If you want a better reason to start your business from home than this, you are not likely to find one. A study shows clearly that longer commutes have a detrimental effect on your health. The study cites lowering cardiovascular fitness and rising blood pressure, body weight and metabolic risks as major factors. Cutting out a commute gives you more time to eat right, exercise and (hopefully) get more sleep.

I hate long commutes, so does my fiance. I'm grateful to be able to work from home but I feel bad that my fiance still has to deal with the daily commute.

Good point. However, not every work from home business is worth it. You can spend all the time sitting by your computer you risk your health as well. You need to choose the kind of business that will also allow you time to live the kind of lifestyle you envisage like playing table tennis, going for choir practice, going to the beach, cycling, etc
