Answer :

if you look on sites for jobs, like monster.com, careerbuilder.com and the like as well as your local major newspapers website for job listing you can, with enough perseverence find jobs that accept telecommuting. They’re few and far between but worth it if that’s what you need. If someone who is offering you a job requires that you pay money for it, it isn’t employment, it’s a con job. Remember, legit jobs usually don’t say WORK FROM HOME! MAKE MONEY! up front. Stay on reputable websites, meet in person, trust your gut if you get a bad feeling.
