Tonight I'm doing a story that has always interested me and a topic I get asked about a lot. Viewers e-mail me wanting to know if it is possible to earn a living and work from home.
So I've researched the topic and found dozens of companies that have changed their focus. Instead of outsourcing to countries like India, they are looking for Americans who want to work from home.
This is one of the best resources if you have questions about ways to make money from home. You'll find information on various companies including legitimate mystery shopping companies and how much you can expect to make doing that. There's also an entire section on how to avoid work from home scams.
Here are a few companies looking to hire people, many have specifically said they are looking for people in the Twin Cities:

Convergys
