Working from home is an ideal arrangement for moms and dads who want to spend more time with their family. The 21st century makes this ideal arrangement a reality by allowing people to take advantage of the global economy brought about by the technological advancements of the era. For those of you who are on the look out for legitimate work at home opportunities, here are three options for you to check out:

Use Your Creativity to Earn Cash. If you have a knack for handmade crafts, then you can start earning money with the things you make today. There are websites where you can post photos of your products and sell them from there. The website may have a listing fee and take a portion of every sale you make, therefore you have to make sure that you price your items right.

Be a Virtual Customer Service Agent. If you love to help people, then you can be a work from home customer support agent. You can work for big name companies from your own home answering calls and providing customer support for their clients. At an average, agents can earn $8-$15 per hour plus incentives and commission.

If you are interested in becoming a customer service agent, note that you have to apply to this job, get interviewed, and be trained for it. It really isn't a job for everyone but if you got what it takes, then there shouldn't be much of a problem.

Participate in the Global Marketplace. More and more businesses are now hiring home-based freelancers to complete tasks such as software development and press release writing. Sites like Elance and oDesk serve as the middle party between jobseekers and businesses that wish to hire them.

These sites are free to join and you only need to set up your profile before bidding on projects. Optional skill assessment tests are available for you to take. A lot of people start with very low rates to attract clients, but this is entirely dependent on you.

From these three options alone, you can see that working from home is indeed a reality in the 21st century. Don't be limited by these options though. There are several other work at home opportunities which you can be a part of in the new economy. Just be very definite of what you can and cannot do so that you will be in a better position to determine the path you will take in the work from home industry.
