What Is Passive Income<\/strong>?<\/h2>\n<hr \/>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">Passive income is exactly what it sounds like <\/span><strong><span class=\"s1\">Money that comes in whether you\u2019re actively working or not. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">It may sound strange at first, but it really does make a lot of sense.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><strong><span class=\"s1\">There are two main ways to make passive income:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">1. Investments working for you <\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The first major type of passive income is an idea most of us are familiar with already: <strong>investments<\/strong>. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">These investments generally create monthly income with a fixed or standard rate of return attached to them. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">This would include vehicles like bank and government bonds, corporate bonds, t-bills, rental property income, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">2. Business(es) working for you <\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The second type of passive income is the one that\u2019s harder for most people to wrap their heads around: <strong>passive business income. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Many people assume that running a business means you need to be constantly working in order to achieve any real success. But that\u2019s actually not true at all.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Instead, what you need to do is create a business that has the potential to be <strong>systemized so that it can work without you.<\/strong> That way, rain or shine, money will continue to flow in whether you\u2019re putting in the hours or not.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">The reality is that you want to have BOTH investments and business always working for you.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Watch this sneak peek video of <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/ftf\/invite\/?utm_campaign=ffc_content&amp;utm_medium=post&amp;utm_source=blog&amp;utm_content=ftf-blog-financial-freedom-formula&amp;utm_term=cta\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">my free video training, &#8220;<em>The Fastrack To Freedom,<\/em>&#8220;<\/a><\/span> and you&#8217;ll see why:<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/tMYeOcPq-1I?start=9\" width=\"760\" height=\"455\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2><strong>2. How Much Money Do You Need To Become Financially Free<\/strong>?<\/h2>\n<hr \/>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Now that you know what passive income is\u2026 <i>How much money do you need to be earning passively in order to be financially free? <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s2\">Read on to learn<\/span><span class=\"s3\"> a simple formula<\/span><span class=\"s1\"> to find out how much income you need to be earning from different passive income ideas in order to be financially free.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">The first step is to take a look at your expenses&#8230; <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">Step 1 \u2014 Ask Yourself: What Are Your <em>REAL<\/em> Expenses?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">Of course, passive income is only part of the puzzle. If you have passive income pouring in, but it doesn\u2019t add up above and beyond your expenses, you\u2019ll still never reach a state of financial freedom. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">The other part is understanding your expenses and <strong>what\u2019s actually essential in your life.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">Why? Well, when we are talking about financial freedom, there are two ways to talk about. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\"><strong>The first is being free just to be free.<\/strong> This is when your passive income pays for only your basic needs, but not much extra (like all the extra luxuries in life). <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">Then the other way is where<strong> you are able to get whatever you want, when you want, and still not \u201chave\u201d to work. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">The ultimate goal is the latter of the two, however, it\u2019s a great first step when you have all your basic needs taken care of, yes or yes?!<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">So it\u2019s best to create a list of your expenses that are necessities and a list of \u201cnice to haves.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">You\u2019ll notice when you do this, that it\u2019s much easier to simply cut or simplify the non-essential expenses. You\u2019ll begin to question whether you truly need them in your life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">Remember, even better than passive income, the best way to make money is to <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/6-step-money-managing-system\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">manage your money well<\/a>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<span class='bctt-click-to-tweet'><span class='bctt-ctt-text'><a href='https:\/\/x.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.harveker.com%2Fblog%2Ffinancial-freedom-formula%2F&#038;text=The%20best%20way%20to%20make%20money%20is%20to%20manage%20your%20money%20well.&#038;via=t_harv_eker&#038;related=t_harv_eker' target='_blank'rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The best way to make money is to manage your money well. <\/a><\/span><a href='https:\/\/x.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.harveker.com%2Fblog%2Ffinancial-freedom-formula%2F&#038;text=The%20best%20way%20to%20make%20money%20is%20to%20manage%20your%20money%20well.&#038;via=t_harv_eker&#038;related=t_harv_eker' target='_blank' class='bctt-ctt-btn'rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Share on X<\/a><\/span>\n<p>Let&#8217;s move on to Step 2&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6200 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/4\/files\/2020\/06\/Expenses-list-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/files\/2020\/06\/Expenses-list-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/files\/2020\/06\/Expenses-list-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/files\/2020\/06\/Expenses-list-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/files\/2020\/06\/Expenses-list.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Step 2 \u2014 Calculate <\/span><span class=\"s2\">Your \u201cFinancial Freedom Number\u201d<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">It comes down to simple math.
