Internet market and business research and development provided by Virtual IT Assistants. I see no reason why we have to choose between staying on our career path and staying at home to raise our own children. You can get alot done in just 1 or 2 hours a day. According to a search I did on google's fabulous Google Insights, the search for "jobs at home" has gone up 78% in the past 12 months. That means there are millions all over the world who are searching for a job online. There needs to be a real e-business that can utilize this branch of our internet society. The interest is there. The barrier for many people are the countless scams that are out there. Information is only powerful if it is accurate and not bogged down with a bunch of fluff. I am looking for answers. And finding them.
