anybody can tell me the sites???i am just curious.i am trying to find something and is extremely hard.just would like to know how people are finding real opportunity of qorking from comfort of their own homes/ :wave:

I wasn't going to reply to this string, until I read the replies. They go from online income to online jobs, comments on scams, the difficulty of finding opportunities and not getting rich quick. Had a friend who was a world class salesperson, who wanted to work an easy part time sales job. He could never do it, as soon as his bosses saw his work they always wanted him to do more. I mentioned working part time at home as a customer service representative. He said that was a scam, but after I convinced him he applied for and got the job. The person who told me about it had an MBA, she applied and did not get the job.

Created my first webpage in 1999. I worked from home in the past; but only got serious in 2004, when I had my third website. I tried making money online starting in 2011. With very poor results. So I could have called it a scam, but that site is going strong. Yes there are many scams going on, but many things are called scams which are not. People rarely want to accept their own short comings. I was once involved with an MLM company, which lots of people said was a scam. Later a state license was required in my state. And the company was on a list of companies the state accepted for people to join and work, in lieu of looking for a job. Two young men in their twenties went on to start making over $100k per year after joining the MLM company. So is it a scam? Or was it that the older people could not figure it out.

When I looked online for information about FusionCash, I found an expert on yahoo. (By the way to paraphrase Oldbuddy a mentor here on FusionCash: "All it takes to be an expert online is a keyboard and a connection.") This expert had a BSBA and an MBA. She said FusionCash was a scam. Lucky for me I don't believe all I read. Because I would have missed all the forum post. The money is good but the forum information is worth thousands, maybe much much more.

Good luck on your search. There are a lot of good ideas out there. Many of them will take a lot of hard work. Most of my friends said FusionCash and related sites were scams. I had to show them checks, PayPal deposits, Visa credit cards and my MasterCard debit card to prove otherwise. There are fewer scams then people say. True scams are out there, but a lot of what posses as scams is greed and lack of motivation.

I work from home. I have a blog called Cuppycake's Coupon Corner and several other sites I dabble with. I am also a personal chef and occasionally cater parties or take special cake orders. I have lupus so I work when I am able to. I recently did some traveling as a personal chef which was quite fun!

I want to thank you for deciding to throw in your opinion, it was very interesting and has my thoughts on this matter to take comments with a grain of salt and research. RESEARCH and did I mention RESEARCH! That is my biggest assets is the patience to research and I was online all day yesterday doing just that after reading a few of several forum comments. I see there is a bit of what I would and wouldn't do but really no scamming so far, they were up front and I was shocked as I was one of the ones that thought more scamming then real stuff out there so your comment here reflects how I feel today and glad so!

Not to say that are not some true scams out there. And you have to careful where you research because there are some sites out there with malware, one destroyed my new Dell laptop. You safe on this site. I like the forum for that, people already know safe sites and there are many on FusionCash.  I have joined to many sites. And some are the wrong kind. One site I used to do was just surveys them have added other stuff now. And many of there surveys they don't pay. But they tell that up front, you go in a pool for a potential prize. After almost 400 surveys and one cashout, plus a swollen left hand I don't go on their site any longer..

Hey y2kpeaches, there are two funny sites where the terms say you have to make some 50 trillion dollars to get a cashout, lol! Talk about a scam. And most people don't read the terms. I used to have a lawyer read any contract I signed even ones to send a package over night. Plus I used to work as a paralegal to get some training in business law. It pays to read and research even if it is only to keep from making mistakes.

I work from home and have since 2009. I work with Arise Virtual Solutions. Now, some people get confused sometimes, because I also work with one of the Highest Referral Agent Company online and run my website truehomeearning.net, but with working from home, not everything is a Job, so if it is a Business, you do have to pay to get Started. With Arise I paid over $400 to get started and then with becoming an Internet referral Agent I get paid $90+ person that does a trial offer and they have never missed an approved payment and I only paid $5 to get started with that and now making more money with that. So I think you really just have to do research and if it is a JOB, no don't pay, if it is a Home Based Business, yes, you may incur cost!

I've tried several but haven't done very well.  I agree with the others, don't pay to work.

not sure if there really are work from home opportunities. Most of them sound to good to be true.

There are work from home opportunities. I know of over 200 work form home companies. But to expand on that idea. There are companies that will hire people to work from home. I have a good friend who was an emergency room nurse, we rewrote her resume. She now works from home in medical management. She was able to leave the snow of New Jersey and do the same job, first from North Carolina and then California. As I mentioned earlier, I helped a friend (former co-worker) obtain a work from home job. Now I didn't try it because I didn't think I would qualify. Instead I found another business from home. I  started it in 2004 and would still be doing it, but I lost focus on the financial aspects of my business. New businesses usually fail in the first three years due to underfunding and poor management. That business lasted seven years. Sad thing is if I had been doing FusionCash. Or if the first survey site I picked had produced results, I would still be in business. Even after an auto accident I only needed a little income to stay a float and sell my way back into business.

That said I have meet more then a few people working their own business from from home. Years ago I meet someone who had a show room in the living room in their house. That gave me an idea it could be done. I have been in work from home product and service businesses. The first one was selling a proprietary nutritional powder (supplement) not available anywhere else at the time. The company was sold to a major nutritional firm which sells in many malls.

The major marketing skills to have a home business are being used by many leaders here on FusionCash. And you can see some good results. But just like other places people have problems finding clients. Here we call them referrals as in other projects. The other skill a sub-division of marketing is sales and some of that is used here as well. The wonderful thing about FusionCash is you can learn to do it here for free. (Free in financial terms, not in economic terms. Since there is still the issue of opportunity cost.)

Some of the skills for "working" from home include better then average keyboarding skills. Which can be learned on youtube or with a good typing book. And learning common software packages, the most common being Microsoft Office. This is taught at many colleges, business schools, online training programs or self-study with the training materials they use. Other companies require different skills. I was just offered $20 to $40 per hour to use Access a Microsoft Office product. But I no longer even know Access 97. The company wanted home Access 2010 users.

Lastly comes the question of what people do with the money they earn on FusionCash. This is money made from home for most. So if you change your comment to, "...no sure if there really are income from home opportunities. Most of them sound to good to be true." But thank The Lord there are. Since I didn't have to fill out a job application and go through an interview to start making money here. Or the sites I learned about from FusionCash and in the FusionCash forum. And to make bigger money I just have to use some business concepts. Like take this cash and turn it into another asset and then turn it back into cash. In this case much bigger cash where possible. Good Luck!  :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :heart:

Can't rule out paying to work. It may or can be a risk. But it is also part of your education when it comes to working from home. Now if you can do it without paying then by all means do so. For all the people who work from companies where they paid, but now have an income of $10 to $14 per hour. They can recoup their money in one week. Others will have to re-qualify for those companies and may never be hired. The same can be said for businesses. Some people will not pay $30.00 to $249.00 to start a home based business that could pay them from $0.00 to $2,000,000.00 per year. But would look into a franchise they cannot afford for hundreds of thousands (using real world numbers in these examples here to make a better picture) of dollars. Life has risk, especially if you want to get ahead or want other results.

To me, taking surveys, doing the tasks, watching videos is working at home. It requires some times to complete these tasks. I always consider fusioncash as a second job.

This is the only site I use for extra money. Otherwise, I rely on my part time job and it's working so far. I'm thankful for everything I have!

I have a business out of my home and this is just to add to my income.  You do have to be very carefull and dont buy into any program that wants to teach you how to make money at home.  It is a waste of money and if you find a good program they will teach you for free everything you need to know.  Like fusion cash!!!
Jesus loves you
