  • Business Opportunity Fraud Flourishes In The New Year

    This article caught my eye but sort of peeved me too: All Business: Business Opportunity Fraud Flourishes In The New Year
    Selling the promise of riches and then profiting by selling the means to those riches is still a tried-and-true formula. Today, thousands of unscrupulous operators peddle it daily under the broad guise of a “business [...]

  • Working From Home Can Create A Legal Bind

    From the Times Online UK: Working From Home Can Create A Legal Bind
    Many home businesses in England operate in a legal twilight zone not knowing whether to continue operating under the radar or to declare themselves and potentially get hit with huge taxes.

  • Companies That Hire Home Based Workers

    We list articles like this from time to time to help you find work at home.
    This is a recent article from CNN/Careebuilder listing some places.

  • Escape From Cubicle Hell

    Home businesses used to be fairly limited in their scope. You typed at home, you did medical transcription at home, you did word processing at home. Get the picture?

  • Miami Herald To Outsource Copy Editing

    I marvel at these big newspapers and other media outlets.
    They tend to be extremely left of center in their news reporting and so, by definition, “claim” to care about the the “little guy”.
    So when they need to save money – what do they do?
    Many publishers source out copy editing to home based editors who are [...]

  • Another Way To Remind Yourself

    People who work at home or work at a “third place” remind themselves in different ways about getting things done.
    If you’re in front of a computer screen all day, then using a calendar program – like one in Microsoft Outlook – makes sense because it reminds you about upcoming appointments, tasks, etc.  It’s so good, [...]
