In life, we must either work for a paycheck, or we can wisely invest and let those investments pay us. Last year I had virtually no substantial income from dividends. By purchasing a lot of Growth Dividend Stocks, CEFs (Closed-End Funds) at huge discounts to Net Asset Value, and some Preferred Stocks, we have now over $70 per month coming in. We are planning for over $100 per month in the next six months, with a goal to get above $500 within 2 years. We did an article on DGI Dividend Growth Stocks (Click here). This Article goes into CEF funds in detail. And this one explains Preferred Stocks. Passive income makes you money while you sleep. We were taught in school to work hard, to make good grades, go to college, and then get a good high-paying job. Put your money into the 401-K or IRA and then retire at 65 and be happy. How does working your life away for 45 to 60 years sound like a good plan? If we can leverage some passive income to our advantage in our 20’s and 30’s, there is no reason we should have to work most of our lives. If you are much older, it still works to your advantage, so keep on reading. You are never too old to develop passive income. Passive income is income that you don’t work for on a daily basis.

My friend Joshua King started writing content at the age of 36 and now has over 140 kindle books bringing in a monthly income of over $650. With the compounding effect that this has, he will reach over $1,000 of book-producing revenue each month within five years. So being a writer can clearly be a method of obtaining passive income. Joshua King is the one who got me started on the quest for Passive Income. This next book link is one of the top 5 most important Investment Books I have ever read. Joshua wrote a 319-chapter book on just Passive Income named: The Biggest Book on Passive Income Ever.

Much bad information is there too, so learn whom you can listen to and whom you can not. Who should pursue Passive Income? I think we all should.
