There are also some comment spammers there making it yucky. If you have to drop him from the top five, let me be the first to volunteer my blog for an up and comer! :) Nick <a href="http://www.kidreviewer.com" rel="nofollow">www.KidReviewer.com</a> I just visited the FunnyMunny.ca site you mentioned in your post, and it looks like the author has quit blogging.

I hope to connect with other kids taking blogging seriously. I would like kidreviewer.com to be considered in their company at some point, but I hope that they aren't all judged by how much money they make. I would like to get sponsors, and my dad set up adsense for kidreviewer.com, but I still want to write about a kid's perpective either way. I also want the practice writing, so by the time I finish high school I have mucho experience. They do have much to teach about building a good blog. I invite you to stop by and leave a comment.

What a piece of advice. I strongly agree with you on the point where you said that these kids should not avoid college just because they are earning more than they teachers, nor they must go like everybody else do it (learn something so they can make a live from it in the future). No, they should consider to do it because college or university can be really good places to improve themselves in many areas, including the business one (don't forget that Google founders were PhD students when they created Google) so they have not lose that experience if they can do it. @Jason, Jamie & Bobiin: Sorry, I didn't knew about those kids when I wrote this post. I'll maybe include them if I write a follow up to this post. @mdo: Yes, their age is their advantage but ultimately they are the best so they are noted among everybody else. And yes, since always have been gifted kids that are as able as the best adults in some field of human knowledge/activities, but blogging is just so new so these kids are the first examples ;). @Paris and David: Thanks a lot for your comments guys, you are tremendous source of inspiration for a lot of people (I’m between them ;)).

Quite a lot visitors are attracted by rumours about the blogs. I don't want to run down their work but think of all the other 12 or 13 yos. There are 12 yo pro dancers and 14 yo pro singers out there. Nothing new. Early teens can be good in many things. Their age is their advantage.

I can tell you from experience that when I first started out working for an internet company at the age of 13/14 (I turned 14 in my 2nd month there) I was being paid $1,500 a week in cash to come into an office and email spam for their adult sites. This was back in the 90's of course, and everything was so new and young that being at that age and making that type of cash was a new thing. Even until the age of 19, people still never took me seriously and would always judge what I knew or what I could accomplish by how old I was, and would always be reminded of it. You gotta give these kids credit. They are doing it on their own, and making bank from it. Sure, it's nothing huge, but the only bills they really have to pay now is the $8/yr for their domain, and their hosting bill (or at least payback their folks). They are doing better than most bloggers out there, that's for sure. The only advice I'd give to these kids though is that they shouldn't think that just because you made it big or made some money with one thing, that it will happen every time again. In other words, don't let it get to your head. When I started my first business, I failed, and lost a lot of cash too. I continue to fail sometimes too, but I see it as a good thing, as trial and error is a lot more valuable than you think. Also, I dropped out of college because I knew from an early age (and the cash I was making certainly helped) that I didn't want to be a doctor, lawyer, or even work for anyone again. Don't cross college off your list, but at the same time, you don't NEED it the way most people will tell you that you do. Save your cash, and write down all of your brilliant ideas now, so you can use them later. Alright, enough preaching from me. Goodluck kiddies. Say no to drugs.

I hope to be earning at least 2,000 dollars a month in assets. So on so forth :) Thanks for writing me up :P FYI: John Chow will be posting on me shortly for a second time.
