Best Answer:
If you're looking for a work from home JOB (not a home based business), there are lots of companies who hire for call center type positions. And don't listen to the nay-sayers who say work from home and telecommuting jobs are all scams or that there aren't real jobs. There are. You just have to know where to look and how to avoid the scams.
Do NOT pay for a list of jobs or pay to get a job. There are a few of the legitimate companies that, after you have qualified for the job, ask you to pay for a background check if you will be handling sensitive information like credit cards. It's usually $20-$30 and from legitimate companies is a legit fee to pay. Other than that, there is no reason or need to pay anything if you just want a job. Some of the call center jobs, you are an independent contractor (IC) and some you are an employee.
If you want to start a home based business, there will be fees involved and business expenses. There are many legit business opportunities out there in direct sales, multi-level and network marketing. There are great companies to work with, but having a business isn't for everyone.

I use to me a mortgage broker in California until the market crash. Since then I have had to find something to do from home where they offer free training and support and it wasnt going to cost me anything to join.

Try contacting local doctor offices and see if they do outside medical billing or transcriptions....some do and some don't so you might get lucky that way. Other then starting your own webcam site, options are very slim as you may already know. Best luck with your search.

Try Cognigen and SFI. Both are free to join and neither requires a personal purchase EVER.
I get steady checks every month. Both give you the ability to help people and small businesses (large ones too if your ambitious) save money on a variety of items...travel, telecom, magazine subscriptions, credit card terminals, websites, domain names, and a very innovative pay for performance coupon program you can offer for both the buyer and the business.
These are not hype and NOT get rich quick. It takes work to make a sale. Anyone that tells you otherwise is blowing smoke up your....well, you get the point.
Check them out on my profile.

Apparently those people who transcribe television shows for the hearing impaired work from home. You just have to be a fast typer and take all your washroom breaks during commercials. I have no idea what that job pays or how you get started but you could always try contacting your local television studio and ask.
