Hey! Welcome to wahm! We're a pretty knowledgeable bunch when it comes to scams, so I would recommend coming here to check out any business before you get started with them...remember, don't ever PAY for a job, training materials, setup fee, etc. Wal-mart won't charge you a fee so why should someone else if they're truly legit :)

I work part time for textbroker.com writing articles...there's really not a hiring process, just submit a sample of your work and you'll be rated on how well you do which determines your pay per word. It only pays once a month, but there's a lot of work and they're always so helpful when you have problems or questions. You could easily bring in $300+ per month.

Also, check out the previous posts on this boards...lots of leads are posted daily. workplacelikehome.com is also a great forum. Also, if you don't have a resume made I would suggest getting one put together, it'll help in the hiring process.

HTH and good luck to ya! :)

What type of skills does your husband have and what type of work does he enjoy doing. I know it's tough being picky in this economy, but if he doesn't enjoy customer service for instance, he might want to try something else.

Just a suggestion, I work for chacha also, but he might want to look for a better paying job as traffic has not been the greatest with them. I wouldn't think you would be able to pay your bills with that is all.

Customer service definitely pays more if you are able to do the phones. There is a sticky at the top with lots of jobs listed. Good luck!
