    I just thought I would share with you guys what I'm doing now! I decided to not go back to work, because financially, we cant afford it. Day care costs are just too expensive...so I started looking for jobs online, and I found one that is PERFECT for me to have while I stay home with the boys. It is with Procard International....its a company that sells memberships to other companies or individuals for discounts on stuff like dental care, vision care, prescriptions...all that jazz. To start, you just go to the website, http://www.procardinternational.com/...r=JessicaB9356. Then you can look over everything yourself. I made sure I checked all over the internet to make sure it wasnt shady...I dont have time to deal with that!!

    When you start, you are a "registered associate". To start getting free leads from the company without having to do it 100% on your own, you have to either sign up for a discounted membership for yourself, or find someone else to sign up for a membership. I just signed myself up to become an active associate, and that way my whole family...including the twins and my fiancee, PLUS my parents and younger sister...can be on the membership and get discounts. They offer discounts at all kinds of places. There's a link to where you can look up places around you that participate in the programs...We've already saved money with the boys prescriptions with it, so that helps us a TON.

    When you become an associate, they send you leads of people that are already interested in the product, so then you can email or call them...Ive never called anyone...I hate talking on the phone. You give them your link, or "access code", and then you get the money for the sale, and then for every month they stay on, you keep getting profit!

    You can do all sorts of things to help get your own leads too...like emails...word of mouth...stuff like that..I did those tear off flyers...emails...websites...blogs...stuff like that..Its legitimately a good deal...especially just for myself! And I literally just work whenever I want...its sometimes a nice little escape. I make my fiancee watch the babies and go into my little converted office area and go to town...Its pretty easy and saves us a ton of money with me not having to drive to work...pay for day care...etc...

    if you have other questions, just PM me if you want!! I;ll try to help!

    Me personally...I do about 3 hours a day...spread out...sometimes more MAYBE. It just depends on how the babies are doing that day. My fiancee doesnt work on Wednesdays or Sundays, so I try to do a little more those days...but I love it because if I dont feel like doing anything for a few days, I dont and it doesnt really hurt me. Ive been doing this for about two months now and brought in a few hundred dollars extra...which really helps us out a lot since I cant actually go back to work yet. I know some other associates who make a ton of money and they've been doing it for a couple more months than me. But once you get started, you figure out what works best for you and you start makin some cash!

    Ditto. Doesn't mean it isn't reputable, but it is that type of business.

    GL if it works for you. I knew some folks that were in amway growing up and it was lucrative for them.

    Why is pyramid bad? Does it mean you're not going to make any money or just that someone else is making a lot more than you? I can totally deal with that if it means I can work from home on my own time.

    Jessica, I'm interested...do you have to pay any money up front AT ALL?

    I haven't paid any money to them at all. I purchased the basic plan that they sell though, because I've gotten discounts on stuff like dental visits, vision care...prescriptions..stuff like that...Anything that helps us save money, I'm all for it! Let me know if you have other questions!
