I am older than I'd like to admit. I used to do lots of work outside my home helping people with problems. I worked as a social worker, a program director, a case manager etc. I helped to create many programs for people with mental health needs etc. NOW, I am living far from where I used to work. I live in the country and I am taking care of my 90 year old father. He needs me to stay close by and so I am looking for real work I can do from home. I need to make $1000 a month to pay the bills and have $ for food etc. Can any one help me out here? I am seriously our of money. I have gone through all my savings and it is getting difficult to keep afloat here. Thanks for your sincere responses.

If you are not afraid to do some work, and it sounds like you aren't you can find things that will pay at mechanical turk.com. The work varies so some of the jobs are worth the time and others not, but they are all going to pay you. It's backed by amazon.com and my fiance has already done some work and been paid for it there. The other thing I recommend and this one more so since you need fairly large sums of money is freelunchbox.com. You earn money there by working with other people and signing up for free or low fee trials and they pay you to do it. I've only done a few, but I did meet a nice lady there I could recommend you to work with, she helps you through the process it would not be difficult for you to make $50 to $100 a day doing this. You need to keep track of what you sign up for and make sure you cancel it. If you are interested in that I'll give you the name of the lady I know there who is quite helpful. I don't know if she'd want her name out on these boards so add me and private message me if you want her name. Good luck to you whatever you choose to do.
