Get a job.
Problem solved.

EDIT: Fine i'll also post a kid-friendly method.
Bot.
Bot games, sell gold, sell items. If you bot runescape, you can easily sell gold and accounts to make money for paid bots, then set up a network and you could easily make a ton of cash. The only requirement is a good ability to buy and sell in an underground market. It's a pretty sketchy business.

botting is so being cheap but a nice idea

People around my neighborhood stand outside WalMart, Radioshack, and Gamestop selling pirated goods and what not. Its blatantly pirated too, no one seems to do anything about it. I would only sell to a secret circle, but you COULD sell movies, games, even cheap flashcards for the NDS (as much as I hate them). Hell, I've even been able to make some cash modding wiis/psps and jailbreaking iDevices.

ask friends for some help? 7 really isn't much especially if you can ask for a couple of bucks from 3 people, including family

Pirate minecraft, play on servers that don't require minecraft registration (for example... tempcraft)

Or, well, survey sites. Back in 8th grade I made about $500 off of them total. This in particular one pays out to paypal:

Hardmodding is a good way to make money. Softmodding for money is low. Your scamming people.

If someone can't do it themselves, and even looks at tutorials I put up to help people but still can't do it. Is it low? I don't think so.

Surely you know someone who wants a lawn mowed, a car washed, a fence painted etc?
that came to my mind but it hard to get that money to paypal after they updated their services

To each his own. I personally would not charge people to softmod a Wii, NDS, PSP etc. because it is super easy and they could easily do it themselves.

Example of one of my tutorials:

If they can't do it after that, $15 and I'll go down there and do it for them.

yeah, for you, and me, and a lot of other people, but some people really just can't do stuff like this. Kinda like old people but not actually old.
That being said, I probably still wouldn't charge somebody unless I didn't like them or something


OT: collect cans if you live somewhere that will give you money for them

Oh yeah, I noticed that, but then I forgot when I actually replied, haha.

I would do what somebody said before and do survey sites
