Hi there!
I'm a stay-at-home, hands-on mom to two junior-school kids. I'm an MBA(HR) and have experience of working both as a fulltime employee and as a freelancer, in the past.
I'm currently looking to 'restart' my career, maybe changing over completely from my professional background. After evaluating my options and in light of my interests, personality, and convenience, I've zeroed on on the internet as a potential career opportunity.
What I'm basically lookig out for is - A 20-25 hrs/week work option with an STABLE, reasonable earning potential. I've done my bit of research on the net, and find that some obvious popular choices wouldn't be worth my time, since I'm NOT looking for some dough to keep my head above the water or provide my bread and butter :)) That's being taken care of by the other half!!
Therefore, PTC penny sites, meagre stream of surveys which come my way(I'm not in U.S.!), and the like is definitely not the best use of my time and effort. I'd also include in this category, some fantastic "get rich quick without lifting your finger" schemes I've been bombarded with!!
I'm looking for LEGITIMATE, long-term, steady income stream ideas, from the members, which would be decently worth the time, and provide, maybe, the jam n jelly:))
I'd appreciate if some members could share their experiences, advice and best practices on this subject.
Thanx!

hi alchan72,
You've just come on the right site.Being here in mylot will
give you a great number of opportunities to earn online. All you have to do is be
patient in researching for those legitimate sites and be more patient in doing all
the task that will be given on you.I have been working online for almost 2 years.
I can say that I gained quite good enough money on my online job. I did stop for a
year because I was teaching but then come back again online.I resigned from my
previous work and decided to apply for another job. I decided to do online work
while waiting for the result of my application.
Upon reading some discussions here, I learned that you can earn by making a
business online. If I am not mistaken, they called it affiliate marketing in which
you will create your own blog and sell or promote products online.Others earn big
through writing. There are many writing sites which you can try if you think you
have an inclination in writing. They are the Bukisa, Triond, Associated Content,
Helium and perhaps there are still other sites which I still don't know at the
moment but are good paying site.I suggest you stay here and keep in touch.Sooner
or later, you can find a legitimate online job which you can try for yourself. Be
patient and keep on researching.

Hi. you could try odesk.
I haven't been able to get a job there, but I wasn't really trying.
anyway, odesk works like an online business district. It's like combing the area for available jobs, passing your resume, get interviews, get hired, work, get paid.
try it. it's odesk dot com

Odesk seem to be working well for me....I have had a lot of job offers and some of them are pretty simple make sure you look at the evaluations in the job information section....It tells about the job seeker and how well they liked the buyer

my suggestion is not to work on the net .
you can find a job about the net.
you can use the net.
there are many traps in net.
be careful!
