or by starting a business. The legal working age varies by country, but in most places, it is around 15-16 years old.
However, it's important to note that making money should not be the main focus for children and teenagers. It is more important for them to focus on their education and personal development at this age. That being said, there is nothing wrong with young people finding ways to make money as long as it doesn't interfere with their studies and they are able to balance their responsibilities

When it comes to making money, there is no one-size-fits-all answer. Everyone’s financial situation, needs, and goals are different, so the best age to start making money varies from person to person. That said, there are a few key points to consider when deciding when to start making money.

First, there are legal restrictions in place that limit the types of work a person can do based on age. In most countries, minors under the age of 18 are not allowed to work in certain industries and may need to obtain a work permit. Additionally, some jobs may have age restrictions or require that a person have a certain level of experience or qualifications.

Second, consider your personal goals and needs. If you are in need of some extra money to cover basic expenses or help you save for a major purchase, then you may want to start making money sooner rather than later. However, if your main goal is to gain experience or build your resume, then you may want to focus on internships or volunteer opportunities.

Finally, think about how you will make money. Will you pursue an online job, take on a part-time job, start a business, or invest in the stock market? Each option requires a different level of effort and commitment and can yield different results.

Ultimately, the best age to start making money depends on each individual’s situation. It is important to consider legal restrictions, personal goals, and the type of work you are pursuing before making a decision. With some research and planning, you can find the right opportunity for you.

There is no set age at which someone should start making money, as it can vary depending on the individual and their circumstances.

Some children may begin earning money through allowance or part-time jobs while they are still in school, while others may not start until they are in their twenties or even later.

Additionally, some people may begin earning money through self-employment or starting their own business, while others may work for someone else. Ultimately, the age at which someone starts making money will depend on their personal goals, interests, and opportunities.

It's important to encourage children to learn about money from an early age, through allowance, chores or small jobs, so they can develop a healthy relationship with money and the value of work.

There is no set age at which one should begin earning because it might vary depending on the person and their circumstances. Some people might start making money at an early age through part-time work or their own businesses, while others might wait until they are older to start doing so. However, it is beneficial for someone to begin earning money as soon as possible as it helps them learn the value of money and how to manage it. It also help in gaining quick financial independence and forming wise financial practices like saving and budgeting. Starting to earn money at a young age can also help to prepare for future financial responsibilities, such as paying for college or saving for retirement.

At what age should a person start enjoying life ?
There is no particular time for a person to start making money as long as there are basic needs for the person to satisfy even if such a person is being Cartered for by his or her parents. One day is coming when he or she will be independent of him her self. So I can confidently answer your question that whenever a person is capable of making money such a person should start immediately.

He doesn't matter whether such a person is mature or immature, in school or not. as long as the person is able and willing to work to make money then he or she should start.

For example, a person who knows how to write sales copy that converts shouldn't hesitate to start making money with this skill whether such a person is a student or not that doesn't matter.

I think that people should start making money when they feel ready for that. There is not a set age. Perhaps, they can start making money while being at school or college.This will help them become more mature by saving some money and controlling their expenses. There is a variety of online and offline jobs to choose from. I believe that online jobs are ideal for them because they will be able to work from home. However, this job must not interfere with their studies or school. They must focus on their education first.

Age And Money Making​

Does age has a role to play in money making?


Age can be a factor in money-making, but it is not the only factor. There are many people of all ages who are successful in making money, and age alone does not determine one's ability to do so. Factors such as education, experience, skills, and opportunities can also play a role in money-making. Additionally, age can also be an advantage, as older individuals often have more experience and established networks that can help them in business and career opportunities.

There are a few ways in which age can be a factor in money-making. For example:
  • Young people may have more time and energy to devote to building a business or career, which can help them to achieve success more quickly.
  • Younger people may also have more flexibility in terms of taking risks and trying new things, which can be beneficial in certain industries, such as technology startups.
  • Older people may have more life experience and established networks, which can be valuable in certain industries such as real estate and finance. They may also have more financial stability and resources to invest in business or career opportunities.
  • Age discrimination can also be a factor in some industries and job markets, making it harder for older workers to find employment or advance in their careers.
However, it's important to keep in mind that these are general trends and not always the case. Many successful entrepreneurs and business leaders have achieved success at a young age, and many older individuals have successfully transitioned to new careers later in life. Ultimately, it's not age, but the individual's skills, mindset and attitude that will determine the success in money-making.

Age does not matter when we are talking about making money, both online and offline, because I have seen so many millionaire at their early ages as here in my country a person name Zia Geek he made million of dollars through Upwork. So we should not give up even if we are in old age and didn't get breakthrough, in old age success I know the example of the owner of KFC who get the breakthrough at the age of 80. So we need to work hard in all ages no matter if we are young enough with very less experience or we are too old.

When it has to do with money there is no age set for it, gone are the days when people wait till their 30s before hunting for money.
In this civilized world we are, the best time to start hunting for money is from an early age, at least from the secondary school level is ok, student in the secondary schools are not excluded when it comes to savings and investment,.

Age does not matters when it has to do with making money because everyone needs money, your services might be online or offline, but the point is that money must be pursue and made and the best time to start is from an early age.

It depends from many factors so some people have their parents poor and unable to provide them pocket money for studies purpose so you can see even 10 years child working in summer to provide himself with money during all scholarship time because his family is unable to do this, I know this is against laws and regulations but does the country find solution to provide them with good money for such cases? The short answer is no. Even help to poor families is not something meaningful.

You have a very valid point here. It is quite unfortunate that some kids are not even up to the age of twelve before they begin to make money by themselves. We see some kids begging on the street because they just need to put food in their stomach.

Some people did not choose the life that they are living. It just happened to them and they just have to live with it. This is why we sometimes see children who are still very small hawking on the street. They just have to find a way of making ends meet. That is very important.
