At first I stayed home with my daughter, but pretty soon we needed money, so I began searching for a part-time job.

No problem I thought, there are tons of great daycares around my house. Wrong! There may have been plenty, but almost every single one of them was full. I finally managed to find one that would take my daughter, but only if she was walking eating table foods, and off the bottle....and it would cost $145 for three days a Continue Reading

When getting started working from home, figuring out which are legitimate work at home jobs and which are not legitimate can be tough. But as you cull through the many Internet job postings and ads, a pattern of deception becomes clear and in turn making the truly legitimate work at home jobs easier to spot.
