At Home Businesses

Hi everyone.

I've been reading everyones threads for a while and have taken active steps to sort myself out. Will post SOA soon, but waiting for banks to get back to me with APR's.

Basically, I've decided to get myself in a position I want to be I need a 2nd income. I've been looking on Job Sites today and have noticed that there are a lot of companies looking for people to work from home, self employed and promising you high earnings each month!

I'm a bit wary of these, but don't want to miss out on what could be a good opportunity! Does anyone have any experience of such companied or can point me in the right direction of a reputable company?

Many thanks

    They tend to be mostly scams, if you're looking for something to do from home, it's better to go for Avon, betterware, Usbourne Books, Phoenix Cards or something like AQA. type any of them into google to get to the sites to find out more. Don't ever lay out money for one of those businesses mentioned on the internet! they are invariably just after your cash and won't give any return!

    Amway seem to be quite good to from what I can gather, particularly so now they've teamed up with so many well known brands like The Carphone Warehouse, nPower (I think) and BTYahoo Broadband (?). Sorry it's all a little sketchy I read an artical about it in the Daily Mail yonks ago...
