So this week my wife and sister left on an "adventure" vacation to Costa Rica. Personally my view of a vacation involves nothing but relaxing on the beach, "sight seeing" and sipping on a cold one. If I want adventure I'll go to the movies but that's just me. In either case, because of this trip I've had to turn into my alter ego Super Dad!
That being said, I'm getting a taste of what it's like to be a single parent. God bless all you single parents out there doing this everyday! Don't get me wrong, my daughter and I are managing fine as you can see here: PIC 1, PIC 2. But Lord this is a lot tougher without the help of my lovely patient wife. So shout out to all the single parents out there doing their best all by their "bad self" raising these kids so they turn out to be productive citizens. I appreciate your efforts even more now!
In any event I've found some new work at home jobs. But before we get to them, let's get some housekeeping items out the way to prevent any confusion, hateful comments, threats, demands, etc… You know who you are.

I just wanted to say, I love love love this site!!! I am carrying on a very positive outlook that I will find something using the resources on your site. Thanks Eddy, and keep up the good work!
Any father who can plan his time, and work from home is a super Dad! I call this lifestyle by design as I have always had the dream of being an entrepreneur that makes money from a home office… And that dream is now reality.
Well congrats on your achievement!
But now that my wife is back from her vacation I’ve turned back into Clark Kent. lol
@Eddy Salomon:
I’m sure she’ll do as fine a job as you’ve done. The apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree. What a blessing a child is. She is just too precious, and just think, you have her all to yourself for now.
I totally agree!
Oh, my goodness! I just looked at the two precious pictures! Your little one is so cute, but the way she is looking so intently at the screen of your monitor, I think you are going to be usurped from your position in a very short time. She looks as though she is taking in everything you’re doing and in a few months this site will be run by none other than — drum roll please —
YOUR LITTLE GIRL
Edrena,
That’s been my argument about programs like Clixsense, Hits4pay.

Most of us are already clicking on ads or reading email anyway and don’t make a dime. Why not get paid for something you already do? So I’m happy that’s what you’re doing now with MTurk.
I don’t really know how to change the avatar, I just followed the directions you probably followed to get mine to work.
Thanks for the kind words about my little princess. She does look extremely focused. I tried to help her type and she got mad at me. So you might be right. She probably has her eyes set on my position. lol
Yep! And, until we convert to the European monetary system Congress is pushing for, a penny is still legal tender here in the USA. It did make me feel proud that I’d earned that first penny. I wonder if I should frame it?
Some of the “tasks” they have there are just exactly or very similar as things I have done just for the fun of it while “breaking” from whatever real reason it is for being online. So now, with Mechanical Turks, I can make a few pennies doing what I used to do while in “idle” mode while I’m online for whatever the reason (fact gathering, news reading, email checks, etc) and make a few pennies at the same time. I don’t know where you find all this information, especially some so wild sounding as Mechanical Turks. Well it’s a blessing (you and your web site) and I thank God for you.
On another note, how can avatars be added? I’ve read and tried to apply the instructions given but it never works for me. Take care.
@Wendy:
Thanks Wendy, not only were your words, words of wisdom, they were common-sense words of encouragement, which we all need from time to time. You said more than a mouthful and I thank you for sharing. And to add to what Wendy said—Eddy, I finally signed up for the Mechanical Turk today and I want you to know since Wendy spoke on pennies making dollars, I just earned my FIRST PENNY!, with that crazy sounding program, Mechanical Turk.
Thank you! Thank you very much! Please hold the applause! LOL!
Thanks for the kind words “Offer”? I’m sure you’ll learn a lot as you read through the blog and the new posts.
Edrena,
You go big sis! I know a penny isn’t a lot but its one cent that most people have never made online. It’s a symbol of what can be when you step out your comfort zone and give something else a try. It’s that first step you take before you eventually learn to run. So congratulations! I’ve known you for months and it brings my heart joy to hear that you’ve just made some money. There is plenty more where that came from. So just keep pushing forward!
Hi Eddy,
I came across your blog today and it’s wonderful. Thank you for the list. I subscribed to your mailing-list and hope to get more stuff like this.
Great blog!

@Eddy Salomon:
oh and did anyone ever tell you that you looked a bit like Nic Van Exel?
sorry off topic.
Phil,
That’s the first time I’ve been told that. But apparently I look like a lot of people for better or worst. I wish it would get me some free stuff when visiting hotels and other countries. lol
Love Picture 1 Eddy!! Wish we lived closer, we could get our daughters together for a play date.
Oh and there can be only one “Super Dad”, and that’s obviously me =P So if you need any help or advice be sure to yell my way.
Phil
P.S. Is it safe to say that moms going to be away during Halloween?
Phil,
I stand corrected. You are super dad! Definitely will give you a holla if I need help. Would be nice if we lived closer big Phil. Our daughters could play and we could chat about blogging and marketing more. 😉
The wife is gone for Halloween, but we took Bee on a Halloween party last Saturday. Her grandmother and aunt will be here for Halloween so we got it covered.
I hope you love Costa Rica as much as I do. My husband was born there and I’ve spent a great deal of time in the country. It’s just lovely. I can’t say that I’ve had any “adventure trips” yet, but it’s something I’d like to do. Oh and watch out for the mosquitoes; they can transfer botfly larvae. Not the best souvenir. 😉
Aimee,
I’ll be sure to pass down the information to my wife (She’s the one in Costa Rica, not I). We might have to get her fumigated before she comes back home. lol
Hi Eddy,
Experience is often a greater teacher for lessons that stick and wisdom that stays.
What I have to share here is something that will be helpfull in some way.
When I first started trying to find work at home type jobs I signed up for lots of different things. The idea was based on the same idea as going fishing, cast your line into lots of different areas and at some point the chances of finding a fish increase.
That’s all well and good, but if you don’t remember where you’ve tried you may end up going back over and over to something that doesn’t work.
Lesson learned, when you sign up for something keep track of the log in name you use and your pass word. Keep them in a notebook along with the date and any helpful information or jobs associated with the it.
It just seems like common sense right? Well, even the most organized person in the world doesn’t always remember that common sense is wisdom when trying to work at home.
I signed up for a life time membership to homejobstop. It’s a great site. But because of life and all the fun things that can happen along the way, I never wrote down my memeber name or password. I did keep the e-mail showing that I signed up for it and paid for the membership.
I’ve contacted tech support for help. Hopefully their calvery will arrive soon in my e-mail.
In my adventures in trying to work at home I have discovered that hourly jobs require resumes. That part is the same so far as the jobs that are done out of the house.
The jobs that don’t require resumes arn’t based on hourly pay, but pay per activity, such as reading e-mails and answering questions, or clicking adds.
Even though most all of them are pennies per job, it’s a good way to get your feet wet before you jump in and go swimming in the ocean as it were.
In this economy sometimes it’s thoes pennies that make the big difference.
Here’s why:
A penny may not seem like much of anything, but without pennies dollars arn’t possible.
Earning your first penny when you work at home is alot like the person who starts a business out side of the house and frames the first dollar.
That penny is a powerful thing, it tells you that you can earn a living without having to be dependant on a corporation.
A penny can speak to the feelings of failure and say “no way, if I was a failure then I couldn’t have earned this penny.
I know that alot of people look at earning a penny as not worth their time. But if you have a limited income or no job at all, that penny is as important as a million bucks.
Besides they do add up, it just takes time.
These things are the things I use to help myself keep going and keep trying. Hopefully they can help some other people too.
Wendy
Hey Eddy,
Great article today. Those pics are cute.
Ely,
I can relate to your office job frustration.
Letitia
Hi Eddy,
I came across your site today and I have been doing my research and I am going to start applying for at home jobs. I just quit my job yesterday and I am thinking of taking a different approach. The office I was working in had no structure or consistency and it drove me nuts. Hopefully it will work out for me. Thanks for all your information.
PS – You’re daughter is adorable!
Ely,
I totally can relate to what you experienced at your job. I’ve been in a few similar situations and it just made for an awful work environment. Hopefully as you read through this site and continue to do your research, you’ll find some viable options. But just keep in mind landing a work at home job can take a very long time. So if you have financial obligations, it may be in your best interest to get another offline job to manage that responsibility until you find your dream home based job. Either way I wish you the best of luck. Thanks for the kind words about my little princess. I think she’s sort of cute too but I’m biased. lol
Letitia,
Glad you enjoyed the article and the pics. lol
Wendy,
I totally agree. You’ve eloquently summed up what I’ve been preaching on this blog for years now. You’ve also shared some words of wisdom that I think will help anyone that reads it and actually takes action on your advice. What really hit home for me was the following comment: “Earning your first penny when you work at home is a lot like the person who starts a business out side of the house and frames the first dollar. That penny is a powerful thing, it tells you that you can earn a living without having to be dependent on a corporation.” That’s exactly what happened to me when I earned my first dime online. Suddenly a whole new world opened up to me and I ran with it. I knew that it was possible to make money online. While everyone laughed and sneered at my first couple of dollars online, I was over joyed because I saw the promise it meant. But like anything in life it’s all about your perspective. Where you and I see a glass half full, too often people see a glass half empty. But I think we’re converting people as they read through this blog and comments like yours. So thanks for sharing!
