But it is not restricted to these people only. If you are an enterprising housewife or a retired person a home based business is your best bet for keeping yourself occupied in your spare time and also earn a little money to boot.
There are home based businesses and home based businesses. Just key in the words "home based business" into Google or any other search engine, and you will be astounded by the number of links that turn up.
And also the number of offers for foolproof systems that will bring you money in floods. And they will all tell you that it is easy to make money if you follow their system that is for sale.
Don't get carried away. There is no easy way of making money. If there was we will not be facing a global meltdown today. The systems that most websites offer you for running a successful home based business should, in theory, work.
But many an individual who rushed into it thinking that it is some utopian way of making money has found, to his chagrin, that it is not easy as claimed.
It is not the nature of the home based business that caused the failure. It is the wild expectations of the individual who thought that he could mint easy money and was not prepared to sit and sweat it out. Like all other businesses a home based business also has to have some form of input from the business owner.
It is his mentality, his attitude and the time and a little money that he is willing to put into the business that are going to determine the success or failure of his business.
Home based business opportunities are many. Some of them are listed below:

Some others require expertise and/or experience. For instance starting a Consultancy or Tuitions requires expertise and using your camera requires a kind of creativity and experience.
You have to decide which kind of home based business you are going to get into and once you have got into it, put all your best efforts into it and make yourself a packet, if not a fortune.
