Please stay away from CashCreate, Treasure Trooper and other survey Web sites.
It is a waste of time and will cause you unhappiness.
If you choose to be suckered in and sign up to take surveys and receive, free trials considered you were warned. The minute you give them your credit card and personal information you have now opened your computer to unwanted cookies on your hard drive, annoying pop-up windows and if you are on a PC you open your computer to viruses that can wipe you out.
A lot of work to collect the "reward payments" that payout is not worth the effort over time. You will need to sign up for many types of offers, most of which require you to use a credit card. You start a week trial service with varies types of businesses or services, such as, an Internet service provider, book club, credit monitoring service, etc. to get your reward. If you don't cancel the trial, you end up being charged for the service and each service has different rules about how and when you can cancel. Very cumbersome!
Since you will need to sign up for at least a dozen offers before you get to $100 in rewards, it's very easy to forget what you have signed up for, or the problems you will have canceling in time to to be charged the full amount. The Cash Create recruiters you see here over exaggerate how much money you can earn because once you've done the high-dollar trials ($8-10 each), you are left with small rewards of a dollar or two. The survey business is not an efficient way to make money and you are more than likely to loose money in the end.

Is she handy? Can she cook or sew? Baking pies for holidays and or cakes for weddings. Many million dollar companies started baking brownies out of the house and walla. Mrs Fields is an example. Have your friend do some research. There are a million scams on the Internet. Don't pay for any kind get rich quick schemes. Have her type in the key words home base business in a search. You can also have her go to the library in the reference section. The library has computers and someone that can assist her.

Absolutely. Jetblue actually capitalized on this idea. They hire 90% stay at home moms who work when they want in their own office at home. Most of them work from home part time due to the parenting factor.
If she's a good writer, she can get some freelance writing jobs online. Perhaps she can start a website, a community, or affiliate website to market other people's products.

None of them are really legit. Her best bet is to seek out something she is skilled at and create her own home based business with her savings.

Hello. I can't speak for every opportunity but I know of at least one that won't "rip you off." I've found this web site that pays you to complete offers and take online surveys. There are lots of sites like it but this one works best for me. Maybe it'll work for you, too.

Sign up and complete your first offer to activate. From there, you decide how much you make at it.
