I know a lot about this topic so please forgive the length of this reply. I have a lot of good info for you. I am a mother of two little girls who are actually tugging on my arm as I write this so I will try to be brief. Many people are looking for work from home companies. All the scams definitely create a big problem but also, there is a problem of people misunderstanding the difference between work from home "jobs" and work from home opportunities. There really are not work from home “jobs”. To get that you have to start working for a company in their offices first, then they MAY allow you to take the job home.

Most of the work from home opportunities that are legitimate offers are not an hourly pay type job. They are business opportunities that help you in starting your own business from your home.

What you should do first is to decide if you are simply looking for an hourly rate type job or if you are looking for more of an opportunity for additional income such as what you would make in your own business being your own boss from home. Many say a JOB stands for Just Over Broker and I have found that to be true as well. I never got anywhere working for others.

Small home businesses have some small costs involved, less then $100 to start is reasonable and I would stay away from those wanting $300, $500 even some asking for $1000-$5000. It doesn’t cost that much to start and run a home business so you shouldn’t pay it. The real ones will have a small monthly overhead as well. Should be around $50 a month but no more then $75. And everything should be included from your web sites to training and team support to back office accounting and booking. It’s ok to pay this overhead because it’s a business, they cost money. It’s not reasonable to assume you can run a business from home with a website and more for free so do keep that in mind as you search.

If you are coming across places that say free then I would RUN don’t walk the other way! They never are. I tried them many a times and 3 weeks later I had to buy this and 6 weeks later that. After 6 months these “free businesses” had cost me over $800 on average.

I’m a stay at home mom of two little girls as I mentioned, ages 1 and 3. I work about 15-18 hours per week for a National Medical Benefits Company. This is a home business, a nationally known and reputable home business which is what you need to make sure you are looking for. I have been with the company almost a year now and I make over $2000 a month! In your first month, depending on how many hours you can work, I have seen people make anywhere from $300 to over $3000. And your income will increase each month because we get paid residual income as well. If I continue on as I am going at the end of the year I will be making $5000 a month. My friend Becky from South Carolina started 2 years before me and she is now making $95,000 a year with this company.

The best part is they have 401(k), direct deposit, life insurance and a benefits package most of which you get from day one. In addition, there are no products, no hard selling or pushing, no cold calling, no home parties and no telemarketing! That was VERY important to me.

I absolutely love working with them and I can't believe I am making what I am making and in so few hours per week. The neat thing is there are other people on your team that you work with so you are never alone. You have great team support and you get to know the other people on your team pretty well. The support is great but I have made wonderful friends as well. I think that’s important too, especially being at home!

I was a bit apprehensive at first because I know a lot of companies are not legit but this company is the number one National Medical Benefits Company in the US. They are a member of the US Chamber of Commerce, and the National Association of Dental Plans and the owner of the company actually sits on the board of The Consumer Health Alliance to which we are also members. Also they were featured in “The New York Times”, “Wall Street Journal” “Time Magazine” and the “American Medical Review”. Even “60 Minutes” with Morley Safer did a big special on this home based business.

Even more then all this is they are accepted at over 100,000 retailers nation wide. These are fortune 500 companies like Sears, Target, Walgreens, CVS, Wal-mart, Publix and more. These companies would never work with a company that was any thing less then reputable. That made me feel very good about working with them knowing they were accepted at these stores that I frequent. Also now of course being with them I get the dental and vision benefits for free and I saved over $150 on my last visit to the dentist! That’s just a beautiful perk! : - )

When I first started I just felt very safe with them, that and my friend was already making so much money with Ameriplan. But at this point I feel a sense of security financially that our family has never had before. That plus LOVING what you do? What could be better?

NOPE.
If you deal directly with an employer, but none of these internet things. Usually happens when you work for some company, then circumstances change, and you continue to work for them from home.

I think chatsplas is right. For a "job" from home, you probably need to be valuable to a current employer and then you either move away from town - and they still want you to do the work, and send it in, or they downsize their offices and send everyone home to work on their computers.

Alot of people do "work from home", but the bulk of them are self-employed. Many Realtors work from home, people who own landscaping or computer repair companies, etc. And of course, multi level marketing distributors as well. None of these are "jobs" in the sense that you don't have a salary or an hourly paycheck, but rather earn based upon what you produce - any business owner works that way. There are trade-offs to this kind of work. Income - "The sky's the limit...... but so is the dirt" Schedule - Get some time off during the week on occasion, but need to be available to clients "when they're not at work". Direction - You are the boss. You decide where your company is going. Downside may be that you're not cut out to be your own boss - it's not for everybody.

Don't waste your time looking for internet "jobs." You'll just be bombarded with all kinds of scams.

Most work-at-home jobs that are advertised on the internet and now t.v. are nothing more than multi-level marketing schemes. These work out well for the first few people, but the rewards drop significantly as more and more get on board. Many of the work-at-home plans are also just scams, where all you do is sell the same scam that you buy into.

If you are really interested in working at home, I suggest you look at the following resources for some good info:

The Work At Home Sourcebook, by Lynie Arden, Live Oak Press, provides a lot of info on companies that hire people to work at home. These are not scams, but actual businesses like AT&T, GE, etc.

Then there is the home business route. This is the one I like best, as I do this myself. But figuring out what to do can be difficult. I suggest going to Paul and Sarah Edwards site. I've used their books for years and have nothing but good things to say about them. So start here: http://www.workingfromhome.com/
Good luck.

Honestly, I don't know any company that will hire someone that they don't know to work out of their homes unless you are an accountant or a tax person, or something in that line. You would be better off if you really want to work from home would be to start your own home based business. There are a lot of different things you can start up from your home. I'm not sure what your interests are so I really don't know what to refer you over to. I created a blog on my 360 page on home based business's. They're not "jobs" they're business's that you can start up in your own home that are a fraction of what it costs to start a business outside of your home. Depending on what you want to get involved in would depend on how much it would cost to start up. Most home based business's are under $500, with the income opportunity of a traditional business and same tax advantages. There are some home based business's that cost a lot more. Again, it depends on what you'd like to do. If you'd like some ideas of ones that cost under $500, take a look at my 360 page. If you find one that interests you, contact the person that posted it and they can point you out in the right direction. Most are simple to do.
If you can afford more than $500 to start your own business, email me back and I'll send you a list of different things based on where your interest lies.
Good luck to you
