Teenagers are forever complaining that they do not have sufficient money. With inflation at its peak, the cost of living, education, food and clothes has increased. It is time that one stops complaining and find himself a suitable job. One of the most important things that a teenager may learn by taking up a job is responsibility and punctuality. They can learn to be independent and stop pestering their parents for money all the time. There are a quite a number of job options for teenagers who wish to make ends meet.

The internet is another good source of earning money. One can sit at home and make money the easy way. For the ones, who have flair for writing articles, they can take up freelance writing. There are many websites which exclusively cater to freelance writers. Everyday there are numerous topics on which articles are to be written and this will help one's knowledge base as he will get to know more about various things he was unaware of.

It is not just the internet that may cater to the freelance writing needs; several newspapers across the countries hire teenagers as freelancers to write in their regular or side columns. Due to their energetic and responsive nature the younger generation is always eager to pen down the curious incidents of day to day life, which may not attract the attention of others. If one has the proper writing skills and techniques, then it becomes easier for them to cope with the job. A minimum of school level education is a must for any kind of freelance writing, as it requires you to convey the details to a wider population.



There are various avenues that can be taken up through freelance writing. Thus a teenager must prepare himself for the opportunities that come along his way. If an individual can establish his writing skills and keep nurturing it with a fluent vocabulary and unique style, he gets a better exposure compared to his competitors. For this type of job, English or any language oriented background is always preferred as it speaks automatically of the individuals grasp on the language. Nowadays, people can also take up Mass Communication courses and pursue better opportunities from this field.

Once you are into freelancing you will not have to look back again, as the job promises several prospects ranging from a full time column writer to an editor. If you want to move further, then you need to work hard and build a reputation for yourself and manage a newspaper itself. However, all this comes with years of experience and strenuous labor and field work from the teenager's part. The payment one receives as a freelance writer is not very high, but once you start writing in regular columns you get paid for the word counts. An editor of course is much better off with a handsome salary.

Thus, if you have the knack of writing as a teenager and want to mold your career in this field, you can always start off as a freelance writer. The satisfaction that you would receive at the end of the day by looking upon your own column is second to nothing.
