BBC Offers Free Careers Interest Quiz Online |
 |
The BBC offers a short psychology quiz that can help you identify which types of careers might be most suitable for you. The free, online seven-question career psychology quiz. The quiz is based on John Holland's model of vocational choice. It is an attempt to determine which of the six main types of person you are:
Realistic
Conventional
Social
Enterprising
Artistic
Investigative
The quiz takes about 5 minutes or so to complete. It can be a worthwhile exercise if you are trying to determine what type of work you might be best suited for or help you decide what type of business you might want to start. It's thought provoking and you can't beat the cost (free) or the instant analysis. You aren't asked to provide any personal information whatsoever to take the quiz.
For me, the test results confirmed that I'm already doing exactly what I should be doing. That was comforting.

N.Y. Couple Charged with Running Work at Home Scam |
 |

This article in the Mid-Hudson News reports that a New York couple have been arrested by the Feds on charges they ran a work at home business that defrauded people. According to the article, authorities say the couple made more than a million dollars in their scheme.Both husband and wife were charged with one count of mail fraud, which carries a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison. The charges came after authorities received multiple complaints from several New York counties and from across the U.S.
The scheme was allegedly carried out online, by mail and in print ads. It involved promising consumers they could earn a "weekly paycheck" while working at home just by labeling postcards that advertised a product called the "Mortgage Accelerator Program." To participate in this work at home program, participants were required to shell out an $80-$90 enrollment fee, after which they were to label and return the postcards and receive payment. Those complaining say they shelled out the money, followed instructions to the letter and never got any money.
It's like I always caution, "Don't buy into someone else's make-money-from-home system. The only ones who get rich are the ones who convince you to hand over your money - not you."

Google AdSense AdSense publishers can donate their AdSense earnings that have accrued through January 31, 2010 directly to the earthquake relief efforts in Haiti.Google is currently accepting donations from AdSense publishers with an
unpaid account balance through January 31, 2010. Donations will go to Partners In Health, to provide medical aid on the ground in Haiti throughout the ongoing reconstruction efforts.
Those of you who are making money with Google AdSense know that Google holds money in your account until you reach a certain threshold (in the U.S. it's $100) and then they issue payment. If you have some money accumulated since your last pay out, you can donate some or all of it to the Haiti relief effort, whether it's 10 cents or $100. Here's how:

Is There a Recession-Proof Business or Industry? |
 |
The global economy has been in the dumper for quite some time now. In the U.S. "the great recession" has lasted for over two years. And although it seems like we may be seeing some light at the end of the tunnel, we can only hope it's not another train coming at us.
I had published my thoughts in the middle of all of this in 5 Money Making, Recession Resistant Home Businesses. Shortly thereafter, I also asked for your input on which businesses or industries could do well or at least get by in a recession.

 |

This week's work from home jobs take on an international flair, with work from home opportunities posted for Thailand, the U.K., and Costa Rica.
I've heard from several ex-pats (those who used to live in the U.S.) and others who were looking for opportunities to work from home from within a country overseas.
There is also an opportunity to work at home for someone who is proficient in both English and Japanese. It looks like that job could be done from anywhere in the world.
So where in the world can you find work you can do at home? Right here!

Using the Forum in Place of Reader Response |
|
|
I recently blogged about Getting the Most Out of the Forum to Find Work from Home. I've also asked my readers to get involved in the discussions around here, and I'm grateful that many of you have.
One of the great new features that allows you to participate in this growing Home Business/Work at Home Community is what About.com calls "User Answers", which are often labeled as "Readers Respond".
By far, one of the most popular User Answers is the one on Why Do You Work from Home or Want To?. So far, there are more than 100 contributions by readers and a few of my comments on the response that readers like you have left there.
However, many of you are seeking answers when leaving your response. The User Answers feature is really meant to be a one-way communication where you share what's on your mind with other readers. This tool doesn't provide the means for others to contact you and wasn't meant to be a place to ask questions or seek advice.
An example of what I mean was posted recently on that page. I took it to heart when I read the user's response to the question, which was:

Leaving your job? Don't forget your 401(k) |
|
Question: I'm in my 30's and have a 401(k) from a previous job, 75% of which is invested in a variety of stock portfolios. Although my stock holdings have recovered a bit recently, I'm still down about ,000 from my peak balance. I'm planning to roll over this old 401(k) into either the 401(k) at my new job or into an IRA account, but I'm wondering whether I should do the rollover now while stocks are still cheap or wait until the market has recovered and then do it. What do think? --Todd Gerecke, Lynden, Washington
