Desperatlely need to earn some extra money but cant go back to work as have 2 yr old and also pg at the mo. I need something i can do from home that doesnt involve going out selling at partys/needs an inital outlay.

Does anyone data input or proof read for a company that ISNT a scam and actually get paid for it that they could help me out with??

would be interestd if anyone knows - anyone??

check out the freelancers/self-emploed thread as this topic appears regularly and many of the posters are freelance proofreaders etc.

I used to do proof-reading until ds2 was born. I got most of my work through friends and contacts of friends though, never through companies. Almost all of the work was for academics. Might be worth advertising at a university?

Very, very dull work indeed, but it paid well for the time/effort involved.
