Anyone know of a good work from home job?

I am a stay at home Mommy, and I wouldnt change that for a thing, however, I do miss contributing (financially) to our family. Does anyone know of a legitimate work from home job? Something that I could do on the computer? I have a small child, and my husband and I are planning on having another one soon, so anything that is truly "from the home" would be ideal. Im not into hosting parties or anything like that. Any ideas would be helpful, thanks.

    The Internet has simplified everything from shopping to banking and now even employment has been made easier because you can have a job online. That is right, as amazing as it sounds you can work from the comfort of your home, while traveling<!--or anywhere you have a computer because your job online only requires you meet deadlines. You can work whenever fits your schedule, meaning you have more time for the important things like your family and have your job online to help pay the bills.

    Pretty much all of thre "work from home on your computer" ads are scams. The exception is if there is something you did before in an office that can be done at home, particularly if your former employer is willing to hire you to work at home.

    Otherwise, you'll mainly get scammed out of your "signup fee" - if it were a real job, they'd be paying you, you wouldn't be paying them. Some say you need to put down money to prove you're really interested - that sure sounds a lot like the old pigeon drop scam of years ago.

    I personally know of two legitimate work from home companies. The names are West and Live-ops.They both involve taking inbound calls for Direct Response orders. You know the "As seen on TV" ads and infomercials that pretty much flood our channels. Well, most of those "shop at home"orders and customer service calls are directed to contractors who work from home not a call center. As a contractor you would be your own boss, setting your own hours and while fulfilling a contract through West or Liveops.

    All you need to get started is a separate telephone line (a land line other than your home phone, with no added features) and a personal computer ( no Macs ) that meets certain system requirements.

    These are definitely legitimate companies. I have a coworker and friend who contracts with West part-time. During the holiday season last year, in two weeks she made over $600, by activating Virgin Mobile Phones from home part-time(a couple of hours per day). She also has a relative that works with Live-ops as her full-time job and loves it.

    For more info just visit each company's respective website.

    http://liveops.com/ and http://www.west.com/

    Hope this information helps.

    The simplest and possibly the best is sell something on eBay. Sell some old souveniers or home made cookies or anything.

    After you understand the process and acquire a digital camera, tell your neighbors and friends. Do a local listing and fulfillment service.

    Finally, contact local businesses. Help them sell overstock items. Tell the salvage yard that you can sell Volvo airbags.

    If you have a hobby or can specialize, that's best.

    You could sell anything from Barbie dolls to baseball playing cards. Go to weekend swap meets and look for popular products. When tourists visit your area, what do they buy?

    Good luck,
