All joking aside, I think what most of us posters are trying to tell you that it is possible to contribute to raising your own money. Sit down and write a list of all the things you do well and what somebody will pay money... If you like animals, maybe you can be a dog-walker, dog-sitter, etc...I remember my son, when he was a 14-18 used to be a dog walker in the neighborhood and made a quite a bit of cash, especially from our elderly neighbors. He became so reliable and trustworthy these same neighbors trusted him to take care of their pets when they go on vacations, instead of putting their pets in Kennels. I also, remember my son used to run errands for neighbors, so he was pulling in at least $200 dollars a week, along with what I gave him for allowance...So it is possible to make money...So sit down and think about what you can do and advertise your service...
