7 Easy Ways To Make Big Money While You Sleep

i remember being seven years old, living iniran, and my father would take me to one of my favorite places. it was an indoor swimmingpool. massive indoor swimming pool and they would make these special drinks that i loved.and there was a man there who was a good friend of the family. they now live in southern california.love their family. and i remember that every time i would speak to this man, he would alwaysgive me so much respect. always give me so much respect. and on time he sat me down andhe looked me in the eye and he told me, "patrick, do you know why i respect you so much?" andi said, "no, i really don't know." he said, "because one day, you're going to lead theworld. because one day, you, as a seven-year-old, are going to be a 25, 35, 45-year old leadingother people. i want to give you respect from

now." i get the chills every time i tell thisstory, all over my body. you see, because, any president in the world, any great ceoin the world, any great entrepreneur in the world, at one point was a teenager with adream and a heartbeat, thinking, i want to do something big in my life. i want to makean impact in my life. how do i do it? so today's message is directed to teenageentrepreneurs. and by the way, if you're watching this and you're not a teenage entrepreneur,share this video with teenage entrepreneurs that you may know, or even teenagers thatwant to figure out a way to make more money. i'm going to share 14 different ideas thatany teenager can put in place, and start making money today. because i'm talking from experienceon how i started making money at ten years

old. let me start off telling you a couple of waysthat i did it. i remember being ten years old running a recycling business at a swimmingpool, local in germany. i remember being 13 years old, going around all over the place.i had a point here, so i want to go with the first one. the first point for teen age entrepreneursto make money -- it's something i did. and i'm telling you, i didn't grow up in awealthy family. some people that are watching this may say, "i'm from a prestigious family,i would never bring myself to that level." that's totally fine. i'm just telling youhow i made my money. i was 13 years old, living in glendale, californiaand i had a friend of mine named adrian. we

wanted to buy this card of sergei fedorovand sergei fedorov at that time upper deck came out. some of you may know sergei fedorov,their rookie card was a fascinating rookie card. we both wanted it and we wanted to buya box of upper deck and split the 36 packs, 18 and 18 we'd split it. and so when our parentswould go to sleep at night at 10, 11 o'clock, we had a shopping cart. i'd go grab the shoppingcart and we'd go to all the local -- this is what i did -- you don't have to do this.we'd go to the local trashcans and we'd collect either the cans or two liter bottles. andwe would collect them, we'd go to the local albertson's and recycle every single one ofthem. we'd make five bucks, and we'd do that a few times a week. eventually after a month,you have about $100. and you can buy cards.

whatever it was, that was mine. today, there are many other ways to do this.if i was 12 years old today, 11 years old today, 13 years old today, i would go to everysingle person in my community that my parents approved of -- you've got to make sure yourparents can say that you can talk to these guys, and you've got to make sure you getthe confirmation from your parents. but i would go and i would ask, hey, do you mindif i collect all your cans and i would give them special plastic bags or boxes for themto put and you'd come and clean it for them, except you're recycling. and i would bringthat back, and have bags and ask my mom or my dad to take me to the recycling place andi would recycle and take that money, so one,

you're being a positive, great citizen tosociety because you're cleaning the place out and number two, you're making money fordoing that. that's one of the ways that any, any, any teenage entrepreneur can make money.you may say, "pat, i don't like that idea." stay with me. second idea. here's the second idea. socialmedia. most adults have no clue about social media. i tell you no clue. when i say adults,i'm not talking about 22-year-olds, i'm taking about maybe 35, 45. it's not that they don'thave any clue -- but most of them don't know a lot about social media. and you would beamazed how many of them are intimidated by it. for instance, this whole idea came aboutbecause i'm on snapchat and i'm pretty active

now on snapchat. i'm on a 90-day health transformationprogram. i'm trying to get to a certain shape that i've never been before and i want toget to that. so every morning i post my pictures on what i look like, and it's not the mostcomfortable thing to do, but i want to get rid of this gut. i want to get into very,very good shape, just like i used to be at 21, 22 years old. and i'm starting to dialoga lot with people that use snapchat. [why don't we pull up my snapchat code so otherpeople can use it as well. and follow me on snapchat. i'm very active on snapchat.] andi'm getting a lot of teenagers that would message me and say, "pat, can you do a videoon entrepreneurship for teenagers? pat, can you give us some ideas? i know you talk alot about business and scaling and how to

do this, how about me? i'm 14-years old. iwant to find out how to make money. how can you help me?" so the idea for this video camefrom snapchat because i got a message and i responded back to it and said, "let's makea video for this." now, i didn't know how snapchat worked. letme tell you how i learned about how snapchat worked. i'm in bakersfield once -- mario,were you with me in bakersfield, when shawan was right next to me, and i said, shawna,show me how to use snapchat? and he started giving me ideas about snapchat. [mario: yes.]then i go to florida and was spending time with phoebe, she is now i want to say 16 yearsold and for 30 minutes, she showed me snapchat. she's 16 years old, i'm 37 years old. sheshowed me snapchat, right? "patrick do this,

here's how this works, you need to do this,you need to do that," and we went through the whole thing together -- you can do thisand you can put your finger and do this. all these things she taught me, i know nothingabout it. and by the way, let me put it to you this way. i would have paid $100 for that.i would have paid $100 for that. you may be 13 years old and watching this and say, pat,c'mon now. you'd pay $100 for that? yes! yes. if you go locally, and you tell your mom anddad, "mom, dad, can you start telling friends and family that i'm going to teach everybodyabout social media and how to use instagram and who do we have that's business owners.can you help me out?" parents don't mind helping you make money. so then you go out there andstart talking about how to use this, how to

use that and next thing you know, you're making$50 here, $100 here. there's even a guy, my pastor's son who started teaching other people-- his name is dallas -- who started teaching other people how to get a following on twitter.how to get a following on instagram. how to get a following. . . he started really doingso well that other people started paying him $300 a month, $200 a month, $400 a month fordoing this, and now he's got a business for himself. and every single month he helps increasefollowing and i know a lot of teenagers know how to increase following and exposure, thatmaybe adults want to know how to do. i will tell you, if i was 13 years old today, ifi was 12 years old today, if i was 14 years old today, i would be making at a minimum,$2000 - $3000 a month just teaching adults

on social media and it would not be a hardthing to do if i was that today. now you may say, "pat, i don't want to dosocial media." no problem, i've got another one for you. fiverr. let me tell you about fiverr. canwe put a picture of fiverr up here so they know what it is? fiverr is a website for freelancers.and you may ask, "pat, but for fiverr you have to be 18 years old." no you don't. forfiverr you have to be 13 years and older to be on fiverr. now you need parent approvalto get paid and all that other stuff, but you need to be 13 years old or older as afreelancer on fiverr to make it work. so what can you do on fiverr? here's what fiverr'sall about. you're a good writer? you say,

and the last point, point #14, here's point#14. this is my favorite one. and let me tell you, teenagers watching this, we are countingon you to help us out with this and there is a lot of money if you figure out how todo this. ready? grab a pen and paper. you can do it with your parents. you can do itwith a couple of peers. you can do it with a sibling and write down the most common problemsthat teenagers face today. i'll give you a few of them. write down the most common problemsteenagers face today and how can you be the solution to those common problems. ready?let me help you out. bullying. cyber-bullying. how can you help with that? #2 could be drugs,cigarettes, alcohol, believe it or not, nowadays it's out there with everybody. sex, peer pressure,dating. i know most parents don't want to

talk about this. it's out there. more aretalking today than before, but it's out there. so how do you fix that? how do you talk aboutthat? how do you create a business out of it that also serves and helps other people?peer pressure, comparison, constantly being compared to other kids, appearance, self-esteem,career, eating disorder, grades, fitting in, problems at home, broken homes, financial.it doesn't matter what it is. these are the problems, and i want you to sit because yourmind is extremely creative, and unfortunately, teenagers watching this, the world is generallygoing to force you to no longer be creative. you keep being creative. take your mind andsay, "what if we could do this? what if we could do that?" and then all of a sudden,oh my, we can do this. and then see if there

is a way of turning it into a business. generally,it could cost you $500 to start a business or $1,000 or $2,000 or $800 and you can goto uncles, local people helping you out, and the next thing you know, you're starting somethingsmall that ends up being something big. is it going to work 100% of the time? not atall. but guess what? quit quitting. keep going with it. you keep doing it and all of a sudden,some idea could end up becoming so revolutionary where we're reading about you on forbes magazineor inc. magazine or entrepreneur magazine or somewhere online that you created somethingthat is being used around the world. because we're counting on you to come up with newinnovation that we can use one day ourselves. so with that being said, now that we havethat down, we've got 14 different points,

there's a couple of things i want you to do.most teenagers that choose to become entrepreneurs -- you've got to think how entrepreneurs think.now this is for young entrepreneurs but teenagers nowadays are starting to read business bookslike never before. i wrote a book with a very good friend of mine called tom ellsworth.tom ellsworth is famous for being part of jamdat and he was one of the seven partnerswhen they sold jamdat to ea sports for $680 million. he's a very good friend of mine.he's the president of our company now. he and i wrote a book called the life of an entrepreneurin 90 pages. this is because of a video that we produced -- mario, when did we launch thevideo? october 31, 2015 that got 28 million views on facebook. we decided to write a bookcalled the life of an entrepreneur in 90 pages.

it's a simple book. buy this book. read thisbook. any young entrepreneur, anybody watching this ought to read this because the chapternumber one is probably the most important chapter and this is one of the reasons whywe put the chapter in there and it's called the truth: accepting reality. it's a difficultchapter, but it's a very important chapter. i wish i knew about that early one when ibecame an entrepreneur. buy this book, let's put a link somewhere on here. if we don'thave it here, we can put a link on the description and if it's on my website, it will be on thedescription as well for you to do that. go, read the book the life of an entrepreneurin 90 pages. and if you're watching this and you're not a teenager, please share this videowith other teenagers that can apply some of
