Mowed lawns after age 12. Had 4 neighbors and made about $40 a week at the peak of summer.

    You ever scrounge for lost cash? Swimming pool change rooms and the return slots on vending machines were my go to. Usually never found much more than a few coins, but sometimes you'd find paper bills!

    Yup, we used to get all our arcade quarters by checking all the coin op lockers, especially underneath if there was space. There used to be at least a simpsons arcade games worth for my brothers and I.
