At-Home Workers Have More Free Time

Well at least that is what this web site said Entreprenuer Magazine said. The rest of the quote goes like this:

"at-home workers have more free time and disposable money for recreation and vacation time than clock-punchers and Americans at large."

You will see other quotes there referencing working from home but not alot of info about what kind of work THEY are offering. Basically, its the same old, same old. You pony up your personal contact info and agree to our privacy policy and we will contact you and tell you more.

You can't imagine the amount of spam e-mail I get when I fill these out but I am going to try this one out and see if they are any different. 

One question is, How much are you willing to invest? Hmmmmm, red flag!

Be sure to read that privacy policy. 

Oh, and last time I checked I didn't have more free time (just more flexible time) and I don't have more disposable money. Yup, just like most jobs.

More time?!? It seems like for most WAHM jobs your income is almost entirely dependent on how much time you spend hustling and working whatever product line, consulting, what have you you're dealing with. I don't know how people cope with the uncertainty of commission-based (or "you have as much work as you can drum up"-style) contractor arrangements -- I'd be freaking out all the time. I am the sole source of support for my family, so I feel fortunate that I have a "real job" (e.g. salaried with benefits, they have to give me notice before firing me) that lets me work from my home office.

Stella,

Thanks for your comments. I feel the same as you. As of yesterday I lost my full-time work from home job so I am in the boat with the rest of you looking to find a way to work from home. The commission, contract work scares me because I am fully the only source of income for my family too. I wish us all luck.

Love your blog! Your comments about beinging careful and knowing as much as possible is an imporant thing to remember. Many of these so called work from home programs are merely aimed at getting your name on a list that can be sold. And they cleverly set up the sites to provide as little information as possible so you have no choice but to sign up before you know what they are offering. And they do it for a reason... it works for them. Remember, these people are in business to make money... and that's okay. Just be smart enough to realize what they are doing and you'll be okay. Try getting yourself a free "throw away" e-mail account to use when requesting information from these sites. That way when the spam starts coming - and it will - you can just switch to a new account when it gets to be too much to handle.

Hi I do agree that working from home you do not actually have FREE time but it is negotiable because you can switch it up most of the time when you need to such as for a child's school activity or even a vacation. And you can throw a load of laundry in, cook dinner, wash dishes while you are on the phone or inbetween emails. If you are with a REAL company or business working from home you can do it from anywhere even on vacation if you have to. The Investment part is because as I said if it is a REAL business you are pretty much considered a sub-contractor for the Corporate office and will receive a 1099 at the end of the year. If the latter is true then it is YOUR OWN BUSINESS where you are the Boss and ALL real businesses have overhead costs. You couldn't open up a franchise of any kind without investment and overhead cost and that kind of business you would be talking THOUSANDS!! A legitimate work from home company would have a monthly overhead cost of say $50/mo which as I'm sure you know is Tax deductible- in exchange for that they would provide you with services such as giving you benefits for your entire household, death and dismemberment benefits,take care of your earnings, send you checks, take care of customer service, Technical support, all legal aspects of each state law if it is something you can work across the U.S. Take care of the websites they provide for you. And of course PHENOMINAL training that should be ONGOING for as long as you are with the company (not just sign you onboard and throw you to your own descretions) and of course it is always nice if it is residual income and your business is willable or sellable so that when you pass away you have a legacy to leave to your children! What company do you know that would keep paying your family after you have passed away? If a home business meets this criteria and is also associated with corporations and other professionals that would not put their name with a scam then you have yourself a true business that you should be happy to invest in and reap the rewards in a couple of years. Yes I said a couple of years because if they tell you you will get rich overnight then it is a scam!!!! But say they mention $100k in 2-4years working your business consistantly then that is believeable. So though working from home is another household CHORE it is very rewarding and one that will definitely pay off. Definitely do beware of the scams I know I have found several before my rewarding business came across my desk!!!
