Yes there are several that do not require you to sell anything or buy anything simply share. They can be run part-time with only 6-8 hours per week needed. I was able to retire at a early age due to the success of a business I started from home and now help people do the same. I am always available to answer your questions and help in anyway I can.

Answer 4

I know a lot of different people who needed to make extra money on the side for different reasons.  What a lot of  people did was start a small business on the side, running it out of their homes to generate the income that they need.  They worked it around their current careers right from their homes. Home based business are not difficult to do.  The income opportunities are incredible.  A lot of people find it's better economically speaking to make money on the side this way, then spending the driving time, gas and the hours and the low pay.  Home based business, you have the opportunity to make as much money as you want, same income opportunity as a traditional business without all the over head expenses.   If your going to get a part time job, it's more Practical to have your own business and put the same amount of time and effort as you would a normal job, but get more out of it.  Not just the income part of it, but once you start a home based business, just about everything in your home that you use every day becomes a tax write off as well.  Things like your telephone, electricity, Gas, Internet, cell phones, auto expenses etc etc.

  There are so many different home based business to start up. Things from Child Daycare Centers (you would really need to make this a full time job though), catering, kitchen appliances, Telecommunications, fishing charters ( You'd need to make this a full time job), Candle Making, Travel agents, Tax Preperations, Health etc. Most home based business cost under $500 to start, which should include all your billing, customer service, Inventory, Accounts payable, payroll, accounts receivables, employees, workman's comp, licensing, etc etc.

You usually don't make money the first day you start a business.  Just like you don't bring cash home from a job on your first day. You have to build up your business,  no matter what business you get involved in. The more effort you put into it and how hard your willing to work it, will depend on when you start making a sufficient amount of income. The more you put into it, the more you will get out of it. Depending on which one you get involved in, it usually takes about 2 to 4 weeks to start making an average income. This is about the same time frame as a pay roll period in a normal job. Then it's about 4 to 6 weeks to increase that and 3 to 6 months to be self sufficient. The average time span to make build a business that's solid and generates the higher end amount of money takes between 3 to 5 years.  But within 6 months you can make a sufficient amount of money for yourself to survive on. If you put the time and effort into it. That's the key thing right there, is you need to put some effort into it.  A few hours a day is all you need to do.

Most people start their business on the side of their current careers and build their business.  When their business reaches the income level they desire, they put their normal jobs down and continue working out of their homes with an industry. This can take from six months to a year to be able to do.  Some people have done it in less, but they put a lot of effort into it.
