I remember being in 6th grade selling Tech Decks (the toy skateboards). It was a big trend around 2007.
In 2007, OP wasn't born yet ;)

I don't have specific advice, just that it's good to see someone that young find their way here and start looking for advice. I hope you go far, @TheOneThatWin

How do I get rich, I’m so young and still in middle school
Read the books :) like @Kevin88660 said, you can try making some money at school. I remember being in 6th grade selling Tech Decks (the toy skateboards). It was a big trend around 2007. I would buy them at Target in packs of 5 for like... $10? Then sell them for $5 each

More recent example would have been those fidget spinners that all the kids wanted

True.

Also, going full nerd here, but after selling a few of these I ended up making my own out of wood veneers from Hobby Lobby, pressed together between the original plastic Tech Decks, even printed my own drawings on the bottom.

You could buy little pieces of grip tape online.

Read the books.
Teach your class/schoolmates. Afterwards go on teaching, translating. A classmate I had did that and has a business with about 200 employees. And a Ferrari btw.

Read books and sell lemonade to neighbours every so often.
Learn, educate yourself, and take action a little bit on the small things.
But don't go too crazy, enjoy your teenage years a little bit and be a bit care free.
There is more to life than business, and making millions of dollars.
Money will always be needed, and more money always helps, but life has plenty of other joys!

I would read books on the topic as others have recommended.

And I would make full use of still being so young by starting selling lemonade and other things that you can do in your neighborhood. Because you are so young a lot of people will help you out (by buying a lemonade etc.)... this is an advantage of being so young.
You will profit from it because you will get the most important factor of becoming successful.... actually doing something and getting real-life experience. Read books on the topic but doing something with the knowledge you learn is crucial.
