With what this guy earned from plowing snow, he could certainly make it rain.

An Idaho teenager says he raked in $35,000 in four days plowing snow for neighbors during the winter storms earlier this month, according to the Associated Press.

David Holston owns a plowing and snow removal company in Couer d’Alene, Idaho.

At the suggestion of a friend, the 18-year-old also took his equipment when he went to visit his mother in the Seattle area for her birthday earlier this month.

As soon as Holston put the ad up on Craigslist, he said his phone began ringing off the hook.

Charging as much as $750 an hour, Holston said people didn’t mind the price so much, as long as someone else was doing the heavy lifting.

Other sites like Homeadvisor.com list snow removal costs can range from $30-$400 an hour.
