  1. I tried over 15 opportunities in the course of 2 years so I have some great information for you plus a list of top 10 work at home scams!

    I am a mother of two little girls who are actually tugging on my arm as I write this so I will try to be brief. Many people are looking for work from home companies. All the scams definitely create a big problem but also, there is a problem of people misunderstanding the difference between work from home "jobs" and work from home opportunities. There really are not work from home “jobs”. To get that you have to start working for a company in their offices first, then they MAY allow you to take the job home.

    Most of the work from home opportunities that are legitimate offers are not an hourly pay type job. They are business opportunities that help you in starting your own business from your home. What you should do first is to decide if you are simply looking for an hourly rate type job or if you are looking for more of an opportunity for additional income such as what you would make in your own business being your own boss from home. Small home businesses have some small costs involved, less than $500 to start is reasonable and I would stay away from those wanting $1000-$5000. It doesn’t cost that much to start and run a home business so you shouldn’t pay it.

    If you are coming across places that say free then I would RUN don’t walk the other way! They never are. I tried them many a times and 3 weeks later I had to buy this and 6 weeks later that. After 6 months these “free businesses” had cost me over $800 on average.

    After trying 15 things I now work about 18-25 hours per week for a National Medical Benefits Company. This is a nationally known and reputable home business which is what you need to make sure you are looking for. I have been with the company almost a year and a half now and I make over $4500 a month! In your first month, depending on how many hours you can work, I have seen people make anywhere from $500 to over $2500. And your income will increase each month because you get paid residual income as well.

    The best part is they have 401(k), direct deposit, life insurance and a benefits package most of which you get from day one. In addition, there are no products, no hard selling or pushing, no cold calling, no home parties and no telemarketing! That was VERY important to me. I absolutely love working with them and I can't believe I am making what I am making and in so few hours per week. The neat thing is there are other people on your team that you work with so you are never alone. You have great team support and you get to know the other people on your team pretty well.

    I was a bit apprehensive at first because I know a lot of companies are not legit but this company is the number one National Medical Benefits Company in the US. They are a member of the US Chamber of Commerce, and the National Association of Dental Plans and the owner of the company actually sits on the board of The Consumer Health Alliance to which we are also members. Also they were featured in “The New York Times”, “Wall Street Journal” “Time Magazine” “American Medical Review” and even in the May 2008 issue of “Parents Magazine”. Even “60 Minutes” did a big special on this home based business.

    Even more then all this is they are accepted at over 100,000 retailers nationwide. These are fortune 500 companies like Sears, Target, K-mart, Rite Aid, CVS, Wal-mart, Publix and more. These companies would never work with a company that was anything less than reputable.

    TOP 10 WORK AT HOME SCAMS:

    10. Craft Assembly

    9. Medical Billing

    8. Email/Rebate Processing

    7. "A List of Companies Looking for Home workers!"

    6. "Just Call This 1-900 Number For More Information..."

    5. Typing At Home / Data Entry

    4. "Turn Your Computer Into a Money-Making Machine!"

    3. Pyramid Schemes (this is NOT the same as Multi-Level Marketing MLM)

    2. Chain Letters/Emails ("Make Money Fast")

    1. Envelope Stuffing

    Please beware of these scams. There are some legit home businesses out there so be careful. Look for companies in business over 10 years. Look for companies with a needed product or service, something you would be proud to represent. Look for companies that have a national reputation and are members of the US Chamber of Commerce.

    As for those of you who say…..”I want to work from home but I don’t want to have to pay for anything”. Well, that’s great! But it will never happen. Let’s be honest, there is no such thing as a free lunch. If  it is a true honest home business you need to expect to pay. Mr. Walt Disney didn’t start the Disney empire “without paying for anything”. Neither did Mr. Sam Walton, owner of Wal-Mart.

  6. would you be interested in writing?

    You could setup a blog or website, this is completely free. Once you have added some good content, you can start to earn money from advertising. I know you wont make a huge income from this, but it would get you started working from home.

    Pick a topic which you are very interested in, and write a piece on that everyday.

    I've given step by step instructions on how to create a website for free, and then add adverts to it so you can start generating income.

    Any questions please leave a comment on this blog.

  9. Hi! You should never pay anyone to have a JOB from home. If someone is offering employment and asking for money then it is a scam. However, a HOME BUSINESS is different. If you and I decided to open up our own coffee shop then there would be start up costs right? It's the same for home businesses. You work for yourself and the income potential is unlimited. Not to mention the great people you will meet and the fun you will have along the way. You have to be sure you choose something you are passionate about. You can market makeup, candles, health products, etc. I chose to help people save money on their health care. There are many many people that need medical, vision, or dental benefits. 56 million Americans do not have coverage. Even more need a dental plan.

    If you would like to own your own business helping people save money on health care, please listen to a 15 minute recorded overview by calling 712-432-9598. If you love what you hear..then request an interview by visiting http://www.FreedomAtHomeTeam.com/TCothre... ,or call me at 1-866-400-8716.

  10. There are a lot of different work at home jobs out there.  I don't know what you can do though.  I don't know what your qualifications are, work experience and things like that.  I suggest you take a look at this article that explains a lot about work at home jobs, it also has a couple places in which if you qualify for the position, you can apply for and hopefully receive the job.

    Good LUck to you!

  11. I do business development consulting and I have set up a partner program that I am looking to pay someone to help me promote. All it involves is getting 20 professionals per week to sign up for my referral partner program (there is no cost to them at all, they just have to fill out a basic agreement and provide 1 client referal) I pay $10.00 per business that you submitt a completed agreement for. its a great way to earn a steady monthly income AND best of all it meets the three criteria you should check for any work at home job a) There is no cost to you - real work at home opps dont charge fees b) There is no selling involved  and c) it serves a REAL purpose - by setting up our referal network, it enables many start up and small businesses to be helped via performance based business development services. For more information, email me bizconsultant2000@yahoo.com or go to the website listed

  12. I've been doing some work with www.elance.com the past week, all the work is home based, data entry, transcription etc. The only thing is you're competing against people from countries where the hourly rate of pay is a lot lower, so not sure if it would be worth it for you.

    Also have a look at the jobs listed here, most are applicable to us,canada,europe, its quite good, thats where I found the above link.

    http://freelance-data-entry.blogspot.com...

    Its been updated today to include some Craft type jobs which can be done from home, mainly re-distribution, but it possible to make good money from it if you work hard.

    So many online jobs are out there. In fact, to do any online job, you need not want to invest anything. Make sure, you dont pay anything to get jobs online. It is just that need to pick the one that suits you the best. I hope this helps you and I believe you will find the online job that you love the most. Thanks
