Calm down, mate.

You're only 13, and that's nice you want to work. However, don't push it too hard. Try to get something at school (they'll probably help you) and see what you can do together with your dad. In fact, talk to him and try to get some advices.

Remember not to put all eggs in one basket, and study hard even if you decide to work. If you want to get the tt's, don't dream too high - keep studying hard after you buy them and start DJ'ing just as a hobby.


(As for the mixes, don't expect to buy TT's with that... I too did this when I was your age and it was just an add-on for my allowance, in the end of the day)

if you're computer savvy, print ads about "need computer help and repair?" and such, and plaster them all over the city

EDIT: And the nearest airport is 45 minutes away, highway driving time.


i would consider doin jobs such as a greeter at a restaurant you know ppl own or work for. Age isnt a concern with that job.
