How do I protect my identity online when I'm dealing with clients whom I'm proofreading for? I want to get paid, but I don't want clients to have my real name, geographic location, etc.
Unfortunately, there is almost always a need to be some exchange of information. If for no other reason, tax reporting. There are some steps you can take such as renting a mailbox to give out for freelance purposes. You may also choose to work through third-party sites like Upwork where payments and tax reporting are done by them and their escrow company as opposed to individual clients. Upwork will still need to verify your identity, however.

Angie, thanks for this informative video. A little slow paced, but I still learned about different jobs I could have just reading books and I'm so excited to get started! I'd love to know more about proofreading and how to start a business with it. If you could make a video about that that would be great! Ps. I literally have the same cat tower XD 😁
So I am too poor to do the proofreading course. I do love to read and do spot misspellings a lot. I was wondering is there are course that I could do that would improve my grammar and punctuation and doesn't cost much or is free? I am not always sure where to put commas and apostrophes and will forget the proper names like whether it is a noun, verb or adverb. I know this probably sounds stupid but I have dyslexia so I get confused easily. I don't know if this would mean this is not the best option for me, but I am willing to learn especially with our first baby coming in a few months and us not making enough money for me to stay home and take care of him. Any advice or suggestions? I would greatly appreciate it!
Angie, I really enjoy your videos. The only thing I wish it that instead of just linking your blog site below your video, that you would place all of the direct links to the companies you've mentioned below your videos. It is more time consuming for me to sift through all the text in the blog to find the original link I needed. Thanks again for the videos! You have a lot of good and unique ideas for work at home jobs that other You tubers are not mentioning (like e-book conversion). Thanks!
