It’s pretty depressing to see how many of the people I know and love are out of work. It’s hard to be encouraging, because… well… they’ve heard all the pep talks they can tolerate without choking the living daylights out of people. They don’t want to hear that “it’s going to be ok in the end”… they want to hear “you’re just what our company is looking for, when can you start?”
Since I can’t way the latter… and don’t want smacked for saying the former… I say “Hey, I have links to some places you can check out for Work at Home jobs, and a few other websites you can earn get a little cash here and there. Let me send those to you!” I’ve actually been saying that a lot lately, so I’m just going to share it here and direct everyone to The List.
Please please … did I mention please?… leave links to any of the sites I’ve forgotten in the comments, or email them to me so I can add them to this entry.

OOH… I forgot YouData They pay actual cash, via PayPal for every ad you view. It’s not a lot of money, but every little bit helps…. and it’s really easy.

And don’t forget http://www.craigslist.com is quite good for part time work, gigs, and full time work.
Nice ideas! The amazon and ebay affiliate programs also make it very easy to monetize ones blog with niche items too.

Hi,
I enjoyed this post, and I agree that internet earning is often the way to go in this economy. You have some great links in this post that I will be checking into. I hopw you will also check out my blog. (See the link above). It is new, but I will be adding much more work at home related content in the coming weeks.

Cash Crate might be all right in the USA but I hated it here in Australia. One thing I had to fill out took me about 20 minutes and it only paid .25c. All the others required that I download something to my PC and that’s a big no no. Plus there were only about 5 offers total that would have earned me a grand sum of $2.00. Currently I’m trying the niche website technique with affiliation or adsense and it’s making a little bit (avg .50c a day) but I’ve only got six websites so far. Plus how cool is this template. Very nice.
Finding a full time work from home job is tough
I found this blog website a several days back nonetheless totally did not remember to bookmark it – I will not make the exact same mistake once again – it is going right inside my personal favourites.
You made some great points there. I did a hunt on the subject and discovered the majority of people will recognize through your blog.
