Today, I’m sharing financial tips on ways to make extra money.  Looking for an avenue to make a little extra money?  Corporate America or just the work force period, is not for everybody.  Additionally, many moms don’t want to leave their children to work outside the home.  But, you can generate an income working from home.

The first step is to think about your natural talents.  Once you zoom in on your talents, start thinking about how you can make a profit from them.
