Don't fall from those stupid "work from home" websites.
If you're still in school, the best thing you can do is study hard enough to get over 85%. If you get over 90%, you can get scholarships to pay your way through college, then get a good job. If you're poor, you should be eligible for need-based scholarships and financial aid as well. The medical field pays very well- you could become an optometrist, pharmacist, dentist, etc. You can also avoid med school and just study for a skilled job that is currently lacking sufficient number of employees. Try to go for a hard science, which should open the doors to more higher-paying jobs, as opposed to Business, which can have you drifting from interview to interview for years.
If you're starting from the bottom, there's no good way to get rich quick, not even hard work. (Crime is the best get-rich-quick scheme, but you risk getting arrested.) However, hard work WILL pull you up out of poverty and in a few years, you'll be on your way to a middle class lifestyle and the ability to provide your children with a good future.
What I would suggest is trying to get your foot into a specialized industry, and then move up in rank as you gain skills. For example, you could begin by doing menial data entry for a pulp & paper plant. While filing data, you pick up understanding of the trade. Always keep your eyes open for other positions in the company, and work your way up. Or you could start working at a greenhouse, and always talk to the more experienced employees to learn everything they know until you have skillful knowledge on plant care, and then can apply to a specialized job in agriculture, landscaping, or gardening. You can supplement what you learn on the job with reading related books from the library.
Another suggestion is government work. There are good benefits, and people are rarely laid off. There are a variety of jobs.

There is a book I read called "Rich Dad poor Dad". I think it's by Robert T.
First of all believe that it is possible to be rich and you deserve to be rich. Being positive in your life is more important to be successful. Being ready to face all your problems. Problems are not bad in your life. Problems pave path and give experience to build your future.
There is no easy and legal way to become rich. Only thing I can think of that you can do sitting at home, is if you put up a lot of work, sit and home and study investing in stocks and bonds maybe you can make some money. All you need is a small bank account with $100. This is not like a lottery. If you put up good work and reasonably good at it, atleast you will make money in steps. Start your practice by learning all you can online and stocks and bonds and then buy very few shares of small cap stocks and put your study to practice.
I have had some friends who had lesser than high school education and now they are such good investors.
The good thing is that you dont' have to work for anybody. If you become better at this, then maybe someone will offer you a job, if you can prove that you did well in your own investment.

You can't...Anything quick is either illegal or unethical. The lottery is a shot in the dark...You shouldn't have been waiting your whole life for riches to fall in your lap. Use your skills & obtain a good job. Be relentless as far as obtaining advancement, show your true worth...If you're meant to be wealthy it will happen.
Good luck

Try investing in real estate. If you can at least own your own home, you will be farther ahead than many...
