How to get enough money to buy a Nikon camera?

My sister keeps asking me how she can earn enough money to buy a camera since I'm all big with money (is $100 every month really big?) and keeps asking my mom for a Nikon D5000, D3100, or D3000. She's only 12, so I don't see how she'll get money only from birthdays and christmas. She got $100 on Christmas, but our mom took it…
Anyway, she wants one for photography and good focus and I'm considering buying one for her. But the $100 i get is for my college fund, clothes, food, the regular stuff. She wants a $500-600 camera! Right now on me I got $4.

Put your money in your college fund. Your 12 year old sister does not need a $500 camera until she can afford to buy one for herself.

Thats life you don't always get what you want. But if you want quick money make a sign that says "hungry anything helps " then go to your local wal mart & stand there w/it.

Does the word "work" mean anything? Earning money?

Ask in Employment or Social for ideas on learning money, specify where you live (town, state, country). But I agree that a 12 y o doesn't 'need' an expensive camera - if she wants one she too should earn it.
