A Few Pointers About Passive Income

We understand income generation as necessarily an active endeavor. For the most part, it is. But, there are avenues that allow for passivity provided you prepare well. Today, people look for multiple opportunities to earn an extra buck. Whether or not you have a full-time job, you are quite likely to not immediately brush aside the possibility to enhance income generation. But, the real question is how. The how part can be answered differently, but for the purpose of this article, we shall limit ourselves to passive income.

You must have heard your family, friends, or strangers talk about renting out properties to vacationers or entering into a limited partnership. Well, to put it within a bracket: they are most likely aiming to earn some money passively. The idea is to ensure a stream of income flow from a side endeavor that may or may be considered to be a full-fledged commitment in the future.

But, what exactly is passive income? What does it entail and what can you do to explore avenues for the same? Alright, I have put across an outline for the same in the paragraphs below. Let us take a look at what we have here.

What is passive income

First thing first, you need to understand what passive income is. The hint is in the name itself: passive. Anything passive does not entail direct involvement. Now, if you club passive and income together, it should become fairly comprehensible that passive income is the income generated through activities in which you are not actively involved. Such an income keeps coming in at regular intervals and assists in attaining financial freedom. It enjoys a massive appeal because there is considerably less effort involved in its generation. You should note, however, passive income is taxable.

Various Kinds of Passive Income

No limits to possible avenues exist but there certainly are a few mainstream favorites for passive income. Some examples of passive include the following:

  • You can loan to a partnership and accrue interest on the same. The said interest amounts to passive income.
  • Rental properties make up for an excellent source of passive income. You can rent your property to tourists and earn some money on the side.
  • Affiliate marketing is also a common source of passive income. Essentially, you earn a commission for the promotion of another business’s products or services. For every sale, you get a certain sum credited to your account.
  • Investment in the stock market can also be considered a passive income provided it is not your full-time activity. That being said, such an investment comes with significant risk. Also, respective countries can choose to not treat such an investment as passive income.
  • Many sell their digital products to earn passively. You can earn from the sale, membership fees, and whatnot.
  • You can earn royalties for the creative work you produce and allow others to use it.

When to go ahead

Getting money on the side does not have to be waited upon. That being said, there are considerations you must keep in mind. Firstly, passive income is your side income and this means it is an income in addition to your regular income. You must make sure that the terms of the employment contract in your workplace do not prohibit any side businesses of the sort you wish to explore. Similarly, passive income is passive because it does not require active involvement. If an activity is consuming a lot of your time and affecting your other commitments, then you haven’t planned it right. Also, pay your taxes. Check with the local tax laws and determine the tax slab within which your passive income falls.
