Dear All,
Basically in 3 years time it will be my parents 25th Anniversary and i know they want to go on a cruise, this however i along with the help of my brothers want to fund.
I am currently unwell and unable to work and was wondering if there are any ways of working at home that are not too strenuous (i'm not lazy just physically unable).
I don't have a figure in mind but will do anything and everything suggested in order to raise that bit of money to pay for my parents cruise to show my appreciation to them.
Thanks very much in advance.

That´s a really nice thing to do ...
Since you don´t need to earn a regular income, and you´ve got plenty of time to save for it, you could try all sorts of things to contribute to the fund. You could do party plan in your home, rather than travelling, or if you´re open-minded work on adult chat lines.
What work experience do you have? It might help if you could post the nature of your illness, so that we know what you can and can´t do, but if you don´t want to mention it here you can always PM me and I´ll see what else I can suggest.0 -

It is a way of getting the kind of money you are talking about.
But read and read again ..Mistakes can be costly ..I made one this week
But it is the easiest way of making a 4 figure sum over a year or so .0 -
Don't forget that you have to pay tax on your income and if you are receiving any means tested benefits your income will be taken into account.
It's not "free money" just because you're doing it from home.0 -
