I have a mp3 on sale at amazon.com the name of the album is What shall I do by kenneth james strickland its only .99 per song and 2.97 for the album feel free to check it out. I done this project because the Lord put it on my heart to inspire people to come to christ and also to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ. You see I don't want my money to turn around and be used against me. You can never go wrong doing work for the Lord, The Lord is still in the blessing business. I also is in the second year as a Tax Preparer I would like to some individual taxes this year my fee. is 154.00 if you find you need some help preparing your taxes feel free to call me at 470-244-5536 then again I would do your Income taxes for a little of nothing depend on your circumstances give me a call I believe we can work out something. I think the lord would bless me if i go out of my way to help someone that can't afford it. |

I have been reading the post here, so I thought I would write. My wife has worked on the net for 12 years. But she has never worked as an employee. She has been in a lot of different businesses. Made money in some and lost money in others. I saw a lot of negitive remarks about all internet things being scams. Wrong. There are a lot of scams, you just need to learn how to do your due diligence. Having your own business is not like having a job. I see so many people that say they want to make money. So they sign up with a business and put in maybe 2 hours the first month and then complain they didn't make any money and call it a scam. You have to put the work in to make money. I have seen a lot of businesses that my wife was in that looked ok. But this time she has hit a home run. She spends a lot of time on skype helping others. I know she would be glad to talk to anyone. Hope I can help. Terry |

Have you considered joining a direct-selling company? I joined Jafra Cosmetics in 1991, retired in 1994 at age 52, temped or worked at other jobs off and on for several years. The consistent income comes from cosmetics sales and override on my team. In the early '90s I did an analysis of my direct sales income and expenses: net income was nearly $39/hr after every conceivable expense vs. gross from my day job of about $33/hr. Cost to join now is $99 + sales tax + shipping. You'll receive a $543 value in excellent training materials, party supplies, products to show, try, and sell, plus additional products valued at nearly $190 retail when you place your first $300 retail order, which will cost you $150, plus tax and shipping.. No inventory or monthly minimums required. Order only the products you and your clients need and want. 56 year old company (was part of the Gillette family for 25 years.) Learn more at my website http://www.myjafra.com/RPREES. Contact me there. |

In response to "Re: Are you looking for a part-time job?": In Response to Re: Are you looking for a part-time job? : I hear your pain and I'm sure there are a lot of others on here who have their own experiences with veiled discriminatory practices! But what I found was that I could continue to beat myself up because job searching wasn't going anywhere or I could take what was happening and turn it around for myself and a lot of other folks. I have a home based business and I am always looking for talent to partner up with. I especially enjoy working with the more mature person and love helping others earn the level of income they are seeking. Feel free to contact me if you would like to take a look at what I am doing. You never know, it just might be the thing you have been looking for! Posted by mrslabel Yes, I am interested in your home based business and would like to know more about it. |

Yes, I am looking for a p/t job. Preferably, something that I could do from home, I am English/Spanish speaking. If a translator is needed on a part time basis, I am available for that, I could also do computer work (no sales please). Any leads? Thank you all! |

There are many simple online trainings that are very inexpensive and allow you to develop an internet and/or blogging business. In fact there are so many, that you can easily get sucked in and spend way more than you earn. I've been working full time on the internet for 7 years and have definitely formed an opinion as to what to look at and what to stay away from. Right now, based on what you wrote, there is one particular platrform I would recommend. They set up you blog for you, teach you how to use it (you can write posts about anything you want) and show you how to make money using your blog. It is simple as not costly. I have many different blogs that I use for my main business. This is the platform I would recommend for you. Freel free to contact me to learn where to find it. In Response to Re: Are you looking for a part-time job?: I would be interested in starting a home business using the internet 9Blogging, etc.) but don't know how to. Maybe there is someone out there who can help me (teach me) to get started... or even form a small group and work together. Any ideas?
