Basically you find a good spot near lots of people and you just do
tricks and stuff and heckle the crowd that ensues for money.

Just be careful check your local laws about busking. In some areas
busking is considered to be the same as panhandling which is often
illegal. Other times you may be required to have a license from the
city which may or may not be easy to get or affordable. In some cities
the fines and the cost of the license can be so prohibiting that it
basically drives away any buskers.

Chicago people need a $100 permit for outside and a $50 for the subways
to busk. 🙁

Today was tiring and i had to work fairly hard and there was alot of
competition cos there was like 7 buskers not including me and theres
usually bout 3, probably cos its school holidays. i made 58$ bucks
today which is 17 more than my goal. I got no notes today but i still
made enough. I found out that i get more money by juggling on the uni
while riding (i idled and juggled which i dont do much cos im not good
at it but today i was 😄 ). At the end when i was tired, i just juggle
3 balls in a popular spot and did mills, windmill, shower, half shower,
3 ball throwup start, under the leg, under arm, low juggling and
columns, i did that for bout 20 mins and made about 5$ 😄 .So yer im
happy that i made 58$ so tommorw i need to make a minimum of $22 😄
but i will still try to make 40$ so i dont go behind. At first for like
45 mins or 1 hr i made 13$ and i thought, oh [censored]...im not gonna be
able to make enuff money but then i found a good spot and i got lots 😄

Yer i can make 70 bucks in 2-3 hrs but it really depends how much
competition there is and the people that walk by.
It only costs me $2.50 for a permit and not $100
I saw a statue guy today and if you put money in he would juggle 5
balls or something then he would go back to being a statue.
Theres also a guy on his bmx that duz stunts and gets heepsa money,
probably 100-300$, anywhere between there.

LOL he made more than that I think idk more like a grand wasn't it

whatever

Its not a bad way to earn money just find a good spot where lots of
people will see you. make sure you can keep the crowd entertained and I
would think you would make alot on a unicycle.
seriously anyone can do it.
It might get tiring though

I see you're only 13 aren't there any age restrictions for you to do
this, and do you need a parent or guardian with you at all? Anyway
that's good money congrats! Many years ago I performed on the Venice
Beach boardwalk as a ventriloquist. I had a mic and a whole set up with
lots of variety going on, like taking ppl out of the crowd and making
them "talk". Think on a good day (about 4-5 hours) I made maybe $150.

I dont think theres a limit on the age my freind got a licence when he
was 17 I think. look onlineHe did it during the taste of chicago.

My freind/and surfers friend was very popular he even made the suntimes
in a color photo. but I would expect that a unicyclist would be pretty
popular as well.

Good luck with the project.

One thing I have noticed with unicycle performers is that they
sometimes confuse the difficulty of an action with the appearance of
difficulty. I've seen people ride in circles and never thought
anything about it until I started learning to ride and found that
wasn't easy (for me, at least) to do. Riding an Ultimate Wheel may be
hard, but it just doesn't look hard. Hopping doesn't look too hard.
Dragging the seat doesn't look hard. Juggling does. Riding a giraffe
looks hard. Keep in mind what non-riders think of it.

Unicycles may seem pretty amazing to non unicyclists but ive seen some
buskeres make more than me like this band that played digeredoos and
banjos BUT there was 4 people so they would divide that which means i
wood probably make more. there is 1 guy on a bike and duz stunts as i
mentioned before he gets 100-300$

And about the age thing well
now that im 13 (i was 12 like a week ago) i can go busking bymyself but
i dont cos its too difficult to get down there (its not like im gonna
walk to adelaide from here because its a 1 hr drive.)I prefer to bring
my parents anyway cos there helpful and u never know what can happen
down in a capital city. theres some weird people, emo's and gothics (i
saw them having a party with party hats and had half eaten cake on the
ground, man there weird......), gangsters (1 gangster on a bike did a
massive jump over my busking hat where ppl put money in :o ).Since i am
a kid, i reckon people give me lots of money. (especially young teenage
girls, 1 girl put like 20c in and she said to her frend, i dont want
too look like a stinge! so she put more money in 🙂 )

20 hours from now and im on day 2!

There was a guy in Venice beach years ago that became pretty famous as a
street performer; he juggled a bowling ball, an watermelon and a chain
saw...gas powered and running at full speed!

He appeared on Johnny Carson's tonight show in the mid to late 80's and
bragged about the all the money he made...the IRS were apparently
watching that night. Slapped him with back taxes he failed to
report/pay, and huge penalties. Since then, he kinda disappeared from
the public arena.

😄 😄 😄
Activity- unicycling on giraffe while juggling and 40-60 mins of
juggling
Time busking- 3-4 hours
Money Made- 92$ !!!!!!!!😄 !!!!!!!1😄 !!!!!!!!!!😄 !!!!!!!
Crowd- LOTS
Competition- not as much as yesterday so an average amount of other
buskers😄 😄

day 1 i made 58, today i made 92$ so thats $150 and i aimed to make
only 200$ out of the 5 days so ive worked out that i only need to make
50$ in the next 3 days (which will be so easy and ill get more than
200$😄 ) which is 16.65$ per day 😄 so i can be assured that i will
have a nimbus trials ISIS WITH MOMENTS!!!!!!!

anyway i got lots of postive comments and there was lots of people and
not as much competition as yesterday. there was a 10 year old girl that
was watching for like 10-15 minutes lol. there was also a little asian
girl that was like half def and kept saying "wha" (what) and she kinda
kept running in my way but not for long.

11/10

This is a really cool writeup, its great to see that you can make some
money doing this. Kinda makes me wish I had a giraffe and some better
juggling skills.

Do you have to heckle the crowd much or do you just do your thing?

Good luck with your next days, maybe you can even afford a full KH or a
CF base!
