The Internet has made work at home as common as working at a
brick and mortar store. No need to get dressed even to start, just sit
in your pajamas or other casual wear, or nothing, if that's your style,
and work. A computer and Internet connection is all you need. There are
many "regular" jobs that hire people to work at home to do billing, data
entry, programming and hundreds of other chores.
Mostly, when we think of working at home we think of an Internet business where someone is selling a product and it's bought and paid for via the Internet and then delivered by the post office, UPS or FedEx. Other businesses deliver movies or computer software right to the buyer by instant download. Colleges have used the Internet for years to deliver lessons and teaching aids, high schools and even the lower grades are making use of the convenience as time goes by.
Other big users of the Internet are banks and credit card companies. Nothing can match the convenience of receiving statements and paying bills by the Internet. Many people which don't have an Internet business have a home office where they conduct Internet transactions. Today, one can live by what is available on the Internet without ever leaving their home. Medical problems and emergencies are about the only things not offered by the Internet. I feel certain that in years to come that will also be something that will be taken care of by the Internet with instruments to send data to doctors and hospitals. The technology is no doubt already but just not in widespread use.
