I do, since last year. Let me tell you how fun it is. I handle my own time, I have no boss, I can start working early or late and I can stay up late or be off work early. It's so cool... I can even work while watching tv, listening to music, while eating, and even while chatting. LOL. And my earnings are pretty cool also. Do you work from home?

I do some work from home, but most of my income comes from working outside the home. I would love to be able to earn more from home, and I am hoping to do so soon. If you have a good earning site, would you share the name of the site with us?

I am on disability and don't work. Unless you call sites like Mylot and some surveys work. I always thought working at home would be the best thing. I think some people, would just keep putting it off and wouldn't get any work done, but I don't think I would. The only thing about working from home, is you might not get to interact with many people. For some people work is the only social life they have. Other than that though it is the way to go!

Hi, How i wish I can get a job to work from home. Currently I am not working, and I am doing Mylot and writing paidpost to earn some pocket money. Just wondering what home based job you are doing currently since your earning is pretty good now. Mind to recommend it to me.

I do to for almost a year and although I have not done as well as you earning well. I do enjoy the fact that I can be really independent and dependent on just me instead of commuting to a job. What type of work do you do?

I would start to search for works online next month cause I would be resigned from my job by then. May I ask what your work is? Can you recommend sites where I can work online except for odesk and freelances and the like cause I already have tried applying for jobs there and it's difficult to bid on the projects, tough competition.

I also do some part time works at home and online. I always dream of being a full-time work at home person. The perks of not having a boss, dealing with traffic and the weather and of course, having a flexible time working is very tempting. Hopefully, in a year or so, I would be able to achieve this dream of mine. I also plan to go into business and help others by providing them with jobs.

I don't know if I call playing on mylot working from home. It is the only thing that I make money on so I guess it is sort of that kind. Sure it is cool because I don't have a boss and I can do it any time I want without any monitoring or anything.

Hi santos mari chris: That's simply great. Just one word: awesome. I work on an office and I sometimes have fun doing what I have to do but I'm sure it will be so much better if I have this stability. Please tell us a little bit more. How have you found a way to work just at home? How are you earning? What are you doing in order to get the money? I'm feeling interested ALVARO

my wife decided to be a stay at home mom and a wife since she gave birth. she left her singing career for us. but she works around the house. she and her friend make some personalize throw pillows and sell it on line. it is slow process of earning but once they sold something they are happy. she sold a few already and some buyers are from abroad. true that she enjoys working at home for she can see and take care of our son. she does not leave the house plus she enjoys her time. no boss then no worries... she only worries if the buyer will like it.

Hi dear, I am a full time employee work from 10-6 and 5 days a week for so many years. But I enjoy do some work from home and been doing also. If we have spare time and are capable of doing some work and if available and able to do enjoy and do, there is no problem for the extra hard work. Even now also, I collect private assignments and do at night time and complete and given the work in time. As you said, if we enjoy the work, there is no problems. As I am already working, the time allocated for such home business or work is limited and I will plan the same to suit with my convenience. However, I just completed one assignment 2 days back and expected to get another one today itself. Regards, Thank-s

First ,admire you have the chance to work like you described .Yes ,it's so cool and so enviable.But many people have boss and go to work and off work at regular time.And some time ,we must work overtime when we can't finish the work at the regular time or we accept work which it must be finish at a short time. But I think your work have pressure too,haven't you?
