What type of home business do you have? Do you run it online or from your home or from a office? How long have you been working for your self? Have you made a worth it profit for your own company?
Just wondering what other people are doing for extra cash.

I don't really have any home business, but I've been looking to start up a new one. I just couldn't figure out what. There's a couple of things that I've been seriously considering, but I've been procrastinating. I know that every little bit of part time-home based business would help specially at these difficult times, but my regular work has been getting me real busy. It's been kind of hard juggling things around.
Hi keelymcilwain! I think I remember you saying you did have a home business. What was it again?

Oh boy well I run a few...
Photo Parties- I sell my photography, people book appointment times and I go to their house to meet family and friends of the host. I have booklets of photos that are for sale. I offer 4x6 ones on stock ready to be framed. The bigger sizes I take orders for and I also offer home portraits of children, families, groups, pets, holidays, and will make custom calenders, mugs, mouse pads, and such.
I also run a Contracting company. My boyfriend was injured at his job just over a year ago, times got rough when he couldn't work, when EI ran out and Workers Comp. We had to figure out something, because we were not making ends meet and just going further into debt. So last summer we started a contracting company. We hired people that were educated in this field and sent them to work. Currently there is 8 guys on our crew and 2 females. I do most of the paper/ office work. And I am very busy ordering stone, wood, tools, sod, drywall everything you would build with. I also go and do the estimates, we have a sheet I fill out and then come home get the prices and give the person a total. My boyfriend now drives around in a company truck checking on the crews, making sure things are done properly, see if they need anything. This is where we make the most income. I absolutely love it. I went to school to be a nurses assistant, but after the passing of my dad I knew for sure I would never be able to work with elders. And now I am making way more in a day then I would as a NA.
I also do doggy day care 2 days a week.

i work in the office and wife is left at home doing nothing, just the household chores. but lately, she decided to put up a small store to cater the neighbors and our household needs. she is selling grocery items like bath soap, detergent, coffee, sugar, chocolate, seasoning and other canned goods. basic household needs.

I don't have a home business, as working online is how I make my money, even though it isn't a lot, but it all adds up in the end. I had tried for a long time to find things to do online without having to pay anything, and when I found mylot, that was my first start, and since then I have found the other sites I am doing, and without mylot, I would have never known about them at all, so I am glad that i did find mylot. Since I haven't been working all that long online, I knew I wouldn't make all that much at first, but as time goes on, I hope to make much more than I am now. I do have a fixed income I receive every month, but what I am making online, is over and above that, and extra income. I am glad that I am making something online, as I never expected to get rich doing what I am doing. I will just keep doing what I am doing and in time I will get more money. Good luck to you and happy mylotting.
