I recently started my own consulting business, from home. You MUST know exactly what you want to do, why, how and MUCH more. There is a career in this, IF you have a passion for what you do, a good idea, a business plan, financing, insurance, a marketing/ad strategy, networking established, business cards, letterhead, a webpage, subcontractors lined up (if relevant).... and on and on. Plus if you want the tax breaks for a home business, there are VERY specific things you must do.

This isn't a 'get rich quick' scheme. You DO get to make you own hours (but expect to work 80 hour weeks, sometimes, for no pay.) Don't expect to break even before two years from start.

IF you are still interested, follow through.

It works for me..I sell dolls and doll supplies on ebay and the internet and I do it from home while watching my daughter...It works for some people and not for others. It can be more stressful than going out to work sometimes, but it's great to be your own boss

Some people like it, some people don't. The most common complaint I've heard is that you feel like you're always or should always be working; while if you have an office, once you leave the office, you're done for the day and can relax.

thats cool guys good luck with it all, one thing that is a plus already is that you dont have to pay much money at the start cos your not opening up a store and dont have to waite years to actually make a profit on things

but what i ment was all these organisations where you buy and sell health care or wellness products

The one advantage that was stated already was you dont have to pay rent because it is in your house but the disadvantage is going insane I mean you would always be home.
