Hi fishpoolphil,
I've just merged your post with two threads about home working, I hope it is not confusing for you or anyone else.

i'd suggest selling unwanted stuff on amazon or ebay. and put your name down for all the surveys going. my wife makes a tidy amount in minutes. there's loads of ways to earn money, as long as it's legal.
and i'd ignore anything that 'Tongue' types. :rolleyes: how are their posts 'helping' anyone?

Well thank you tongue for your extremely helpful post!!!
For your information I am currently signed off sick with agoraphobia meaning that I can not go out to work HOWEVER I am looking for a job I can do from home so I can resign from the job currently paying me sick pay for doing nothing and work for a living.
Is that satisfactory for you??????
Maybe you should find out the whole story before accusing people of fraud!0 -
Hi Sparkle Wing
I just wanted to say, as an ex agoraphobic, don't give in to it. If you have a job work at getting back to it, DO NOT give in and start doing home work, its the biggest mistake you could make.
I was in the same position 15 years ago, had a job, developed agoraphobia and though I would take working from home, 10 years later, in debt up to my eyeballs, still not going out, I decided to fight back. The thing is as with any phobia you must face it otherwise it just spirals out of control. I got to the stage of being curled up on the floor unable to even answer the phone, my phobia just took over.
Now 5 years after deciding to kick myself into getting out, I have had 3 jobs, had trouble with settling down. Now I am a self employed Pet Sitter / Dog Walker, outside all the time and loving it.
I have no sign of agoraphobia, it is the hardest thing you will do but it is worth it, if you need support pm me. I know exactly what your thinking but it can be done, it is not so bad out there.
Take care

Be very aware of home envelope stuffing as these tend to be scams. Most companies that need this service will have a machine to do it for them that can stuff alot more envelopes than someone sat at home.
Also if you find websites for home working, never never pay any money out as this could also be a scam.
I have wanted to work from home for a few years now and haven't really come across anything that would pay the way.
You could try and sell things on ebay, or do you have any hobbies you could turn into cash??0 -
do you have any hobbies that you can turn into a profitable little income?
I make greeting cards and gift baskets.

Car boot sales! is always a gooden. as some1 once told me
"Anothers mans waste is anothers mans treasure"
Or even if you cant think of things to sell. Do the ebay thing and go car booting yourself find some bargains, do your homework on ebay and find what sells. you be suprised what you pick up.
Another way.. Charity shops - i dont really shop in but I went with my nan to give some clothes and baby stuff, and I found a silver bread bin in there for £1 in brand new condition. There were lots of things in there. They need people to buy it to raise for charity and well you can actually make off it. I'm well made up with my bread bin. I would think about going again to see whats in there. Ive donated lots of things i could have sold instead. People give out good things they dont need.Thank youLiz x0 -
Avon, Betterware, Usbourne Books, Body Shop, Virgin Vie, making your own anything!, selling on eBay, car boots etc etc etc0
