I'm not good with people and want to find a way to work from home. What kind of jobs pay well that I can do from home?
user
Well, there are some online tutoring jobs, although they're less flexible than a full-time job with regular hours.  You could also work in virtual call centers.  But there are many opportunities for consulting, bookkeeping, computer programming, web development, accounting, market research, graphic design, writing, and more.  But you'll need to search for the exact kind of work you want and you may also need to relocate to where there is a lot of work in that field.

What kind of companies have virtual call centers? I've never heard of those.
user
Google, Paypal, Discover, Amazon, several call centers, Macy's, Adidas, Expedia, etc.

Actually, call centers would require talking to people a lot, so those are out of the question. How much training and education would becoming a programmer take?
user
Lots. The education alone can take several years, and then you'd also have to develop the relevant skills.

I'd say 5-10 years of full-time education at a university, plus another 1-3 years of internships and self-directed learning afterward.  I'd also need to learn how to write programs in multiple different programming languages, so I'd be learning another dozen languages.
