January 15, 2007 9:31am CST
How many of you out there work from home and make a fairly good income off of it? I am expecting a baby in early march and want to be a stay at home mom but the extra money would help out alot. So I was thinking if only I could find a work at home job that isnt a scam. Can anyone tell me how they got started with thier work from home job or anywheres I can look into that they know isnt a scam?

I started working at home about 4 months ago. There is a great opportunity that I found after a lot of searching! Chacha.com. It is great because there is no work on the phone so background noise is not an issue. You set your own hours and work when you wish. The best part of all is that there is NO FEE at all to start. Check it out! Good luck to you!

I don't know what your idea of a fairly good income is, but I make about $200/ week working from home. I work part-time and can set my own schedule. If you can have a quiet work environment & can get a 2nd phone line you may want to try: www.workathomeagent.com www.liveops.com I work for both of these companies & it has been a positive experience for me. With liveops there is a $30 fee for a background check, but it is legit. By the time you pay that, you pretty much have the job. I usually only work when my husband is home or everyone is in bed or school so it will be quiet!! Hope this helps:)

There are some REAL jobs working from home. There are definitely more work from home jobs in the US than in the UK. I work from home doing a "proper job" and alongside that I am building up incomes doing another half a dozen things. Try http://www.real-work-at-home.co.uk if you are in the UK. Apart from the real jobs (employed/holidays/etc) there are also loads of other things to check out to see if they are right for you, including a number of free to start businesses. Everybody's different. Try a few things and see how you get on.

There is many many scams out there so be sure to always check into a company first! I would suggest searching sites like www.WorkatHomeCareers.com (they also have a great scam section) or Wahm.com for new job leads, Sometimes it is kind of hard to find what your looking for or what works for you so it can take time to get a wah job. Just dont give up and stay consistent with applying and I am sure something will come your way. Congrats on the new baby! and Good Luck in your search!
