Many people are turned on to the idea of working from home and for good reason. You save on gas and clothing, you don't have to deal with co-workers that you don't like (let's be real, there will always be some co-workers that you just don't gel with) and most of all, the peace of mind that comes from working at home is priceless. I've always been attracted to working from home but just recently have I started to pursue the option full-time. If you can get a legit, work-at-home job, then go for it. That's what I plan on doing. The money I save from gas & clothing could be put to good use like investing in my mutual fund, saving, putting extra in the tithe/offering at church, there's many ways I could put the extra money to good use. Granted, many work-at-home opportunities are scams (which is sad) but the opportunities I get in my e-mail are the same as a regular job, one you go to everyday and offers a nice benefit package. Many companies are offering work-from-home as an alternative because in this economy, you have to save any way you can. Who knows, I'll make enough to where I can quit my regular job and focus on the work-at-home gig full-time. I'm a supporter of those who choose to work-at-home because there's really no such thing as job security: People getting laid off left & right and some employees haven't had raises in years. My work-at-home gig will be Internet Marketing or Telecommunications because those are two lucrative sectors. Knowing me, I may do both because why settle for one income when you can have both? Working from home is a feeling that you can't describe because although you may like the social interaction, at times you want to focus on your work and that's where working from home comes into play: You work full-time BUT you set your own schedule. If you wanted to get a couple extra hours of sleep and then put in work. I see why many people are turning to working from home. As good as working from home is, some people aren't cut out for it and that's fine. To each their own.
