Do you want to work from home?

I'm going to assume the answer to this question is yes. There are a lot of benefits to working from home, work life balance being the number one reason. Disadvantages are more along the lines of a lack of work and lower pay, but some of these jobs actually pay pretty well.

I started researching work from home jobs at the beginning of this year when I finally felt comfortable enough to move on from my cancer. I initially thought of getting back out there with a traditional job, maybe start bartending again, but my biggest concern was whether or not the cancer would come back and I would have to loose out on pay or even leave the job completely. I also have gotten very comfortable being home with the kids, especially during the summer. I guess I didn't want to lose that freedom. I still do IMVU, but I also needed to make more money to start paying down my medical bills. Unless you put a lot of time into it, artsy crafty stuff can only get you so far. Now I have a guaranteed hourly paycheck.

I know people are always looking to make an extra buck so I decided to compile everything I have found into one list. All of these sites are legit places to work. I have not personally worked on a lot of these because they just didn't seem that interesting to me but currently I work on Clickworker, Amazon Turk, Appen, and Prolific so I can definitely answer any questions about those There are also a lot of resources you can find online for the other projects. Reddit is a great resource in finding out what people think of online work.
