How did you end up at work from home?

I ended up at a work from home job because of the need to diversify my income. Having multiple income streams seems to be a new way of life for many. With the cost of living continually rising and single income pay staying stagnant it is a way for people to pay their bills and still live a life. Additionally, people no longer have the security or luxury of staying at the same job their entire career. Companies are no longer loyal to their employees. Another reason for taking a work from home job is the freedom is allows. For example, working from home while your children are at school and after they go to bed allows a freedom of being there for and with your children that a non-work from home job gives you. And then there is the opportunity to work multiple work from home jobs that create multiple income sources. This creates more financial security in that if you loose one job you have another one or two to fall back on until you can replace the lost one. A final reason is the aging baby boomer population, many children are having to take care of their parents. A work from home job allows one to have more balance in their life and in many ways more financial security, then relying on a company who could lay you off tomorrow.
