When I was teen, I had a lawn mowing business AND a paper route. During casual conversation I would let my paper customers know I also cut lawns....since I already demonstrated responsibility delivering papers many folks would have me cut their grass.

I averaged about $18 a week delivering papers.......I averaged that each yard I mowed.

In HS I had a few customers.

Dad made me a trailer for my bicycle.

It held the mower, edger and big can (I even caught the grass clippings).

Always had plenty of money in HS. First thing I ever bought was a Realistic Astronaut-8 multiband sw radio. Still have it.
