I am 18 years old, and can type around 70 words per minute. I heard there are many at-home typing jobs, so I decided to google it. However, I haven’t found one yet that didn’t seem like a scam. Most have asked me to pay up front. Are there any that aren’t scams, and also would hire an 18 year old?



70 wpm. Wow, that’s good.
People would hire an 18-year-old that types 70 words a minute. Is there some reason you cannot go out of the house to work? To interview at some temp agency, for example? There is less and less word-processing type work around, but there still is some, and you can type better than most.
If you know MS-Word (or can learn) that is also a plus. Good luck.
OH, imo, anything like “type at home” is probably a scam, unless it is through a legitimate employer that hired you in an office with a flexible work schedule.
If you are an accomplished typist – word processor and have recently visited your local city college or university librarian, you can apply as a “certified” graduate typist, earning between $1.50 to $2.00 per page for a master or doctoral thesis. The librarian will provide you with a sample of the typing template (i.e., margin settings, font selection, page set up, etc.) in order to complete these projects. An average weekend income is about $300-$400 for two days work.
Good luck!
Medical transcripitonists work at home and make great money.
