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 elance 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

Answer 5

would you be interested in writing?

You could setup a blog or website, this is completely free. Once you have added some good content, you can start to earn money from advertising. I know you wont make a huge income from this, but it would get you started working from home.

Pick a topic which you are very interested in, and write a piece on that everyday.

I've given step by step instructions on how to create a website for free, and then add adverts to it so you can start generating income.

Any questions please leave a comment on this blog.

I've also found some useful information on these blogs, it helps you to earn small amounts of money from data entry, surveys, receiving telephone calls, reading adverts in emails and online selling.

That's awful that you've been ripped off. I'm so sorry for you. I'm with a great company that has only been completely fair and honest with me, they have been around since 1985 and have a great payment system for their workers. My friend introduced me to it and she has been with it for several years now and would never leave. I would be more than happy to give you information on it so you can make an informed decision as to whether it's for you. Message me if you are interested to learn about it!

Blessings!!

Answer 7

There are legitimate work from home opportunities that aren't scams.  Plenty of industries that you can either work for at home for minimum wage or work with that gives you the opportunity to make what you want.  These are home based business opportunities working from home, but not jobs.  They work differently, the income amount depends on what you do with it.  Several industries in this category. I think it's the best way to be compensated fairly by what you bring to the table if you do the work required.  I've had my home based business, well beyond minimum wage, and I know plenty of people who have theirs as well.  None of us got ripped off, so they are out there, you just need to look deeper.
