  1. I’m looking for a job assembling products from home maybe beaded jewelry or something that’s not too difficult or to learn to do and doesn’t have start up costs. I seen some online but my research shows they are scams or no longer in business.

    1. You are correct in your research. They are no legit product assembling jobs out there as such. At least none that you can find easily online. Would you be open to learning some crafting skills and trying to sell it online? It will take time. But you can hasten the process if you tap into something you already know and are keenly interested in. There are several online marketplaces you can sell stuff. We wrote an article sometime back about 31 Places To Sell Crafts Online. Making your own stuff and selling it locally or online is your best option if you want to make money working with crafts. You may be able to find work working with a local craftsperson, but it is apt to be low paying position. People usually undertake work as an appreciate for potters and wood workers to learn the trade first hand. May I recommend making a quick visit to this craft businesses page? It might give you some good ideas for what to do.
