Hello all:
I am here to present yet, another home business opportunity. this one is a little different though, because instead of promoting one opportunity, I'm promoting 5 with one website, therefore, I urge you all to at least take a look at these opportunities or at least sign up for my newsletter. If you have any questions about any of the opportunities feel free to ask them on this board and I'll answer them as best I can. Many of these sites have videos explaining what kinds of home businesses these are as well, so I urge you to take a look at the information provided to you. go here for information:

I also undersand that having a home business is not for everybody, but I urge you to at least take a look at some or all of the opportunities.
Thanks
To your success
Jessica
Thanks for the link and the information. I understand that one has to be relatively cautious when it comes to supposed jobs that are offered on a working from home basis. I will check this out though.
This is just a bundle of previously issued internet marketing schemes designed to sell marketing schemes mainly. A few products but lots of things like the Empower Network, Six-Figure-Income and related stuff that's been around since the 90s.
I hate to be a Debby Downer, but many of these opportunities don't pan out. In order to be a good affiliate marketer, it requires work. Lots of it. Besides, many people are hip to scams to either sell them things or make money off of them in some way, shape or form. Therefore, they're not going to be as likely to bite.
I now work at home as a transcriptionist, and making money at home is not all roses and butterflies. It pays little, gives you even less cred should you decide to seek employment elsewhere later on down the road. Plus, at least in transcription, it really doesn't pay anymore. If you do decide to work at home, seek jobs like transcription, which requires concrete skills, and don't fall for this stuff.
Sorry for the rant. This is just my opinion.
I have a friend who is working from home as a medical coder. I don't know how accessible that field would be for us but it's something to consider. The biggest problem I see is handwritten medical charts. I think those will be going away eventually but who knows.
I know of medical transcriptionists, but I presume a medical coder's something different?
thank you, Gracesong, for post four, and leo, for talking sense. couldn't have said it better myself.
I, too, do transcription work from home, and like Gracesong said, it doesn't pay a lot, nor is working from home the beautiful picture that many people seem to paint it as.
for someone that's quite a people person as I am, I'll be the first to say that it's just something I'm doing till I can get on my feet with a full time job, and live comfortably enough to keep it for the side.
Working from home is one of those things that sounds like a great idea, but I like getting up, dressing, and going off to work where I'll see people every day, keep to a schedule, and actually get out of the house more. For someone like me who generally has a fair bit of energy, working from home (even if you can do it in your pyjamas) doesn't really appeal much. But as Chelsea said, good idea for a side job.
Yeah, the isolation is what kills me the most. Theoretically, I could haul my pedal and computer to the nearest Starbucks and work there, but that environment is not conducive to transcription. Besides, having to pay back on student loans will really do you in.
Oh, that's cool, Chelsie. Which company do you work for?
Sorry for the double post ,but I think this is worth saying. If any of you are on SSI as I am, you'll know that if you make over a certain amount, then you have to report it. After that, they begin deducting from your check if you make enough. Also, if you work over a certain number of hours, then you lose your MedicAid, which is bad news if you are an independent contractor because you have no benefits. Ever. The best-case scenario, therefore, is to get a regular job or go into the BEP or Business Enterprise Program. At least then your employers provide you with a benefits package including an IRA, or you have enough autonomy that you can do that for yourself with your own business.
To answer the question regarding Medical Coding, it's basically translating medical charts to codes for insurance billing purposes. Each medical procedure, condition, etc has a code and those codes are used when assigning and paying benefits. Apparently, there are several different computer systems used and there are certifications one must get in order to do this job.
