In this article we will talk about passive income, what are the best passive earning ideas
and above all why it is not suitable for everyone and how to create it
Who wouldn’t like to make money while sleeping and on vacation?
This is what gurus sell you on the web,
I, as you well know, when I analyze something I always like to be very logical and analytical
“The data doesn’t lie”
or better
“Data from the right sources do not lie”
my scientific studies always leads me to be very analytical when I try to understand something so we look for the data
This article is a continuation of the articles on financial freedom: money makes happiness
I invite you to also read the first part so as to have a more complete vision
The concept of passive income is very important in achieving financial freedom
I believe that only by investing in passive earnings is it possible to achieve significant gains
Simply and trivially for a physical matter 🙂
in a few minutes you will find out what I’m talking about
If you work and commit yourself, you can earn the money you need to live an ordinary life
but to get financial freedom you have to work differently by putting a strategy into practice
And one of the ingredients is: Passive income
LIABILITIES DEFINITION

There is a lot of confusion on the web regarding this term, between made up definitions and rough explanations
let’s start from something familiar to everyone:
WIKIPEDIA
do you know that on wikipedia there is not even the term Passive Income?
This term seems to exist only on the web 🙂
But there is (obviously and thank goodness :)) the definition of INCOME
that we can translate like this: “The money you earn every month”
There are different types of income here are some examples taken directly from Wikipedia

OK Jean but how do I know which of these incomes is active and which is passive?
Don’t worry, you’ll find out in a couple of lines
Let’s focus now on the meaning of “PASSIVE” (FIND HERE the definition of passive )
In simple terms, to be passive means to suffer or receive something without taking an action
opposite of ACTIVE which is performing an action
With these elements we can say that passive income is simply: earning money every month without taking action
and let me tell you:
A BIG FUCK !!!
I’m sorry to tell you but there is no such thing as making you money without you doing nothing
and I think it is neither good nor ethical to sell this kind of dream as it often happens on the web
now I’ll explain
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ACTIVE AND PASSIVE EARNINGS

DISCLAIMER: PASSIVE EARNINGS ARE OBTAINED WITH WORK
That’s right, finished the movie of making money while sleeping with a cool drink in hand lying on the beach 🙂
Feel here
the concept of passive income is inspired by an Anglo-Saxon vision of investment
(that’s perhaps why we Latins can’t conceive of it :))
which is based on separating earning (salary) from work
in simple words that the time and work we do does not result in our salary
TIME x WORK ≠ SALARY
From this thought comes passive income
passive income means a high regular income of money compared to the effort we put into maintaining it
or as Jean would say:
“You do the C ** O initially to build a system that allows you to make money
then once you have launched your system or your business your job becomes to maintain it and make sure it lasts as long as possible “
so we can say that:
- We talk about passive earnings when thanks to a system that you have created,
you have money that enters your account every month - While active earnings are what we are used to, the traditional type of work, i.e. exchanging your time (and effort) for money
WHY CONSIDER A PASSIVE INCOME?

- It is not that popular
The first reason you should also consider passive income is because you don’t know it
I ask you to take this test
Ask the people around you (friends, family, professors …) if they know the difference between passive and active income
You will be amazed by the result of this simple test
What I want to tell you is that you should consider it first of all only because the option exists (albeit little known)
as they say: you can only choose your favorite ice cream when you have more choices possible 🙂
- SEPARATE TIME FROM MONEY
We are traditionally used to connecting money with work and time
passive income allows you to separate work from time
or better
reduce the time it takes to keep your earnings
this results in a saving of time
time you can use for other activities
- POSSIBILITY OF ADDITIONAL REVENUE
The ability to separate the time and money relationship allows you to have more time
and this extra time you can spend both in more playful activities or in your hobbies (travel, sport, fun, relaxation)
and in other work activities in fact with the extra time you have available you can obviously also earn more money by working
actively or passively 🙂
another thing that I want to tell you that is very important is this:
- WE DON’T KNOW WHAT THE FUTURE CAN RESERVE FOR US
Being able to count on additional income is something extremely important
and it is even more relevant in historical moments like the one we are experiencing, in fact many people have lost their jobs due to the global pandemic
and many companies have had to close because they could not pay the maintenance costs of the business
Istat, the Ministry of Labor, INPS and Anpal even say that in the first six months of the year (2020) there were 578 thousand fewer jobs than last year
figures that are really scary and that lead us to think that depending only on a salary can be really dangerous
HOW TO CREATE A PASSIVE INCOME?

Many people think that passive earnings do not exist or that they are only the result of luck and not work
like the lady who won $ 336.4 million and created a trust fund with the name of her favorite dessert
I’m not kidding at all he really did that 🙂
There are so many ways to create passive income
but for me the best way is to start with your passions
In this blog I will tell you about money and everything related to the world of money
but in this same blog I will always tell you that: and I have to write it big
MONEY IS NOTHING WITHOUT A PURPOSE
money is a means, just like a car,
Being passionate about money is a bit like being passionate about cars
a car can take you from Milan to Rome and from Rome to Naples,
while money can take you (forgive me the stupid example) from being a person without a car to becoming a person with a certain type of car
in fact in the common imagination a person who has a Mercedes has something different from a person who has a Punto
And this difference in perception is made concrete by money
REMEMBER: WE BUY THE PERSON WE WANT TO BE
and this is one of the super powers of money
but then again, money is nothing without a purpose
That’s why I’ll never talk about earning to get rich which means nothing to me
but to earn to pursue their passions
And if you don’t share this thought I’m sorry but this blog is not for you!
Then we resume
There are many ways to make money (online and offline) you can find below a non-exhaustive list but I think very useful to get an idea
- Properties
- Airbnb
- Deposit accounts (with high interest)
- investments
- Blogging
- Writing a book
- E-commerce
- Online courses
Once you have chosen the way you prefer, there are initially 3 main steps you need to follow:
- CHOOSE THE THEME / TOPIC
Define your topic, your sector, your niche and choose what you want to talk
about - CHOOSE THE TOOLS
Look for the right books, the right tools and inspired by people who already do what you want to do - CREATE VALUE AND MONETIZE
Create something that is useful for people,
Remember that only things that are useful and that bring value to people work
once created make it a system and monetize it
CONCLUSIONS
We have seen in this article what passive income is, how it works, because it is interesting to know the concept and the first steps to create it
now that you have all these tools in your hands I have a question for you …
Which team do you want to play in?
Are you more of an active earner or a passive earner?
Leave me your answer in the comments and tell me what you think about passive income
