Want to start home based business. Suggest some. How about internet jobs? Are they good or bad

What are some skills that you presently have and maybe jobs that you have already held? It would be helpful to know about those things.

Almost every site that advertises that you can make money via using them on the Internet is a scam. So, it's best to steer clear of them.

Thanks!

What do you like to do? Do you think it is true for you to "Do what you love and the money will come?" Do you know people who are doing what you might like to do and are doing it within the home-based business mode? Have you talked with them? Do you do okay in a "loner" situation without the support of being in a team situation physically?

Apparently you are okay with a computer and the internet. In thinking about whether you prefer to work with things, people, or information, I am guessing you are okay with the information aspect. Are you okay with trouble-shooting your electronic equipment and fixing it or getting help to fix it?

Do you have enough money to live for a while while you get up and running? Can you fund operation expenses until the business begins to pay its way? I guess I am getting into the area of whether to do a home-based business and not staying directly with your question of what kind of home-based business to do. Not all of them have to be computer or internet based.

Actually, you can do either people, things, or information all as home-based. My brother-in-law does wood-carving; he likes to work with his hands and things. I do counseling; I like to work with people. I also like to work with information, so I spend a lot of time at the computer both in hobby and in business. In addition, I print and put together children's books. This gives me all three aspects since I'm into marketing and sales for the books and get to introduce these to people.

There are lots of possibilities. Best wishes as you continue to explore them. If I come up with some more specific ideas soon, I'll plan to post for you.
