wurk {Your career. Your say.}

I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve been asked whether there were really real work at home jobs. There’s no easy answer to that question, but, in a nutshell, the more skills you have the better chance you’ll have of being able to find work you can do at home or of building a freelance business. You will also need a high speed internet connection, a decent computer, and good computer skills - regardless of what you’re doing.

And, if you think you’re going to get rich, the chances of that are even slimmer - don’t believe the ads you see or the forum posts you read that promise you lots of money for a few hours a day. That’s not going to happen. Carefully investigate all the job listings you find and check out companies before you apply. Here’s more information on work at home jobs and how to find them.
