The month of February I'll be offering a money-making tip every weekday. Here's the one for today:
Make money by working at home.
Yahoo provides some suggestions on this tip -- listing ten companies hiring for work from home as follows:
1. Alpine Access - Customer care professional
2. HireMyMom.com - Virtual assistant, professional blogger
3. Sylvan Online - On-line certified teacher
4. National Shopping Service - Mystery shopper/researcher
5. oDesk - Various professionals
6. Working Solutions - Transcriptionist, customer service representative
7. Language Lab - Teacher, actor, customer service representative
8. 1-800-FLOWERS - Customer service representative
9. Aetna - Account manager, negotiator, customer service representative, nurse and more
10. Elance - Legal, Web design, engineering, admin, marketing or writing professional
I think work-at-home work is going to become a bigger and bigger area of opportunity as companies try to attract and retain top workers while also limiting costs (like the need for a huge office building.) We're only seeing the tip of the iceberg now, IMO.
FYI, the link to Sylvan seems to be wrong. The link points to Sylvan.com which is a small project management consultancy. If you meant to refer to the national educational chain, then the correct URL is www.sylvanlearning.com

Elance stinks for writers unless you want to wade through hundreds of jobs from booger eating internet marketers who expect you to kiss their feet for 5 cents per word.

Is there a link to the job listings at Aetna?
