My wife is dropping her daycare she has and want to find something else to do from home. Daycare is good money but after 3 years of it she is burned out.

the problem is that she hasnt found one work from home job listing in the paper that isnt a scam or a stupid MLM scheme.

you guys know of any legit work from home companies?

for example check out this reply she got back. total scam

Hello,
Thanks for your response to the posting...

We am looking to employ an online secretary. We sell
electronics online you
can go to you will see our mini page
garykewell.en.ecplaza.net where my products are listed
and which has
been a very profitable business for us. We should be
handling the transactions
on here but the distance thing is a big problem... we
have lost too many deals
because we need to provide a secure means of payment
with a nearby secretary, We
used to use another mobile secretary but I had to
relieve her of the post for
inefficiency.
Well, we have stores in Seattle, WA. and West Jordan,
Utah. We sell these
products mostly here in US, Canada, UK and other parts
of the world. Our
customers need to pay over a secure means and to them
the best form is paying
via bill payment or TC's issue from the bank. The
general idea is... you help to
receive the payment via bill payment from individual
buyer's bank and have them
cashed at the bank provided you are able to do that.
You send the payment to our
suppliers when I need you to or directly to the
company and you take yours...you get 8% renumeration on each transaction,the
average transaction cost is
$2,500 and we handle at least 2 a week and as xmas and
thanksgiving is around the corner we expect sales to
double.
Thats $400 tax free every week.Tax and other charges
during transaction will be from my pocket not yours!
Working with me will also not disturb your other jobs.
I require you to have easy access to the
internet...and be able to respond
promptly to instructions and my e-mails.. Hope to hear
from you and will want to
know if you will be willing to work with me.

Thanks,
Gary Kewell.

Good question. We are looking for something too while the wife is home pregnant ( Love the sig quote btw ). She will be home, out of work till the baby is in school, so at least another 5-6 years. I was thinking maybe notary, but we havent looked too much into it yet.

There are a few craft based jobs. However, the easy one require perfection. Many operate by having you purchase supplies and then rejecting your work.

Getting your funds back, if possible, can be difficult.

Here's my standard response to these types of threads:

Pay ain't great - maxes out around $10-$12 an hour and the hours aren't super flexible. But it is a legitmate "work at home" profession.

I don't know any. How about a local retail store? Home Depot? Barnes & Noble? Good luck.

I know when I did computer work for Wachovia they had people who worked for their call center able to take calls at home. May be able to find something like that?

You wife will have to take classes, but medical transcriptionists can make a good chunk of change from home

Try WHAM

My wife was taking orders for Pizza Hut for a while. You get to talk to a lot of nice people, funny people and sometimes drunk people for about $7.00 an hour while sitting at home in your underware.
