What are some realistic possibilities for working from home for someone with a chronic illness and little experience?

So I developed a chronic illness years ago. It makes working outside the house pretty much impossible for me. I ran my own business for a good while, but it’s struggling. I have all kinds of random skills and abilities, but I don’t really see how they fit together in the context of employed work, so for all intents and...

MossBear,

I saw the source was Euronews and my first thought was, “I wish we could have this in America.” And what do you know? It is here! Not surprised that California is leading the way. I hope this develops more broadly over time. We desperately need a modern rail system.

MossBear,

I hope we see more of this, including at the national level. When you’re living in poverty it’s easy to make choices out of desperation rather than what might be a positive medium or long-term step. Simply knowing that you don’t need to worry about the bare minimum amount of money can be life-changing. We really need to move beyond the brutalist notion that what the impoverished really need is to feel the pain of their lack and that this is what will motivate them. It’s a cruel notion and what’s more, it doesn’t even work.
