I think delivering the paper is a great idea. I would prefer an old beater car so I wouldn't rack up miles on my personal vehicle, but also you wouldn't have to put up with wacko co-workers, and an added bonus would be alone time to put your thoughts in order...

If it's a walking route, think of the added bonus of exercise. If it's a driving route, invest in a low gas mileage vehicle, so it doesn't add wear and tear on your personal one. I think it's a great idea!!!!

OR, you could ride a bike! Exercise AND you can go faster than if you walked the route.

A friend of mine did two paper routes in the mornings. Doing two she made more than she would working 8 to 5 in most clerical jobs, and she had her days free to do things with her children. She had to get up very, very early though.
