ALT-1 Are there any Real Online Jobs out there
Helium.com is one of the best sites I've found on the internet to earn money without any investment at all. It also engages your creativity and competitive spirit. Finally, you can find useful advice and information on other online opportunities and warnings about scams on the internet. This can save you a ton of money and headaches.
CDBaby.com is a website that allows un-signed musicians to distribute their original music and covers internationally. They handle absolutely everything for a really cheap price. And they pay your royalties extremely regularly. You can track your sales by downloading an online spreadsheet for taxes at the end of the year. It also has chat rooms with invaluable information about gig's, venues, competitions, training, scams...
These are but two examples of sites on the internet that allow you to earn money. It's important to make sure you find something that interests you, not just a boring tasks that you don't enjoy and you're only doing it for the money. Life is too short for that.
Here are a few more legitimate sites that I've heard about on the internet:
Tutor.com - If you have a Bachelor Degree and Broadband Internet connection, then you could be working full or part time from home and earning good money.
Dinosaur.com - This is an international website for retired or semi-retired skilled workers and professionals that want to go into consulting or 'gap-filling' (worldwide) in key positions for companies in need of an experienced, knowledgeable hand at the wheel and/or to train un-experienced key personnel.
AssociatedContent.comWriters.com
DIY MONEY MAKING SITES:
eBay.com - Sell just about anything OR Buy specific types of things (ex: damaged but quality furniture or vehicles within a limited distance from your house) then ADD VALUE by repairing/re-painting/re-upholstering... and sell it back online or off-line (ex: buy via online auctions and sell at off-line live auctions...)
The key to success on eBay is to buy low and sell high. With practice and patience, you'll find the right type(s) of product for your skills and interest.
Social network sites including but not limited to: MySpace.com, YouTube.com and Facebook.com (You can create anything and blog about it/promote it/demonstrate it on sites like these linking your original film/skit/commercial to your e-commerce website)
The bottom line is that online job opportunities are only limited by your imagination and willingness to work for your dreams and goals. I'm working at home right now and I'll earn residual income on this and hundreds of other articles. Once I'm done writing, I'll have a little lunch, then get out my keyboard and guitar to work on my next long overdue CD project. Everything will be recorded at home, on my laptop and I'll earn royalties on it for several years once it's released, then I'll keep writing on sites like Helium, singing and releasing CD's on CDBaby.com and live a hopefully long and definitely happy life.
You can too. Just take a minute and think about what you honestly enjoy doing, then find a way to make money doing just that... online.
