+ a million. People ask why teenagers aren't lifeguards anymore. I get that its because there aren't enough teenagers available to work in the summer, but I also think their wages haven't changed at all since I was probably a lifeguard, it was very good money when I was a teen, enough to support all the fun things I wanted to do during the year. Now, I bet you could $2000 even if you worked all summer. It's not worth it for teens![/quote]

My teen is a lifeguard.  They pay minimum wage, and are expected to do a lot more than just sit on the side of the pool--they clean it, obviously, but also have to do some amount of landscaping/mowing.  [/quote]

I know, but what I was a lifeguard we made more than minimum wage ($12  an hour or so in 2000) It was worth it to get certified and stay in shape and all that. You could also make more money by doing lessons and things.[/quote]
