The truth about passive income
First, it is important to know what passive income and what is not.
Passive income is income that comes in whether you're working, sleeping or playing.U.S. Internal Revenue Service defines as income from the "trade or business activities that do not care to participate."
Some examples include:
* Income from property rental * The income of the companies that do not require direct participation or the participation of owners * Royalties from the publication of a book or licensing intellectual property * The Internet advertising revenue on your website * Dividends and interest * Private Mortgage Flor * The revenue from the vending machine have * The income of online businesses that you have put on autopilot
When I heard about the types of income for the first time, my whole world changed. I started looking the way I can buy or create assets that generate passive income for me.If I buy a car, which shifted its focus from saving money to buy a car. Instead, I focused on generating enough income for my goods to buy a car for me.
At that time, I have little money. But everyone has to start somewhere, right? My first experience in this world and the interests of my savings account is to buy a candy machine, filled it with M & Ms and place them in the space in my fencing club. I calculate the cost of a single M & M and find out how many M & Ms. give shooters other for 25 cents. Since then I knew that my margin of profit on the sale, I realized that average $ 25 per month in passive income after donating 10% back to junior high school program of fencing.
Some people think they are a passive income, when in fact receive residual income.For example, insurance agents can earn a residual income as a client to renew their insurance policy. However, if the insurance agent to leave the company, loss of income.
If you are involved in multilevel marketing or network marketing in which further work is the company to receive the income, passive income that is not true. If you can not work the business together as long as you want and still make money, passive income.
Great myths about passive income is that once you buy or create assets that produce for you, you're done. You may be under the impression that you do not need to spend more time or manage.
The truth is that there are several levels of "passive." For example, you can receive passive income from rental real estate, but real estate can be very time consuming.Usually, when you buy a property, there is no initial stabilization process that can include anything from making repairs to the search and screening new tenants. Once the property is stabilized, you may be able to sit and just received a notice of verification for a while, but then the tenant moves out, or broken water heater or a tree falling on the roof, and you to spend time on the property again.
That is very different from certificates of deposit at a bank where you bought it, and that's it. Of course, your earning potential in rental properties is much greater than the potential earnings on certificates of deposit if you know what you're doing.
Be aware of the difference between passive, residual income, and how exactly how "passive" real investment.
Why passive income is important?
Imagine if you do not have to depend on the job, spouse, family, government or anyone else for money. That is what this type can generate revenue for you.
In many traditional models of financial planning, you are encouraged to find out how much money you need when you want to retire. After retirement, they spend money. This plan has serious shortcomings. First, what if you live longer than expected to live longer and your money? Secondly, what if after putting so much energy to save money, we prefer to leave a legacy instead of spending it?
The key to financial independence is:
PI> E
When the passive income (PI) is greater than your expenses (E), which is in complete choice about what you do with your time, because their assets will continue paying for your lifestyle if you work or not.
The truth is that in order to become financially independent, there needs to be free of debt, pay off your house, make lots of money or become a millionaire. Just have more income than expenses.
It's that simple.
Passive income allows you to have more options. You can choose to live outside of the joy and freedom, not debts and obligations.
In a more serious note, what if something bad happens and you can not work more?How do you pay your bills? If you have enough passive income are also more quiet.
There are two parts to this formula. To become financially independent more quickly, you can increase your passive income and you can also see how to reduce your expenses.
So how more passive income?
There are two main types of passive income. The first type is passive investment income. To accept the passive investment income, you must have funds available to invest in this income vehicle. If you have funds available for investment, the focus is on the right amount of research and due diligence to determine the best passive vehicle for your situation and risk tolerance.
The second type comes from creating your own income vehicle with little or no money.For example, you can start a website that generates revenue from advertising or join a network marketing company that allows you to continue to receive income when you are no longer actively working the business. Or you can start your own business or becoming an affiliate of another business.
If you have money to invest, you may be able to generate revenue more quickly than people who do not. If you do not have money to invest, you should be willing to donate their time, energy, skills, resources, creativity and wholeness.
In my experience, the most realistic way to create passive income is to focus on gradual growth. Start by taking a small step. Do not try to generate an additional $ 10,000 per month in passive income at this time. Focus on what you can do to earn $ 10 per month in passive income and get out.
