Medical transcriptionists works at home and make great money! Best wishes to you!  

Answer 2

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.

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

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.

I suggest joining some reputable work-at-home forums/communities where you can review or join in conversations with others in the same situation.

Unfortunately, many people have been scammed and some share their stories in hopes of preventing others from making the same mistake.  You'll be sure to find a lot of helpful information from the below sites:

Answer 5

Wow are you serious, I am sorry to say, but you are probably not very net savy, 91% of the time data entry on the web is a scam and you will probably loose your $197 unless you paid with a credit card, then the card company could possibly recoup your losses, you should research, and then pay, rather than paying and wondering if...........what you did was smart!!!!! duuuddhhhh

sorry hun....

Answer 6

Never pay anyone to get online jobs. Lot of ripped off stories I have seen on this section. Be alert and never be carried away. If you find some work, which do not ask any upfront you can register.
