Create a Passive Income
Passive income is income that does not require your direct involvement, on the other hand. Some kinds of passive income you may be familiar with include owning rental property, royalties on an invention or creative work, and network marketing. If you want to earn more, work less, and have a decent retirement, you’re going to have to start creating income streams that do not require your direct involvement.
How to Create a Passive Income
By Rocky K. Kumar
Imagine having a life where we have to work only once and the money keep coming in again and again, weeks after weeks, months after months. This, in a nutshell, is what the concept of Passive income is all about.

It is the best income in the world because it comes in automatically, without any major involvement on our part. (Although we have to do the initial hard work for generating it).
Here we discuss some of the ways of generating Passive income.
1) Real Estate
When one has a piece of Income producing Real Estate (One which you own and have given out on rent), then it can be considered a superb source of income. This is because the tenant would be working to run his business and he would be paying the landlord a fixed rent on a monthly basis just for using the property. Initial Work Required: - Investment in property and further modifications, if required, based upon which it can be leased out to prospective tenants.
2) Fixed Deposits in Banks
Just imagine having a million USD in a fixed deposit in your bank, from where you earn a minimum of 10 % per annum. That makes it USD 1, 00,000 per year or close to USD 8000/- per month, And the best part is that you are not even working to earn that USD 8000/- You are free to do other things while the money comes in. (Though in the above point, we have taken a million dollars just as an example, but it applies to small sums of money as well). Initial Work Required: - One needs to work and generate sizable savings in his bank prior to investing in a bank deposit.
3) Network Marketing
This is based upon the fact that, more the number of business associates one has, more is the business volume generated and more is the possibility of generating royalty income / passive income. Once a person is able to build a strong foundation for his business (which means educating enough people about the benefits of the products, business model and making them associates in his business network, then he can be rest assured that the business can run ahead indefinitely and he can expect bigger cheques every month in his mail.
4) Patents, Books, Songs and other similar Royalty income generating assets.
Under this category, the singers, writers and inventors own the rights to their respective assets and whoever wishes to use their work would be giving a royalty income to the creator of the asset. So, here the owner does the hard work only once and gets paid repeatedly.
