Do you want to work at home making a great deal more than minimum wage? If so, this post should get your wheels turning. I have created a list of several companies that pay their workers $20 an hour or more to work at home.
It goes without saying, but when you’re talking about this kind of pay, you are almost always talking about companies that are more likely to require a very specific skill set or a college degree.
It’s very rare to find a work at home job that pays in this range where you need no prior skills or experience to start.
And if you don’t have the right skills or experience to do the jobs listed below, keep in mind that at least now you know where the money is!
So if you’re thinking of furthering your education in order to get higher-paying work, you know what industries to possibly focus on.
So with that said, let’s get on to the opportunities! As always, I cannot guarantee these companies are hiring right now, but if they are on the list, they have hired home-based workers in the past and paid $20 an hour or more.
