Most of the so-called online opportunities I have found require investing quite a bit of money up front. I have none to invest. And, in these days of high gas prices, it just makes sense to try to work from home. I would like some suggestions of legitimate work from home jobs, if anybody has any. Thanks a bunch!!

  1. Sorry, but I don't know of any that are legitimate.

    Can you do daycare out of your home?  What about cleaning houses?  In my area, housekeepers make $20 to $25 an hour.  That's pretty good, considering they don't have much invested in their equipment.

    Good luck.


  2. Nearly everyone has given thought to the idea of being able to work from home, and many of those people are actively searching for something just as you are. I mean who wouldn't want to right?

    That being said, it is possible to find an actual work at home job, it just may take some diligence & patience along with applying to multiple companies before you may find one that hires you.

    As for the many opportunities that you have come across that require an investment in order to get started, these are actual home based business opportunities. And granted most of us didn't or don't have money & that's why you are looking for something to earn some extra cash from home. The reason for the start up costs is because unlike a job (even one from home) where you are paid only for the time you put in or are scheduled, with a business of your own like what you find online often, you are paid residually meaning once you do the work, you will continue to be paid for as long as that business or customer continues to take part in whatever it is you are offering.

    The best all in one site for you to get all the information you could ever want or need to know about the wah world is http://www.wahm.com

    There is a wealth of information there. And one place on the site you will want to visit is the Forums/Message Boards http://www.wahm.com/forum

    Look in the Telecommuting Folder for info on different wah jobs, etc.

    And there are multiple other folders pertaining to other at home biz opps, as well as personal issues that you may be able to relate to, such as bloggers, single parents (for me), etc.

    Hopefully this helps to answer your question a bit. Good Luck in your search and if there is anything at all that you'd like to ask me or if I can help, just let me know.  

  3. This is the question that most of the people asks and this is the answer I give them.

    If you want to make money without any investment then you can earn through surveys, if you want a list of websites which pays to complete surveys then get a list sites from here...

    www.FreeSurveylist.co.cc

    Make more than $10000 per month for what you are doing now... Get details at

    www.SignupDollar.co.cc


  4. if you are looking for something ethical and interesting as well, i must tell you, long term steady income require some patience and dedication.. fast and easy money are mostly scams..

    I suggest you setup an online store, or start a blog and monetize it. Both these options are free to start. Its interesting and fun as well.

    I wont spam with any links here, Check my profile for useful links if you are genuinely interested.

  5. If people are telling you that you can earn thousands of dollars a month, they're lying and probably trying to scam you. The only real way to earn money online is with PTC sites and it's completely free. You can earn 100-200$ a month or even more. There's lots of info about that topic on this blog, you should check it out

  6. Hello

    For your knowledge, you can never do any work without investing money at first. If anyone said you will not invest, so he is a big liar!

    By the way, I am recruiting people these day to work 3 hours a day as a marketer for a hosting company.

    You will earn a minimum of $400 a month and till infinity.

    It's a 7 years successful business.

    Okay, what is am i offering??

    I am offering to teach you privately, step by step from scratch over Yahoo Messenger, how to make from $400 to $80,000 a month, through many levels. how to design websites (as my websites)  how to drive traffic to your websites (how to let people see your pages) and how to make the best professional advertisement all for free.

    I will teach you how to UPGRADE YOUR SYSTEM ( after your first earnings in the very near future, I will guide you to a higher level, which you can earn from it double!)

    I am not selling you an e-book, I am selling you nothing actually. I am giving you the opportunity to reach the top of the ladder, ME AND YOU.

    Making money over the internet is simply an EQUATION! but success is never an equation alone, it must be mixed with WILLING and VISION.  

    If and only IF, you can DREAM, BE WILLING and VERY SERIOUS, sign in to my website.


  7. As I have already answered your other question:

    Most of them are scam.. they ask for upfront payment and guarantee that you'll cover it in days.. but then they disappear..

    elance and guru are good option you can try to explore others as well.

    List and links of some genuine surveys can be found here: http://genuine-surveys.blogspot.com/ and links for genuine data entry jobs can be found here: http://genuine-dataentry.blogspot.com/ also list of some more free writing jobs can be found here: http://freewritingjobs.blogspot.com/ they are all free to sign-up and seems legitimate so far to me.

    p.s. sign-up with a new email id, as you might receive a lot of junk mails no your email otherwise.

    most of them will send your money by paypal

  8. You're not going to become an overnight millionaire, but if you can make $200-$300 a week by filling out surveys. Go look at this ehow article on how to make serious money online. http://www.ehow.com/how_4492298_real-eas...

    I use this program myself, and have earned a pretty good monthly income. Good luck!

  9. Hi Pinklady,

    First, never, ever pay to get a job! Legitimate companies will not charge you to work for them. Finding these companies can be an overwhelming task, but I have a good resource for you.... http://www.workathomedesk.com is a free site that has an excellent directory of companies that hire home workers and also has frequently updated job leads. The only expenses you should have to work from home are high speed internet and equipment like a headset. Hope this helps. Good luck.

  10. I'm trying to start my own business as well. Try getting a grant. I'm trying to get one myself and the good thing is that you never have to pay the grant back. Good luck!
