  2. YES but you don't find them in adds trying to talk you into it.The rule is if you haft pay

    to get the job,it's a scam.

    Contact some large compies ask them if they have a program you could do.

    Or you could start your own.paint house numbers on  curbs in  front of the house.

  3. The Internet has simplified everything from shopping to banking and now even employment has been made easier because you can have a job online. That is right, as amazing as it sounds you can work from the comfort of your home, while traveling<!--or anywhere you have a computer because your job online only requires you meet deadlines. You can work whenever fits your schedule, meaning you have more time for the important things like your family and have your job online to help pay the bills. You can visit this site and know how to earn money online, there are actually so many different ways,

  4. There are many work at home jobs that are for real BUT none of them will make you rich with no work or effort on your part.  

    Here are some possibilities.  You could answer phones, make appointments, send out bills, call to remind people of bills, do data entry, help set up or keep up with a web site for a local business in your area.  You would be sort of a remote or virtual assistant.  Whatever business skills you have you may be able to find a way to do the same things at home as you would in an office. This is especially needed by people who are in sales, construction, etc who do not have someone in an office or at home to do thise things.   Start by asking people you know that do that kind of work if they need a part time helper who will save them the office expense.  

    You can do child care at home.  Check your state laws.  Generally you need a license for anything over 3 children and there are health and safety rules and you need to know CPR.

    You can learn to make websites and do web design from home.  You can also make crafts and sell them on a web site or at craft fairs.  You do NOT usually want to get onto the assemble products at home things unless you personally know the company or people who are doing it because there are so many rip offs.  

    You can offer a service of holiday card addressing, on line shopping, etc.  for people or small businesses who are too busy to do all this and still enjoy the holidays.  

    Then there is the whole field of network marketing.  Some companies like Avon you do need to sell and keep on selling.  Others like one we do to raise money for our ministry you can do on line or asking them to listen to short calls that explaining the program and/or by inviting people to go to local meetings where someone else does the selling.   The one we do works well for us because it provides a needed service that people are happy to learn about and pay for and contrinue to pay for month after month year after year bringing residual income. It is not a perfect company but it has aq long successful track record and the ppl who woprk for it get paid on time the way they are supposed to.We have not made a huge lot of money but for the time put in it has been good. If you want to know about this you can email me through Yahoo Answers.   Be sure you check out any such company well and my suggestion is that you avoid start ups because there are so many of them that don't make it and you end up loosing out.

    A lot of people make money selling on ebay. A friend's sister gets name brand jeans on sale at very low prices (keeps the receipt), puts them on EBay for near the regular price and whatever she can't sell she has the receipt and can return.   Others sell craft type things that way.  I've never done it but some say they make good money.

  5. There are legitimate work from home jobs but its very difficult to differentiate them from the scams.  You can go for the ones that do not require you to pay out any amount, and if they give you a form or ANYTHING at all that requires you to put down your signature or give your personal details, make sure you bring it to a lawyer first and get legal advice.  

    However, if you really want to work from home, why don't you start your own home business?  Its actually easier in some respects.  For example, if you are artistic, you can make little bookmarks, gift boxes, greeting cards etc.  Ask around your area whether there are shops willing to sell your products.  You can also sell them online.  If you're a cooking person, start cooking classes or a catering business.  Likewise, if you do well in dressmaking, get orders for that.  If you have a computer at home, and you do word processing fairly well, take jobs typing letters, preparing proposals and other types of documents for small businesses or individuals.  You can also get jobs from college / university students, typing up their assignments and projects.

    Another way to get some extra money coming in is to offer to do for others what you are already doing for yourself.  For example, you already go shopping for groceries.  Offer to do shopping for senior citizens or neighbors around you, for a nominal fee. Since you're going there already, its no extra cost to you, but you need to be organized and make sure that you get people's orders right.

    It could be anything, as long as you are organized, you do it well and you are brave enough to tell people that you're doing it.
