There are hundreds of possible businesses, but a business requires some capital to start up so I would recommend looking for one that requires less than $500 to start, but remember it is your business and it will only be successful if you are prepared to put some amount of continuous effort into it. It will take some time to build and get an income flowing, so I would study all opportunities very closely and see if your choice has any bonus schemes which can act as cash flow as the main income stream grows.With most businesses it will take 2-4 weeks before the first income may be received, but that is normal, in fact most home based jobs will only pay monthly. But with a business the income should increase quickly as the weeks progress, in fact it is possible to be earning a significant extra income within 6 months and be financially free in 2-4 years.Some 9 years ago I got involved with a company in the second largest industry in the world – Telecommunications. What impressed me with this company was the attitude of the owners, they were already in a position where they could have retired, but they decided that they had a company that could grow and help very many people throughout the world to realise their financial dreams.This company now operates in 19 countries on 3 continents and expects to be opening up another 50 countries over the next few years. They have been featured in many publications like USA Today, Success from Home Magazine (twice), Fortune, and Inc 500 rated then the 22nd fastest growing company in the USA after their first 5 years, not only that but the 2nd most profitable.Recently the multi-billionaire Donald Trump endorsed the opportunity, calling it probably the best available in the world today.The services the company offers are local and long distance calling, Internet, Digital, Voip with video phones, Satellite TV and cell phone services with all the major cell phone providers. Now everybody knows plenty of other people who use these services in their homes every day, and this opportunity allows you to save people money on these services, but at the same time it allows you to earn a percentage of the monthly billing of all the people, who are saving money on the services you recommended, now you have created a residual based income, you get paid every month for as long as the customer continues to use the service. This can be a very profitable business as the industry turns over approximately one Trillion dollars annually.Now just a little bit of information about myself, I am nearly 62 and spent most of my working life in traditional manufacturing companies at Director level, so I know a bit about business. What I have discovered in the last few years, I wish I had known about when I left college. It has taken me over 30 years to discover a business that I can honestly recommend to anybody, although they will have to have drive and determination to succeed.If you would like any more information feel free to email me.Douglas

The reality is, if you are not prepared to invest in yourself and your business, you will ultimately fail over and over again. I know this from experience. I tried many like the businesses listed above and ended up losing my shirt. Think for a moment, how much it would cost to start your own coffee cart in the hub of a large city. This is considered a small business. I'd say the costs will range from 10,000 - 150,000. That is just for start up. Now there are many opportunities to earn a living online. You can do freelance work, and get paid just like a job (by the hour). You can learn how to be an affiliate and sell other peoples products. You could sell on ebay. None of these will give you the income we all desire though. 90% of those entering internet marketing will quit within their first year. I've done it all, so I know how hard it is. I've been working online for just over 9 years and I've tried it all. I've failed many times on my way to success. But that's the road we all travel, as long as we learn along the way. If you are truly serious about starting your own business from home my best advice is to find a mentor. Someone who can steer you away from the scams and show you different options.I'd be happy to help if you'd like.

You definitely have an advantage of being in a large popular city. If you can recognize the big picture, that is getting to what you believe is financial freedom, and you can also do something you can be passionate about, you have the best of both worlds! Healthcare is a major issue in the U.S., and though many political candidates speak of their views and plans, the fact of the matter is it needs to be addressed ASAP. Ameriplan has addressed this crisis by providing an affordable solution for those in need of health or dental care assistance. For more details, visit this site, www.dailychecksathome.com. It gives a full overview of who we are, what we do, and how we get paid. If you feel this is something you can partner with, contact me thru Answers or go to my site, www.freedomathometeam.com/trhonda2000.Hope this helps,Trhonda

It really depends on what you want to do.

You should sit down and figure out what you're interested in -- you don't have to sell makeup or purposes. People have made money blogging or selling websites. Blogging or selling websites does not generally require much investment in terms of money (e.g., you can sign up on Blogger.com for free; to sell websites, you need to at least have your own website - iamawebhost.com).

There are lots of things that you can do - but, you need to figure out your own skill level and what you're intested in doing.

Good luck!!

Default Acn

Hey Val!
This is my first post on the site so hello everyone too
I've started my own telecommunications business through a company called ACN. It's been in Aus for about 4 years. I was skeptical about it at first and did my homework on it, read blogs about how it is a scam (pyramid scheme) etc. But you also read about how muchit has changed peoples lives. The ACCC took ACN to court but lost as it was not a pyramid scheme.. and I didn't think it would be seeing as its in 19 countries and endorsed by Donald J Trump! Anyway i've been doing it for about 3 weeks and will make back half the initial fee this month of 500 bucks so i should break even next month (only work on it 3 hours a week because of uni!) and all i do is sell phone plans, internet and fixed line to family and friends (no door knocking or telemarketing involved!) and introduce others to the business opportunity to do the same and i will make commission off their customers and their reps customers etc etc. I can honestly say I'm loving it and it's something to have a look at! Especially now because of brand new products that are coming into the market that only ACN has brung into Australia and the opening of the business into Asian countries (3.8 billion people, massive opportunity!) someone will knwo someone who will know someone that will know someone from asia then all of a sudden you have business in Asia! I love it!
If you want to know more just give me an email i'd love to talk more. Or anyone who is interested.
Have a good one!
