Did you know that 1 in 8 households include a home business ? Did you know that even Fortune Magazine is saying, "Forget the paycheck; your W-2 days are over. It’s a 1099 world now."

While some keep watching CNN (Constantly Negative News ) others are making a great living working from home and recession proofing their income . The days of working in traditional jobs for numerous years only to be downsized because of outsourcing or economy issues are changing many of the populations’ mindset. We’re not as trusting as our parents generation, mainly because we’ve seen the rug pulled out from people too frequently.
