Is the budget too tight? Do you need to make extra money to put food on the table or to pay the mortgage? Are you trying real hard to save money for a family vacation? Here are 75 real work from home jobs that pay good money for stay at home moms, students and side hustles.

As many of you know or may have figured out by now I am working my way to be a stay at home mom. 

For years I have worked in our family office and I really, really want to be financially able to stay at home and raise our son.  I tried a few years ago but my husband lost his job and lets just say life happened.   My job kept us afloat, it paid the bills, it paid for extras and so I kept working the 9-5.

I truly envy those that get to partake in all the small moments. 

Stay at home moms, working moms, all moms I celebrate you because being a mom and doing it all is hard. Yesterday friends of ours helped welcome their first grandchild in to the world and I am so proud of their family unit. I watched their daughters grow up and now their daughter has a daughter.

Having the opportunity to stay home full time or part time and raise your children is an honor and an opportunity.  One that many don’t get to partake in, whether it be financial or circumstance.

If you have the opportunity to stay home, even if you are considering it and fiances are stopping you. 

Know that it is possible.  I have been blogging part time for just over a year, truly putting in the effort to monetize for a short time and I am able to help support my family and our goals.

But I am not saying you have to start a blog. I am simply using my side hustle, extra income choice as an example.  You can make an income from home.

You can raise your children, take care of our household, pursue your dreams and create an income.

Whether you are looking for a way to add extra money to the budget or create a whole new income source, know that you can.

You can make money while looking after your family.  You can make money from home in your pajamas, because life in pajamas with a coffee in hand is way more fun!

I pooled a group of moms I chat with and I asked them all how they make their extra money to make things work and the following is what they came up with.  I do want you to know that what works for one, may not work for another.  You have to find what works for you, your interests and your family.

It may take you a few tries to figure out a work from home income, you may find the right one immediately.  Approach extra income with an open mind. The best idea might just be under your nose.
