Having a part time job need not mean giving up precious time with your family. If you have a computer you can earn a good income in your own time from home. It is just finding the right place to go.

The sad fact of today is to ensure we give our family the best we have to earn more and work more.

To do this you may have 2 or more jobs or both partners in the relationship have to work and the children go into child care.

This is a catch 22 because what happens is you have to pay child care fees that eats into your income and you have to forgo valuable time with your children.

Does this sound like you?

Globally there are families keen to give their family the best but rising interest rates and the cost of living mean 2 people need to work to make ends meet. So this is where you need to consider working from home.

There are options to work from home available but many are MLM (multi level marketing) opportunities that take time to develop and learn. Others require you to spend hours and hours learning before you see any results.

There are many listings on the internet that are literally business opportunities. This means you need to run your new enterprise as a business. For a part time worker or somebody that hasn't got the time for running a business this can be a daunting and unreasonable way to earn an income. In fact to do this you need to expect to wait some time before you see income flow into your account.

So essentially most of the options available using todays computer technology require you to run your new income source as a business. Don't get me wrong there is nothing wrong with owning your own business but what if you just want a job? Something you can learn quickly from home and do from home? Never have to go to an office or travel anywhere and get to spend time with your family working your own hours?

So what is the answer? There are very few answers but here is what you need to look for.

- Ensure you don't have to pay regular fees to the company - you may need to pay a small fee to get access to training and support - this should be a once off payment

- Choose options that don't require you to have a website. You are wanting a job not a business.

- Choose a job option that you know you can do and enjoy. Most will pay according to the amount of work you do so if you don't enjoy what you do you will not perform.

So that is about it. What you need to seriously consider now is do you want to spend more time with your family and have flexible working hours?

Yes? Then using your computer to make money will be a good and smart option.
