I have tried so many work at home things from mailing flyers to selling health insurance for an affiliate program. I got quite a few sign-ups but was spending as much on leads as I was making so there really was no profit. I've tried selling products through catalog sales, nothing I seem to do really works or I need to uch money to get it started and really advertise. Does anyone have any similar stories. Either sucess or faliures?

I haven't spent too much time trying to make money online....I have made a little here and there, but I don't make a huge amount. I personally like writing sites where you get money to write, and then keep on earning from views of your content. Maybe you could try that out to supplement your income?

It really isn't difficult. You just need to sign up for paying sites. My blog is an organized approach to earning online. I have international sites listed too.

if you say, really make money at home. then my answer is yes. but online money do not come fast, and you really have to work for it. just like here on mylot, you will be paid for your activity. if you don't work, you will earn nothing. but if you work hard, then money will come. though earnings here doesn't come fast, it still makes me money at home. mylot is not a get rich site in a flash. mylot is fun to socialize with other people, sharing thoughts and ideas. fun is number one, and money comes next, as a bonus...

I think that this is quite a difficult thing to do but there are some things that are quite possible and here's what I do. I obviously post away on My Lot and this is a great start. Also, I don't know whether you are into the second life thing, that virtual 3d world? Well, I got my first job in there, it doesn't pay much but it's another thing to do I guess. I tried distributing a home catalogue once but that didn't prove to be fruitful. I'm going to remain optimistic though! I probably devote most of my time to posting away on My Lot which is the best paying forum site I know. Andrew

I think to work at home, we need skills and hard work to make it success. Because its really hard to be an entrepreneur. For me working in home, if we just started it, it cant be considered to be the main job. Because there are too many risks to work only at home. But never give up, if you serious and you have skills to do that, with hard work, im sure oneday you can be a success person by only working at home.

you can earn a small amount of money in online but i dont think you can make very huge money in online unless you have some good skills and talent . if you have a good blog you may get good money . now a days some some companies pay for you if you do some job by sitting in home and then submitting it . if you have some some special skills like embroidary and tailoring you can do it by sitting in home .. there are lot of stuffs that can be done through which you can earn by sitting in home ... the most thing is that we should identify our skills and work accordingly ..

Yes but making money at home is really hard... i have been working online for years and I must admit that the salary i get every month isn't enough to support my needs most especially my medical needs.. i have been diabetic for almost two years and i'm an insulin dependent.. novomix insulin is pricey PHP 895.00.. the insulin injection is only good for two weeks so i need to buy one immediately or else i can't eat meals.. however, instead of complaining, i'm thanking God for giving me this kind of opportunity...

I think it is not easy to make big money at home,because there are so many people doing the same things,you don't have your own advantages,so why the custom come to buy your products? I konw some people who work at home,just sell someting via ebay,or build a website to earn adv fee,and so on.the important factor of their success,I think,is the numerous numbers of the visitors from the web,they give them money,so promoting your on-line shops or website to attract many many people is rather important.
