LEGITIMATE WORK AT HOME JOBS?

Question

I'm looking to find a job that will allow me to work from home due to health related issues. I've heard that there are lots of scams, and I do not want to be robbed of my time or money. If anyone has had experience in this field, any leads will be much appreciated. Thank you very much!

Answer 1

I do not believe any of this.  You should call your local Better Business Bureau... I know they have investigated over 100 companies in my area (Seattle) alone and have found not ONE to be legitimate... I know this because I work there.... Also lots of work at home companies are built like a pyramid scheme (which is highly illegal)... So you can actually be prosecuted for participating... Stop being lazy and get a freaking real job!

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 bit 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

The work from home jobs that aren't scams actually require work on your part - and if you're in need of money soon then you're likely to be sorely disappointed in any of those as well. Most of the legit opportunities out there take time to build - so if someone makes an outrageous claim of income it probably isn't true ( and those that are true sure didn't make that kind of money when they first began ).

Time & effort required - but do your own research on what is best for you, don't take the advice of myself and others as gospel from this type of forum.

I have other ideas that may help - one of them is an online opportunity but another is one that will require a little effort to market yourself - try some data entry for local businesses, many of them don't have the time to do it in-house and will gladly pay someone else to do it. Professionals are a good place to start, lawyers, doctors, chiropractors, etc - they need their "in-house" folks doing other things rather than busy work.

There is a Home Based Career Center on the website below. Real jobs that you apply for online.

Medical Transcription is of course included – there is an online guide to becoming a transcriptionist -- but there are other non-health related fields as well.
