Whatever you may have read about work from home assembly jobs, the truth is there are many that are genuine money making opportunities.

Among the former the variety is great, as many different types of item can be assembled by home workers.
Popular are such as CD cases, leather gift items, novelty trinkets and craft ware, and all will be supplied with full instructions and all parts ready for assembly.
With envelope stuffing things are more straightforward - you are supplied a batch of envelopes, plus the items to go in them for a mail drop, and simply place the required amount of each item into the envelopes.
In both cases you are essentially a freelance employee, and will be paid piece work at a rate agreed by the customer.
Be careful, when choosing a project, of restrictive penalties that may be applied to mistakes, for some are so readily applied that you may end up working for nothing.
Chosen well, a work at home assembly job can be a lucrative way of making more money and can actually be fun for the whole family including the kids and extended family too.
