Has anybody actually ever tried the "Work from home" advertisements you so often see in the jobs section of newspapers?
Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at an Elingsh uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht frist and lsat ltteer is at the rghit pclae.

Hi Tayus,
I've been interested in something like this before and did at one stage work from home doing telephone work which unfortunately has now ended.
I read in a paper a couple of years ago that if anyone asks you to part with 'money to join up (even though they state that it will be returned at some point during your membership) or £25.00 to 'cover admin costs' etc. then not to bother with them. If people genuinely want you to carry work out then they will PAY YOU, not the other way round!
Hope this helps.
All the best.0 -
I've been looking into this for years and am totally fed up with what seems to be a good idea. They always seem to go wrong in my experience. NEVER pay for information. I have in the past and have kicked myself so many times you wouldn't believe it. Maybe I'm just desperate but everything seems like a good idea at the time. Don't be fooled. The only people who make money are the people selling these plans. :-/0
