Best home business ideas?? I'm 23 years old and I've been on a off about starting a home based biz I seen the travel biz is the new trend, advertising, mystery shopping, selling candles, and a few others. I'm trying to ask people who are doing well, but not so well that it sounds too good to be true. Something with a low start-up cost. would be great. Right now I'm working at Home Depot in the lot, boiling in the sun ( Florida ). The job market is really slow in my area and my bills are beating me down. I know a lot of you would say " find a better job" " thats life deal with it" blah blah blah I've tried these things and It's not that simple . I'm just looking for some ideas I would really appreciate it. What are the hottest business trends right now. I'd be willing to invest a lot of time. Also I would be willing to possibly take out a small loan. Really looking for something where I could make $1000 a wk or close to it. Thanks for reading.

Home business ideas??? I am a mother of 4 (all under age 3), I work full time in a dental clinic, and would like ideas of a business I could start from home in my spare time. I don't have much for capitol. I can't afford to quit working to focus on a home business untill it can support us. I live in a dumpy, rented singlewide trailer, so it isn't really appropriate for customers/clients to come to. I have a computer and have taken a couple classes in business management, I just can't decide which business would be best for me. It has been suggested that I start a website based retail business through dropshippers, then I could just process orders in the evenings. That sounds very appealing to me, but there are 2 questions in my head regarding this idea: #1. What to sell. #2. How do I keep my website from getting lost on the www?
