\"legitimate<\/p>\n

Are you looking for legitimate work from home opportunities? If you want a flexible schedule (i.e. being able to pick up the kids from school\/ sports), don’t want to pay for childcare, and want to be in charge of when you work and how often a work from home job might be perfect for you.<\/p>\n

I’ve worked from home for the last 20 years and love the flexibility<\/strong><\/em> it’s given me to homeschool my kids, be available for their events, and add extra money to our family’s budget.<\/p>\n

When times were financially tough for my family we realized we could do two things, save more money and make more money. After lowering our monthly bills<\/a>, reducing our grocery budget, and getting rid of debt, making more money was the next step.<\/p>\n

I started by selling used items on eBay, but that required shopping at yard sales every weekend and dealing with packaging and shipping multiple items every week. It was a great job when my kids were very little and I didn’t have commitments outside the home.<\/p>\n

As my kids grew and were involved in extra curricular activities I couldn’t devote every weekend to shopping yard sales. I looked for work from home opportunities that were more flexible.<\/p>\n

There are many legitimate options if you want to work from home. I have friends who are successful in network marketing companies such as Lula Roe, Young Living, Pampered Chef, Advocare<\/a>, and Thirty-One Gifts.\u00a0I also have friends who sell products<\/a> on Amazon and their own shops and make a decent income.<\/p>\n

If you don’t like selling<\/strong><\/em> (and I don’t!) but are interested in money making opportunities here’s a list of legitimate work from home jobs that don’t require you to host parties or sell anything.<\/p>\n

Most of the work from home jobs listed below do require a computer and a strong internet connection. I’ve listed jobs that have flexible hours and pay above minimum wage. (most pay at least $20 an hour)<\/p>\n
