Hey, frens. I was talking to a relative I hadn't seen in a very long time. She is now retired but having worked mostly in sales doesn't have a good retirement scheme. She wants to continue working, but needs to do so from home and asked if I knew of anything she could do. I really don't. Do any of you have any suggestions for something a nice, reliable lady could do? She didn't finish college so she doesn't have a degree, but she's sharp and gets things done. With so many employers needing dependable help, surely there must be something for her. Please post any ideas you have. Thanks!

Thank you for all the suggestions! You know, she is a kindly person and I bet she would be great at having a YT discussion / advice channel. It's just that I/m sure she doesn't currently have the tech skills, but if she could team up with someone who has those skills, she would be good at the 'on camera' stuff, I think. I don't know if I could convince her of that though, lol. She's rather self effacing. The suggestion of resales is interesting because I bet she'd take to that. Finding that specific niche is good advice.
Thank you for all your input here.
If she is good at cooking, then maybe that is a way forward. Once she gets over the hurdle of camera shyness, which is easy if one is doing something, the real view into someone's kitchen is what Youtube is all about. There are some simple rules to get good lighting, and high-quality photography, but some peeps started with a cell-phone, so it can improve over time.
Also, youtube is pretty easy to use, just follow the instructions.
I imagine a cooking channel might well be fun, and can happen everyday.
