I want to be a stay at home mom, but I need money. What is a good way of doing that?

Question

I've been job hunting for the past 8 months and its not working for me!! I cant find a job, because I dont meet their needs. These places want you to have open availability and they dont care about your home situations as long as their business is going right. I cant work for them because I'm a single mom of 2 kids. And I dont have people to keep my kids for me. Yes they are in school and day care but thats Monday thru Friday between 7-6pm but most hours offered for a job dont work with my availability. So now I'm stuck!! My kids come first point blank, but I need to make money! I've tried some of those make money quick things, but all they've done was take my money. So what do I do? If there is any one out here that has any suggestions, please let me know.

Thanx in advance;-)

Answer 1

1. Their father needs to be paying child support and alimony if appropiate.



2. Start a business, doing from home, what you know how to do best. Something you are good at, that people will pay for.



3. If #2 does not apply, go find something at the library, learn something.



4. If you are not sure, ask people what they need and want and would pay for, then do, produce and deliver it.



5. Stay away from all the work at home and MLM scams. Always deliver what you promise, and don't do anything you think is unethical, immoral, illegal, or even questionable.



6. Involve the children, have them help you out, after their school assignments are up-to-date.



PS: That healthandwealthalways outfit and the Premier Designs company looks pretty questionable to me. Never pay a company to work for them. Why? Because it is very stupid.



PSS: I just found out that Premier Designs Jewelry charges $395 to become a distributor. They want you to pay them $395 to sell costume jewelry for them.

Answer 2

Sounds like you are wearing the same shoes that I wore 26 years ago. I was a single mom with 2 kids long ago and it is very hard to do everything that is required to raise 2 kids alone. Have you tried starting your own business? Think about your hobbies and turn that into your homebase business. You have a small amount of time during the day, think of what you maybe great at and what would make you proud to do for eight hours. I started a small cleaning business a few years ago, and was successful with this business. However, I had to turn in my broom, because it had become exhausting for me because I continued to worked full time and did my cleaning business part-time. If you decide to get into this business, learn all that you can and then hire a few workers. Start up cost is very minimal and do your research on what type of cleaning would you like to do. EX: Apartments, homes, mobile homes, commercial, government bldgs, clean after a move-out and construction cleaning. Now, that I am older, I am a contractor for this company, where I can earn my money from commission. I also continue to work full time and work my internet business part time.



Good Luck!!!

Answer 3

I know how you feel. I am a single mother of two also. I was so tired of working and having someone I did not know take raising my children. Then I stumbled upon the company I am with now. Their philosophy is God first, then family, then work. You can work as little or as much as you like. There are no territories. You do not deliver products. You do not have to carry an inventory. I can be my own boss. I now respect my boss more than ever. The best part is most people earn the cost of their kit plus with in one maybe two parties.

Answer 4

Are you looking for something specific? I mean outside of incredible hours and "dream-come-true" salary.



I know where you are - even though I was not a single mom, I was a full-time Mom and every time I looked for a job, I found I would only make about what day care would cost. I couldn't afford a job!



I tried a home business and swore I would never do that again-inventory, collection, delivery. But, I have found one that does not have that awful feature. This is sooooo different. It's not a "get rich quick" deal, but it is solid. All good.



It is not a "J.O.B.", but I love what I do. You might consider looking for a home business with residual incomes. I am building my tomorrow.

Realizing that you can stay at home and still build a future in a trusting company is joyus. Many companies are lead by women just like you that started out as representatives selling a product that they loved with friends and then before they knew it they were surrounded by others like themselves that wanted the opportunity to make money but to do it on their terms and in the time they choose.

Answer 8

I joined Premier Designs Jewelry. The exact reason Premier was founded was to help moms be able to stay at home with their children and to help others to get out of debt. I make 50% commission on everything I sell. I make about $2000 a month doing this only about 10 nights a month. They have an option to join with no money down also which is how I started because I really wanted to be a stay at home mom and I had no extra money to invest in anything. It's a great company to be with and I get to make new friends and play with georgeous jewelry all the time! I didn't even like jewelry until I started this business! I was a tomboy and didn't think I would like it, but it's changed my life in so many ways I can't even begin to explain it all. Hope this helps!

In April, I joined an industry leader in health and wellness. I am very happy with this company.



They have a very generous commission payout, 70% on a new customer's first order and 21% after that. I don't have to carry inventory as the customer buys directly from the company.



They are very prompt with their payments, twice per month.



All I need is a phone and a computer.
