Okay. So I work from home. Or rather, I am trying to work from home so that I can reach some goals.
I am a software engineer, who's experimented with freelance everything - transcription, content and article writing and re-writing, editing, data entry...
I need to earn approximately $25,000 within the next 6 months since I have debts amounting to that amount!!!! And I want to pay it off within the next 6 months since I am into social and voluntary work and I want to get into it full time with no strings attached.
I am not averse to hard work. I just need to find out which work really pays. I've been cheated of approximately $15,000 in the past year, from companies and websites which offered me work, for whom I worked, and then finally didn't get paid.
I'd appreciate it very much if someone could give me some good referrals to work where I will realy get paid and where I can reach my goals.
I'm going to keep the community posted as to how my work goes as well as how my earnings go... I'm confident that I will make it and, well, rejoice with me :-)

You may try Suite101, Bright Hub, Scriptlance, GetaFreelancer and RentACoder. They are legit websites and I'm being paid regularly.

I just registered with Suite101. How consistent are the payments?

Hello again Joy :) Constant Content pays good for professionally written articles, and they are reliable. Slower earning, but also reliable and decent pay if you submit enough articles is Helium dot Com and Associated Content dot com.
But again, for the best upfront pay, Constant Content is how I would go.

PS...I'll add some keywords to this discussion...I think this might have been why you're not getting responses, sweetie.
