I've been a successful super busy VA since 2003. It's not that hard. If you have administrative skills of any kind you can set up your own business as a VA. VAs are independent contractors who run their own businesses from home. This site is fabulous: http://www.virtual-assistant-advice.com with lots of info on becoming a VA. I would never go back to working in the city ever again, I love earning more from home as a VA, (I specialise in secretarial and transcription) no childcare costs, commuting, less taxes to pay as a lot of my expenses are tax deductible. VAs can specialise in so many areas, anything administrative at all can be outsourced to a VA, especially now in the financial crisis VAs are being utilised more and more.
