Each year you are alive, life gets more expensive. This increase in resources comes from spending, kids, health, and inflation. Wouldn't it be nice to have your income increase along with your spending habits?
Passive income is impressive because we can create as much as we like. By learning the ways of passive income, we can ensure we can generate income as our needs arise.
However, just like picking an orange from its tree, passive income takes effort to build. Oranges (nor passive income) do not fall from trees. Learning and making income can be off putting from some. There are no specific instructions.
What you learn will be invaluable if you genuinely make a solid attempt to create an income stream. Therefore you have to make a decision, you can go to the supermarket and buy your orange (standard 401K retirement system), or you can plant an orange tree that provides food for the rest of your life. Easy decision, right?
