What Is Passive Income?

I have definitely been a low income worker and it is not an easy thing to live with especially if your bosses are horrible or picky or impose impossible and inhuman work schedules on you.  But what choice do you have but to continue to work day in and day out to put food on your table, be at a dead end job that can't possible lead anywhere and you start to feel the life is leaving your body slowly but surely.


You look desperately for a way out (if you aren't already completely zombified by now) and of course you see all those wealthy Internet guru's telling you how they made millions on autopilot by simply pushing a button.  What could be easier than working 10 minutes a day while generating thousands of dollars?  Scamming other people into thinking that they can get rich with no effort.

Honestly, you may be so broke that getting scammed is not even an option for you.  I know that was the case for me many times.  From what I have learned while looking I'm kinda glad I was too broke to get scammed out of too much of my money.  I did try a few low cost start up options, most under $20 but they never really panned out well for me.

As a low income worker your choices for online money making ventures are fewer because more than likely you simply can't afford to spend hundreds of dollars on a new business.  You will have to find free ways to advertise or be really smart about using pay per click campaigns.  If you are like me, you don't have an unlimited amount of time to spend searching and you don't have unlimited advertising funds to promote your business.

Even if you choose to sell someone else's product via affiliate marketing programs you will need to find a way to get free traffic to your website.  More than likely you have to have a website and that can come with small fees for hosting so if you are not generating any income in a timely manner you could find yourself running at a small lost.  Which is OK for most except  perhaps the low income worker.

In a later post we will try to find solutions for those who have limited funds or if you have any ideas feel free to leave a comment.
