Some of them are helpful, I agree. I can't agree with people who say it's okay to pay those places to find you "work" though. If I go around home pounding the pavement, I can't imagine someone saying "sure, just give us twenty bucks and you can fill out our application."

I work at one of these sites. I did not have to pay any fee and I do make money. I;ve been doing it for a couple of months. Most sites are not trustworthy but there are a few good place around that you don't have to pay for and you do get paid. It's just a matter of looking.

I'm not saying that I make a lot of money but I do earn money every week.

I do odd jobs online. Mostly writing or surveys that pay real well.
One thing about working at home, theer are legitimate jobs. Telecommute work is popular, especially with the price of gas.

If you ahve to pay for access to jobs then its probably a scam. But theer are many telecommute thata re legit. I now that fo your willing to train medical billing and medical transcription pays very very well.

Another is writing and yet another is surveys. thes elast few only pay alittle each month.
If you have a degree you be a tutor. Even if you dont theer are many tutor services that are loking for people who can help and they pay well.

Working from home takes a little looking to find a legit job. But if you use teh right words then teh jobs abound. I highly recommend medical trasncription and medical billing for well paying at home job. work at your own pace and a few weeks training.
Wait i think i talked myself into that too......

That sounds great. I work form home and it is fantastic being able to work as much as I like, when I like and still have time with the children. It is less secure than a permanent job but I like the flexibility that it give me.

Working from home has the disadvantage of not having work mates with whom to socialize and in the long run that would affect you.
But for a mom is a better option than a leaving-home job ,at least till the children are big enough to take care of themselves . Is a sacrifice that is worth making .

I do my work in front of the computer so I would be one of those who "work at home". I do web designing and have my own website that makes money through ads.

Sometimes it gets challenging but at these times I just eat and try to recharge myself for another marathon in front of my computer.
