Can someone under 18 make money on HubPages?

HubPages also requires you to be 18 to sign up. I'm not sure if people under 18 are allowed to sign up under the name of an adult with that adult's permission or not...

What with all the "how much money can you make here?" questions. I have decided to share some of my own experiences. Clearly there are higher paying pages than others, but as far as adsense goes, these are my three highest earning hubs this month:http://hubpages.com/hub/Foreclosure-Lis...

I am new to the site, and I was wondering how people make money off of their hub pages? I really like this site, and regardless if you can make money or not, I will still use it. I am just wondering.
