    Here's the thing: I'm a disabled guy with a heavly damaged body who's looking for a job. Due to my physical limitations leaving home is very difficult, so I'm looking for a little job I could do on the pc from home. I don't want to earn a lot of money, something like 100 Euros per month is enough for me. I leave in a small village where the opportunities for people like me are basically zero. I would buy some libraries or plug-ins and believe me, ask money to your parents is really frustrating for 31 years old man. Actually I'm using PTC sites (Paid To Click) but they need ages before earning some Euros. Oh...I'm not asking you to find me a job, I was just wondering if you have some ideas on what I could do to earn some money.

    Thanks in advance for the answers! :mates:

    Hi DiM, are you in Italy? In the UK you would find help through lots of 'organisations' and government departments etc. who offer lots of help. All I can do is give you a little help in the type of Google search you could be doing, and you may get lots of ideas by searching other countries and applying them to yourself: https://www.google.co.uk/#q=work+from+home+disabled

    I am not disabled and I don't know you, so no judgement, but from reading your post, to me it looks like you are placing limitations on yourself.

    Yo, check out Lions Bridge, I signed up for these 2 or 3 years ago, made 50 bucks for about 4h of work, and left it caus' I didn't get enough time.
    If you have basic education, you should be good to go. The signup process is a bit over the top, but once it's done, it's ok.

    Fiverr.com may be, or etsy.com if you are a craftsman. They may help you to earn even a little. That's all I can say for now.

    @ Diabulus in Musica,

    Firstly, I'm really sorry to know that you're disabled... :( :sad:

    I'm not totally disabled myself... BUT I'm seriously damaged all along my backbone ('lumbar spondylosis' to be exact !), as well as my legs too (I suffered several 'knee arthroscopies') ! :sad:
    When younger, I was very inclined to practice several sports, and now with nearly 50 years old (!) :( , I'm rather stuck (most of the time !) behind a Mixing Desk, some Hardware Units, some Computers and Screens, and some Instruments... to make some MUSIC !!! :rofl:

    Anyway, you can count on me to try to help you in some sense... *yes* :wink:

    Unfortunately, I can't (at least for the moment !) to provide you a Job myself... BUT as you're a really supportive and assiduous Member :mates: of this GREAT Forum, I pledge to send you 20 Euros each Month until you could possibly find a viable solution for your future...
    This way, at least 'one fifth' of your needs will be met... :thumbsup: :mates:

    If this can help you in some way, just 'PM' me to indicate me your coordinates (for instance, if you're in Europa, that will be perfect to send you these 'Euros' - a banknote within an [anonymous ! :rofl: ] envelope would be the better solution).


    P.S: Don't worry, this amount won't be in any way (mandatorily) refundable ! *no* It's the consequence of a certain kind of 'philanthropy' :rofl: toward a Great Member of this Forum... :mates:

    Who knows, maybe in the next life... :mates:

    Thanks JackFromTheMovies.

    I don't know...I don't think I'm placing limitations on myself, the fact is I don't have the right knowledge. I mean, I was thinking to start developing some apps for Android but that requires knowledge about programming (expecially Java language) and I don't know nothing about programming because I haven't had the opportunity to frequent a computer school, that means I have to learn programming starting from zero which means months or years of study. The same to do the web designer...:dunno:

    Studio 555...I thank you very much, really kind of you but I can't accept your offer, please don't be offended. :mates: Try to understand me, I would earn money with my work...

    Thanks again for your act, really appreciated. *yes*

    hmm..Tough situation to be in..i can't help directly either my brother. But I pray something comes up for you soon. Keep pushing. I would agree to consider looking into other state laws and continents. Although, it is understandable if you do not want to make such drastic moves.

    I completely understand where you're coming from. The money isn't as important as being valuable.
    But it might make Studio 555 really happy to be able to help you out. Sometimes its good to accept help when you know they're getting something out of it too.

    Or maybe talk to him and see if you can provide a service.
    Everyone needs fresh ears from time to time, You could critique some songs / mixes / whatever.

    I'd love to help you out myself but I had to move back in with my parents while I'm getting back on my feet.
    But once I've got my independence back, I'll help you get yours if can

    Hi!
    I could help you out with some stuff I need to do but dont have time.
    Now, this would be like a one time job and not monthly...
    What are your computer skills? Do you have cubase? Know your ways around it? Or kontakt?
    Please, if you're interested let me know.

    Cheers

    When I finish my 6 year Mucic course at university i starter do do another and my desease began hard.
    I could not sit anymore because takes 20 years to discover the desease and take the right medicine.
    So I decided to make Social Sevice without sit ( 5 years start up unutil my body collapse).
    Said that I believe that you must have rights in Italy and the help and information probaly will be much better in the ONGs that must be related to your desease. For instance I pay a montly 12 usd and they done all the juridical procedures to gain better and costly medicines. Also There are lots of info.
    When I was healthy I buyed lots of costly software, now almost nothing because I do not believe that disable people must pay the full price. I also write to Urs Heckman about discounts, no answer. I believe that 99% of humanity do not care about until the same problem appears in their lifes.
    Also I think the crack groups must share with people like you that always colab in the foruns and audioz :rofl:
    If I can help please Pm me :mates:
    I can help you a lot with music compositions ( I have a degree), despi-te the genre. I work i. ONGs since 16, Im almost 3 times that. I sair that because groups like Amor Exigente ( adaptation of American Tuff Love) is a great resouce for spiritual stability.
    Also I know that this community is gold for us.
    I intend to retire soon, but my heath is too bad for that... This is insane right?
    I invested a great buck in productivity like an ergohumann chair that I made an extra arm with Touchpad and keyboard. Also use a trackball And ergo mouse.
    Só its up to you.
    Accept with peace the thing that you cant change, strength to change what you can, Wizdom to know what you can change :mates:

    Here's some general moral support, since I am in a somewhat similar situation but have a neighbor whose situation is very much the same as yours. It's hard to specifically advise you since you hadn't listed your qualifications and experience, but if you're on this forum, you must have some techie acumen.

    Search Engine Optimization (SEO) work is usually done remotely ("from home"), but falls under the category of "nice work if you can get it." Even so, look for companies which are looking for people to perform remote maintenance like that.

    If you want to learn about computer programming you will be hard pressed to find better tuition than what I have listed below .. I studied at a top UK university and this material is far superior :mates:

    David Malan is a superstar Harvard lecturer, Eric Grimson is the Chancellor of MIT, and Robert Sedgewick is an eminent professor at Princeton teaching algorithms - his textbooks on the subject are prescribed reading at most universities.

    https://www.edx.org/course/introduction-computer-science-harvardx-cs50x

    https://www.coursera.org/course/algs4partI

    https://www.coursera.org/course/algs4partII


    As a little taster, here is the 1st Lecture of Harvard CS50x .. absolutely the best :wink:



    Oh yeah, all of these courses are free :wink:
