Two Options to Find a Job on the Internet
The most frequently asked question I get from readers of Telework People is “where do I find a job on the Internet?”, a quite reasonable question, and to answer it I've decided to join forces with two interesting services online: Trabajo Freelance and Pajama Nation.
Trabajo Freelance was formed in Argentina and reaches a global Spanish speaking audience. You can publish projects or offer your services in categories ranging from web development and translation services to graphics design and legal advice.
Pajama Nation was born in Belgium and was created for teleworkers or, as they call them, pajama workers. It reaches 53 countries and offer an auction based marketplace of microjobs. I'm Pajama Nation's country manager for Peru since a few months ago.
I will publish more information about each of these sites soon but you can already register and start looking for your next teleworking project today.
Good luck!

Do you have a blog? Do you write about products and services you use, love or find interesting?
Now, imagine being paid for that.
That's what ReviewMe, the new venture of the guys at Text Link Ads, offers bloggers.
ReviewMe is a marketplace where bloggers and advertisers come together. Unlike conventional ad networks, ReviewMe enables advertisers to ask bloggers to write a review of their products or services and pay a fee according to the blog's popularity. The more popular a blog is, the more it costs buying a review. ReviewMe pays 50% of a blog's review price to bloggers.

Buying and Selling in the Stock Market From Home

A couple of years ago I started working with this young fellow in Florida, Jimmy Hernandez, a Cuban who had been trading stocks online for some time with relative success. Jimmy thought that everything he had learnt making, and sometimes losing, his money while trading stocks on the Net could be the subject of a book and that's when How to become a millionaire in the stock market was born (that's an affiliate link).

It's Like Making Fun a Job

I've said over and over again that one of the most important elements for being successful is doing something you just love to do. I'd like to stop saying and start showing, and what better way of doing it that using a simple example, as simple as this word: mumobo.

Teleworking in CNN en Español
Two days ago Adelantos, a show in CNN en Español, featured a report on teleworking.
It's good to see that such an important channel for the Spanish speaking market dedicates some minutes to talk about teleworking. I knew that Chile is already working in some legal proposals to regulate teleworking, that's good news.
Even if teleworking is not considered a viable alternative yet, specially by employers, I think we'll be getting there soon.
The same show presented a report on how several U.S. companies are reviewing their employees' electronic mail. I wonder, how could these employers allow their people to work away from the office when they can't trust them even in the same building?

What Inspires Me To Work At Home?

Every day, after leaving Beatriz at school I walk by a river.
Many times I just stand there and watch, take a deep breath and feel happy. The sun, the fresh air, the noise of the water against the little rocks, it's magical.
In the rainy months I close my eyes and feel the river's roar, it's the power of nature, it's here, life is all around me. The river is alive. And when the rains have gone I can see its bed, I can even cross it jumping from rock to rock.

How To Overcome The Fear Of Losing Your Job
Many persons have told me they'd love to be self-employed, work from home or while traveling, being their own bosses and deciding what to do whenever they want to. That's the problem, they've just told me. They haven't done anything to live their dream.
Why?
Because most of them are just too afraid of losing their jobs. Their secure, socially accepted, but boring, position where they can expect a paycheck every month.
You must overcome fear first. Let's see how.
