Working From Home
Is it too much to ask to be able to work from the comfort of your own home. I have been unemployed now for the past month so I thought it would be nice to do typing jobs at home freelance, but every bloody time I check out typist jobs at home they ask you to pay money first. I have been to the work online at home sights, too many to count and all of them ask you for money. So when I came across a few typing jobs you can do at home on jobstreet no less and even the Star newspaper I was once again flabbergasted to see they to wanted money for membership, and the software. What a crock of shit. One even had the audacity to ask for USD100.00, not the fluctuating exchange rate but at the fixed rate of 3.8. So I sent him an email and told him I seriously wanted to work from home but I seriously was not going to fork out USD100. He replyed you can work from home for free but did I have email extractor, whatever the hell that is. So my search goes on. Yes I do want to work from home. How nice it would be to be able to sit in the comfort of your own home and work. Never having to fight the traffick jams again, no more pissant bosses who treat you like shit and make you feel less than useless and saving on gas. Is this kind of job a dream. I did fork out money to join the membership of one of these sights and to this day I have not made a single cent. That was last year. Online surveys where they promise you, you can make $5 - $25 per survey. So I signed up with a bunch of companys and to this day have not received a single survey. Or better still when you go into the free sights they tell you not available in your country. Great. My conclusion is all these sights are con jobs and they themselves make money from gulible idiots like me who are willing to fork out the money in USD no less.

Dont believe in all that, I was conned by one on the Star ad. I threaten to report to the police but I think the account they used belong to some old man not sure he still alive. Until now the ad is still on. I am tired to do anything about it.
Now I am working at home answer call for a company. Hourly pay.
Thanks Molly sure would be nice to work from home though.
You want a writing job? Well you're already doing it with this blog. You have a flair for writing. The blog just needs some minor polishing and your entries broken down into paragraphs for easier reading.
Write on a consistent basis like say a once a day, put up some ads (eg Google Adsense) and in a month or two, I'm pretty sure with your writing style, you should be able to pick up some income.
Keep up the writing.
Thanks Wilsonc you have really made my day,I will keep on trying after your kind words.
Due to circumstances work from home might not be suitable for everyone. For all start-ups you need to bear the radical changes in your life for the first 6 months to a year to get everything up to speed. Getting rich overnight is possible but you do not know the years of struggles others have being through before achieving success. I will not rule out that there are people out that who made it just like that, but what are the chances?
I recently come across a great platform which I will highly recommend. It is a good place to start. Lots of free and great content for starters. Details can be found on my website. http://opportunitycatalyst.com
