How would you make money with only 2500 dollars

So I'm 16 and managed to save up 2500 dollars. I want to make more money and looking for ideas. Not too sure about investing it because I have such little money and it's a bit risky. An idea I have is to scalp everything I see that will raise up in value.
How would you make money starting with only 2500 dollars?

spend it on making a mushroom-shaped stand, find a good spot on the street, and hire an elven woman to sell your belongings.

You should check out my website at www.financialbasis.com I have a whole bunch of articles there on how you could make more money/invest etc along with reviews. One thing I suggest also doing would be starting an eBay/Amazon business. I started out with $3,000 myself and I ended making $10,000 in profit selling anime (in just 20 months). I had $25,000 in sales just in this past 8-9 months and making 6 of the 10 grand during that time too. Naturally it depends on your business model, but if you ask me you won't find any gains like this by simply investing (Unless you get really lucky). Here's my spread sheet that I use to keep track of my profits. [url=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12ut4S5-uUElU-WAV3hQYJKVZG8bIrBe-UonvuUHnFF0/edit?usp=sharing]My Spreadsheet[/url]

Go to Cuba and buy cars there, sell them over in the USA. All the cars in Cuba are those really old ones from the 1900's which sell for a lot to collectors.

scalpers suck. i hope scalpers that bulk buy limited things end up losing money or not being able to sell their crap.

buy $1000 cars-- or of less value-- part them out and you can make around $1500~2000. Me and a buddy of mine bought 5 vw passats-- and resold the parts-- and sold all the parts for 9k from a 6k investment. it took us around 3 weeks parting out the vehicle and selling it. not to bad consider we're only 18-- in high school.

I'm 16 too and I have $7 in my pocket. Kudos to you

Idk, why not just put it in a savings account (or whatever does interest) and slowly build up money from working or whatever?

Start a portfolio. It's still investing, but it's still better interest than banks by at least double.
