Unless you know someone who will let you take work home and pay you I would be very careful with any on line businesses. Always check them out with the Better Business Bureau first and if any company asks you to send money for a "start up kit" they are not a legit business.

The best home business will depend on what you want, how you define to be interesting. A person may consider a pet sitting business to be the most exciting work in the world, while you would rather watch TV than take care of dogs.
The key is to determine what your interests are, what you want to do, what is suitable for your lifestyle and your overall goals, and what can fit with your resources.
Dan Ramsey in his book "101 Best Home Businesses" has a chapter on how to find YOUR best home business. He suggests these 10 steps:
1. List 5 things you do best
2. List how others would benefit from what you do best
3. Find out how to give people what they want
4. Learn the value of your services to others
5. Find out who else offers similar services
6. Learn from the successes of others
7. Learn from the failures of others
8. Plan your own success
9. Make low cost mistakes
10. Enjoy what you do and how you do it
He then made suggestions on the best home businesses according to type. Here are a few of them:
Best Businesses Using Craft or Physical Skills
- antique restoration

True the health and wellness industry is the way to go. Nutrition is a growing problem around the world. Who do you know that has health issues, over weight or always tired. Almost everybody is lacking in nutrition. I sure was. This industry has changed my life. The people that I helped get healthier has changed my life. I love helping others and growing my business at the same time.

One in the health and wellness industry. You can live very comfortably with this because it is a product in demand. The baby boomers are a huge market and they are looking for this. I am doing very well and changing people's lives while doing it.
