WORK FROM HOME REVIEW MUSIC £ JOBS

Advantages: EASY TO USE, MAKE MONEY
Disadvantages: A LOT OF TIME NEEDS TO BE SPENT TO EARN BIG BUCKS

...I have tried many working from home ideas rangeing from taking part in surveys to selling products. There are so many ways you can make an extra penny or two but the reality is, thats all you make. There are no quick fire ways of becoming a millionaire but there are a few ways you can earn a couple of hundred quid in a month. The best way I found is not to focus on one working from home job but to do as many as you can, this does take up a lot of your time however. One of the best and most enjoyable way is to review new music, The site www.slicethepie.com allows you to listen to 60secs of a song then write a review and get paid, you need to review 50songs before you start earning 3p a song then around 150songs til your earning 7-10p a song. You can also invest in new artists and if they become famous you will receive a % of their...

Working from Home

Advantages: Flexible hours, no commuting on trains and buses, work around family commitments.
Disadvantages: Self discipline requiried, spend a lot of time on your own, no guarantee of regualar income.

...I started working from home a few years ago so I've trawled through the websites looking for home working opportunities. I never gave a second thought to companies that asked for a registration fee or money upfront to offer me work. Instead I went for well known, established firms. I've been working as a mystery shopper for the last six years and enjoy it so much that I don't think I'd ever give it up! I must admit that unless you join lots of agencies you won't get a decent income from this type of work but you will get some extra cash and lots of free items, food and drink. Jobs offered are on a wide scale and include fast food outlets, electrical high street shops, mobile phone shops, retail outlets, pubs and bars, fitness centres, cinemas, hotels and more. I have enjoyed complimentary CD's, software, small electrical items...

How To Make Money Working From Home On The Net

Advantages: The traditional workplace is shrinking fast!
Disadvantages: You have to place large bets to make good profits

...Sports Arbitrage Hi. The internet. It?s transformed our lives, right? Whereas we all used to troll off semi-comatose to squash ourselves onto the tube, train or bus, commuting to what seemed like a life sentence of tedious office routine, now we can all make money from home using the internet. It?s a revolution. We can be home to pick up after our kids, to wipe their noses and switch on Tracey Beaker ? office politics, crushes and Christmas parties are a thing of the past. Right? Well, I?ve been trawling the net for bona-fide home-working opportunities for, let?s say? too long. Three thousand years, maybe. It?s hard to work out which schemes are genuine so I thought it might be kind of useful to start sharing some thoughts about these schemes. First, what is 'sports arbitrage'? It?s a fancy word for betting. Its derivation is...

Do your homework before you work at home

Advantages: flexible, family friendly and on the increase
Disadvantages: need to think it all through carefully first

...This isn’t an opinion about different ways you can make lots of money, but instead intends to look at the actual situation of working from your home, as opposed to some other place. I started working from home nearly a year ago, after the birth of my daughter made me rethink my priorities. Not working wasn’t an option, and if I had returned to my then employer I would have had to put a 6 month old in a creche for about 9 hours a day, a prospect that I found unthinkable. I felt that I was incredibly lucky to find a job that enabled me to work full time from my own home. I had to sell the idea to my new employer, which meant thinking through a lot of the practicalities well in advance. I am developing a new business for my employer which is a great incentive to me to succeed, but in some ways meant that my boss could...

Work from Home and get Ripped off

Advantages: At the moment, none
Disadvantages: You get ripped off

...I am a married woman due to have a baby in the next few weeks, I have given up a job as a soldier to become a full time mum. I have tried everything to try and find a home based job, but I have had no luck at all. Most of the companies I have written to or contacted by phone are saying that I have to pay them so much money before I can even start working for them. So thats what I did, I sent one company the money they were asking for, I received a letter confirming receipt of the money and that I would here from them in the very near furure. But did I? No, I have heard nothing. I tried contacted the company and I heard nothing from them. I am unable to name the companies as I am unable to remember them, but I have tried a few. The companies that are from far away from the furthest location seem to be the worst...

All work and no pay...

Advantages: Flexible Hours, Comfortable Working Environment
Disadvantages: Needs a lot of self discipline

...I have worked for myself now for over 18 years, and to be honest I wouldn't want to go back to a regular 9 to 5, but it certainly isn't easy earning a regular income. Those of you who have read my other reviews will know that I lost my youngest daughter a while back, and for me that was a huge reminder that life is very short, and for some, hardly any time at all. So my thinking is that I don't want to waste my time doing things in life which are not important to me - I want to spend as much time as I possibly can with the people I love, my wife, my children, my grandchildren, my friend. I don't want to work 40 hours each week and only have snippets of time, very little of which is quality time, with those who are important to me. I live on one of the most beautiful coastlines in the country and if the sun shines in...

No One's Decision But Yours! (Working Mums vs. Stay at Home Mums)

Advantages: Wider horizons for mum and financial independence in working.
Disadvantages: Women can feel trapped at home.

...Staying at home or going to work as mums-this is probably one of the most difficult decisions many of us have to make, and there are no right answers. I want to talk about this from the perspective of a mum who has brought up two sons and two daughters, the youngest of whom is now 17. In the 1950's this was never really the massive issue it has become today. Women in many cases just expected to be at home raising children, and of course caring for the home. The choices for child care were limited, and for many it was a dream to become a mum and a housewife. I remember vividly being a bridesmaid for my cousin when he married in the early 70s. His wife was thrilled by the thought of a future caring for a home and a family, she had been buying groceries weekly and storing them under her bed. I'll never forget her excitement when she pulled...

Review of Working Mums vs. Stay at Home Mums

No Christmas Party Shenanigans

Advantages: no commuting, convenience, you can set your own hours
Disadvantages: lack of contact with others, no jollies

...Working from Morgenhund Towers in the centre of Vienna has proved to be a very interesting experience, and although I have earned my keep for the last six months purely by sitting at my desk and translating, writing articles for magazines, evaluating software and sorting out sponsorship deals for various causes, I still long for an office job. Let’s face it, whilst I don’t have hellish times commuting across a large city at rush-hour (I admit that Vienna’s rush-hour is not as bad as London’s) the fact that I only have to fall out of bed to hit the on switch of my computer and climb into the chair to be “at work” is not quite as great as it sounds. Firstly, working from home is only possible thanks to the marvels of modern technology. I have a permanent net connection, which allows me to send...

Are you disciplined enough?

Advantages: No travel, relaxed atmosphere, less stress, more control
Disadvantages: Isolation, no employer pension contributions, no sick or holiday pay

...I have been working at home part time for the last 2 years, full time for the last 3 months. I gave up my full time job at the end of May and opted for working from home, my stress levels at work were through the roof, commuting was a pain (even when I walked to work I got tired of it in the freezing winter) and I just felt unappreciated and underpaid. To get the money I wanted I would have had to work in the city, or private clinic and they wanted blood out of me to earn it. So, slowly I moved to working at home, I am by profession a Medical Secretary, but with a rather good IT background also. I work for 3 companies now, transcribing medico-legal reports, clinic letters (occasionally I do non medical, transribing interviews and focus groups etc.). I am doing quite well - at least holding onto the salary i'm used to...

YOU NEED NEVER MISS THIS MORNING AGAIN

Advantages: Freedom, money-saving
Disadvantages: None for me

...There are many ways and means of working from home, but my opinion is not really about the various money-making schemes pedalled by unscrupulous sales people that you see advertised in the newspaper. Sorry to be so harsh, but surely everyone realises that these “get rich quick” schemes are a complete waste of time. My experiences of working from home refer to my current circumstances, whereby I have been fortunate enough to secure a management position, for which my place of work is my home. As more and more companies awaken to the potential of home working, that daily journey to the office seems less and less necessary. Furthermore, the cost of company car parking spaces and office accommodation can be extremely high. Many companies now have major programmes to encourage employees to become home-based, enabling...
