At Home Jobs

This is also a good place to post at home jobs you are doing or look for at home jobs.

A lot of people who don't wish to have a business are looking for at home jobs because of economy, age, disability etc.

When looking for at home jobs, please be sure to go with legitimate, trusted websites that offer job listings.

Don't pay for a job, although, you probably will need to pay to have access to the job listings. That is understandable, as it is someone's way of earning a living, putting those listings together.

I have done research and found some sites I trust to be legitimate. You can take a look at view link

There is a difference between "jobs" and "business opportunities".

It is very important to avoid most of the ads that are really not jobs at all.

Legitimate business opportunities do not try to fool you into thinking you are going to get a secure hourly paycheck like you would get if you are hired for a real job.

Legitimate businesses will tell you right up front that they are businesses and not "jobs".

How do you know what sites are legitimate work-at-home sites??

Well, first of all, if you are "working at home" and it is not a job, you are running your own business.

So to tell who is "legitimate" you ask the same questions you would ask if someone offered you a regular business with an office or store:
"What am I selling?"
"What are my costs?"
"How will I do this?"

If it is not a legitimate business, the first thing you will notice is that they will not want to answer these questions.

So if you can't tell who is "legitimate", you should at least be able to avoid the obviously "illegitimate" while taking a second look at the ones who answer your first set of questions.

Now there are real "work at home" jobs but you usually have to be actually hired and trained in some office and then qualify to telecommute after they know you can do the work. You can find those kinds of listings through regular employment agencies.

Medical transcribers, for example, are often "work at home". You would expect to see the same paperwork such as IRS w-4 forms that you would fill out for any regular job.

Legal & court offices also use transcribers.

If you are any good at an academic subject, you might contact colleges and high schools to see if teachers need test-correcting help. That is time-consuming work and can be done at home and some teachers might pay for that so that they can spend more time with their own kids!

These are just two excamples off the top of my head.

Indyalice would you please do a post on SFI, explaining it in more detail? I signed up for it a long time ago and I guess I missed something because I thought it was just selling their products and it seemed like all they did was want me to spend money on stuff.
I know it's legitimate and has been on the net a long time but with just a sign up page that doesn't explain anything a lot of people hesitate that might be missing a good opportunity.
Thank You!
