What can bring profit. Network Marketing - Passive Income

What is passive income and how to create it to an ordinary person? How can you live only on the interest from your investments and never work again? Read about all this below.

1. What is passive income

Passive income- this is a permanent and stable source of income that does not require any time investment (or it is minimal)

The main idea of ​​passive income is to create for yourself eternal springs income and then continue to receive profit from them on an ongoing basis. That is, we created something once and then we don’t do anything to get money. For example, the work we are all familiar with is an active source of income, since payment is made only when the employee goes to work. Therefore, you need to constantly waste your time.

The simplest example of passive income is renting out an apartment. You are paid monthly rent. In order to receive this money, no further action is required from you.

The sooner you think about creating passive income, the more opportunities you have. You will be able to accumulate more funds faster and more to implement your plans. And the majority have plans: to create financial freedom for themselves and no longer work, but do what they like.

Benefits of Passive Income

For example, you can put money aside in a bank deposit every month and save a good amount over the course of a year. Over 3 years, this amount will be even more substantial and perhaps even a percentage of it will be enough for you to meet some needs.

3.1. The effect of compound interest

In mathematics there is such a thing as compound interest. Simply put, this means that over time, your savings begin to grow not linearly, but exponentially. This can be easily achieved by reinvesting the income received.

For example, if we deposit 1 million rubles at 10% per annum, then in a year the amount will be 1.1 million rubles. Now, putting the same money in the bank at the same 10% per annum, after two years the amount in the account will be 1.21 million rubles. In the second year, capital increased by 110 thousand rubles, and not by 100 thousand rubles, as in the first year.

I agree with those who say that this is insignificant. However, if we take a calculator and calculate what will happen in 10 years, in 20 years, it turns out that the effect is already huge.

I discuss this topic in more detail in the article:

• Develop your financial literacy. To do this, read books about investing, trading, and the philosophy of wealth. You can start with Robert Kiyosaki and continue with stock market literature.
• Create new assets regularly. Look for new opportunities, they are always there.
• Create multiple sources of passive income. Sticking to just one carries risks.

3.3. Rules: how to become rich from scratch

There is a basic set of rules that everyone who wants to become rich should follow. They are not at all complicated and anyone can do them:

1. Pay yourself. As soon as you receive your salary, first of all set aside some of the funds for yourself (at least 10%). Usually people, on the contrary, pay off debts and spend money, and save what remains. This is a habit of poor people, eliminate it from your life.
2. Save what you put aside. This rule implies that the funds set aside cannot be spent.
3. Increase your money. It is necessary to invest money in reliable assets in order to constantly increase your capital. We will talk about sources of passive income below.
4. Save what you have increased. It is best to reinvest the profit received so that your savings grow faster. There is no need to invest money in dubious and overly risky assets.
5. Create several types of assets to minimize your risks. Whatever your total reliable income is, it will be even more reliable if you distribute your money among several such sources.

4. Sources of passive income

There are many sources for creating passive income. Each of us has our own knowledge, skills, capabilities, wishes, so only you can decide for you what exactly you can do. We'll just look at it in detail. basic options stable sources of money (you've probably already heard about many of them). We will focus on mathematical basis to calculate how profitable each option is.

How many sources of passive income you will have is up to you to decide. I can only say that the more there are, the more reliable and wealthy your life is. Therefore, follow the Pareto principle: 20% brings 80% of the result. Put a little effort into different industries to get the most benefit.

4.1. Bank deposit - a source of passive income

Bank deposit is the most popular means for saving and accumulating funds among the population in Russia. The interest that banks offer is certainly not as high as we would like, but nevertheless, this is really the most reliable way to slightly increase your capital in the absence of any action.

There are a lot of offers on the bank deposit market. Each bank offers its own range of deposits. If you spend literally 10 minutes, you can choose the most profitable one for you. This can increase profitability by 1-3% per annum.

There is no need to worry about the funds being lost. All deposits are insured by the DIA in the amount of 1.4 million rubles (including interest). That is, there is no point in putting 1.4 million rubles in one bank. It’s better to put in a little less so that the interest that will accumulate is insured. For example, if we are talking about a rate of 8% per annum for a year, then it would be logical to put in the amount of 1.27 million rubles and sleep peacefully.

The return on the deposit will change at any given time, so you should check the relevance of the information. As of 2018, you can find deposits with a maximum rate of 8%. In more reliable banks at 7% per annum. These are almost the lowest deposit rates for new story Russia. Previously, there were always offers at 10-12%.

• Investment reliability (amount insured by DIA)
• Predictable income
• No action is required from the investor
• You can invest any amount
• There is no opportunity to “break out” and spend money, because... it is necessary to terminate the deposit agreement and then the accumulated interest will “burn out”

• Low yield
• It is impossible to close the deposit ahead of time without losing interest
• You cannot store substantial amounts of more than 1.4 million rubles in one bank

I also advise you to partially store your money on debit cards, which give interest on the balance. These cards also give you cashback on any purchase. I use these cards myself:

• Tinkoff. 6% per annum on balance. Amount up to 300 thousand rubles. You can transfer any amount to a special savings account at 5% interest.
• Benefit (HomeCredit Bank). 7% per annum on balance. Amount up to 300 thousand rubles.

To summarize, we can say that it makes sense to have some part of the money on deposits, because... it is a liquid and reliable asset.

4.2. Real estate

Real estate has always been and will be in trend among investors. Such purchases can be visually seen and felt. However, their profitability is extremely low, but first things first.

You can make money in real estate in two ways:

1. Rent
2. Resale

For passive income, the first option is considered, since the second method is more risky and requires a constant search for new good offers on the market.

The following types of real estate investments are distinguished:

• Residential (apartments)
• Commercial (garages, office premises, warehouses)
• New buildings (investments in the construction of new facilities)

Large investors buy commercial real estate more often, since the yield from renting out non-residential premises usually brings more profit, and also does not require any repairs. However, this situation arises only during favorable periods of the economy, when GDP is growing steadily and inflation is within acceptable limits.

It is difficult for an ordinary person to buy commercial real estate due to its high cost. Objects vary, but usually a good location costs 3-5 one-room apartments. Therefore, many would rather choose the option of purchasing 3 apartments than one such property.

Since 2014, the economic situation in Russia has been quite difficult. Real estate prices are not rising. Therefore, many who invested in commercial real estate are now at a loss. Residential prices also fell, but with slightly less losses for the investor.

The rental yield is a modest 4-6% per annum. This is even less than on bank deposits. At the same time, there are still risks of damage to property by tenants and periodically you will have to invest in repairs (rarely, but such moments still happen).

Of course, it is worth counting on the fact that real estate will rise in price over time, but this is an extremely long process. For its value to increase, there must be economic growth in the country as a whole. Otherwise, due to salary cuts and high inflation, no one risks taking out a mortgage, even with low rates.

• High reliability
• Real estate can actually be seen with your eyes, which is very important for many people
• Stable income from renting
• Great option for risk diversification

• Low yield
• Low liquidity (when selling, you will have to look for buyers at the average market price, plus another 2-3 weeks to complete the transaction)
• There are overhead costs for maintaining the property
• Big investment(apartments cost several million rubles minimum)

4.3. Securities

The securities market is traditionally considered one of the most profitable options for increasing money. Yields here are on average at the level of 8% -20% per annum, provided that you act on the “buy and hold” principle. If you engage in trading, you can significantly increase these numbers and get 30%, and even 100%.

High profitability and greater liquidity allow you to quickly and efficiently manage your capital. Anyone can enter the market, and all it takes is a small investment. I would recommend entering the market with amounts starting from 100 thousand rubles.

To open a brokerage account online, you can use the following brokers:

These are leaders in the provision of brokerage services in the market. I recommend working only with them. They have low commissions and a wide selection of trading instruments.

Multiple sources of income is a phrase that migrated into our vocabulary from books on personal finance by foreign authors. In this publication I would like to talk a little about how modern realities it is possible for an ordinary person to create additional multiple sources of income and what benefits they will bring.

I used to always think that you need to find a good high paying job and work for the good of the Motherland, climbing career ladder. And I thought so until the company was sold and reorganization began. The new management of the company decided to optimize many processes, and therefore it was decided to lay off some employees.

My career was suddenly in jeopardy. My way of life was under threat. After all, I was used to consistently receiving my thousand dollars, on which I lived as I wanted. I suddenly realized that my stability was in the hands of other people. Their decision depended on whether I would go to my favorite sushi bar next month, whether I would be able to buy new sneakers, whether I would go on vacation.

It was then that I thought about the fact that I needed insurance. Cash insurance. I realized that I needed additional sources of income that would insure each other in case one of the sources dried up.

I began to actively look for such and work on them. Some of these sources lie literally under our feet. But many people don't notice them. Or they don't understand the point.

If you look at everyday things from a different perspective, namely from the perspective of multiple sources of income, you will find solutions to many financial problems.

Basic Concepts

First you need to identify all your money streams, which, when collected together, form your financial river. Personally, I'm a huge fan of this approach to the topic of multiple income streams. And I constantly work in two directions:

• Increasing multiple sources of income
• Increasing the depth (width) of each source of income

Our personal record (mine and my wife’s) for the number of multiple sources of income created is 10. This means that we had ten sources of income at the same time.

Types of Multiple Sources of Income

I suggest you get to know them on my personal example:

1. My main job;
2. Wife's main job;
3. Additional work: Preparation of photo reports for an advertising company;
4. Additional work: Mystery shopper;
5. Own small business (tanning studio);
6. Rental Property;
7. Inconsistent earnings.

And this is what my list of income sources looks like now:

1. Income from Yandex.Direct and Google Adwords contextual advertising placed on the blog;
2. Income from banners placed on the blog (see also:);
3. Income from Nolix advertising line posted on the blog;
4. Income from affiliate programs;
5. Income from webinars;
6. Income from the sale of information products;
7. Income from consultations on developing your own blog, making money on it, investing;
8. Income from coaching and mentoring;
9. Income from the online store MisterSaver.ru;
10. Wife’s income (she recently launched a small project on social networks selling stylish shoes from the USA);
11. Child benefits (for the child the wife receives social payments during maternity leave);
12. Inconsistent earnings.

As you understand, together all these sources of income bring good income. And most importantly, I am insured. If something happens to one source (it runs out), then I always have a bunch of others that will not let me die of hunger.

Moreover, I have in mind several dozen more options for creating additional sources of income for which I simply don’t have enough time right now. I say this to mean that even if all the listed sources of income suddenly “bend” and cease to exist, then I will begin to earn money in other ways that will replace those that existed.

Where do all these ideas come from?

It's actually simple. Creating sources of income online required me to develop various skills. For example, I learned how to write articles for this site. This is called copywriting, see the article on this topic, which will also teach you how to make money on the Internet by writing various texts to order:

I can also create high-quality contextual advertising. This is also what I learned in the process of creating the income streams listed above. Now I place contextual advertising for my projects. But if something happens to them, I can easily find a job and promote other people’s projects using Yandex.Direct and Google Adwords.

For me it's a continuous process. I'm constantly looking for somewhere to earn extra money. I am always interested in different, new opportunities for obtaining multiple sources of income. This is called increasing the number of sources of income.

Increasing the depth of each income source means working to increase the income from a specific source. For example, if you have a deposit in a bank, then regularly set aside an additional amount of money from your main sources and increase the deposit amount. This will allow you to receive a greater return on your deposit. Yes, yes, you can also earn money on bank deposits.

Today there is great amount various possibilities. It's all about you! How lazy are you to take care of your future? I have many friends who have a lot of free time, but use this time poorly. They're just stupidly messing around.

My position on this issue is this: create conditions for yourself to be idle. Create a passive source of income that will more than cover all your current expenses, and then do what you want. That is why I work a lot now so that I can work little later in the future. I understand that except for myself, no one can change fate. There will be more time for rest, but for now I will work. Moreover, I enjoy it

THERE IS NO WORD I CAN’T, THERE IS A WORD I DON’T WANT!

When someone tells me that I can’t or that I’m not like you, I understand that a person simply does not want to change his life and his destiny. This is a person who lives in illusions and hopes that someday the time will come and his whole life will change with the wave of a magic wand. I'm not like that!

Open books, the Internet, newspapers for free advertisements. Chat with friends not about how cool you were drinking all weekend, but about where and how you can make money. Try it, do it

There are no mistakes in life, only lessons. There is no such thing as a negative experience, only opportunities to grow, learn and move forward along the road of self-improvement. Strength comes from struggle. Even pain can be a wonderful teacher. (Robin Sharma, The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari)

How to Create Multiple Streams of Income

Before we begin to create multiple sources of income, we need to understand and decide how to do it correctly, what to spend our energy on at the beginning of the journey, and what on later.

We need to have a map of the area on hand that will help us get from point A to point B in the shortest possible way.

People's time is limited, as well as their strength and resources (by resources we mean connections, acquaintances). If hired work alone takes 8-12 hours a day, then there is simply no time or energy left for anything else.

Therefore you must understand that creating multiple sources of income is an art, which implies having an action plan, the ability to set priorities, a strategy for achieving goals, and many other skills and abilities.

Proper use of these skills turns the process of creating multiple sources of income into an art that is no less enjoyable than participating in sports, going to the ballet, going to the theater, watching a movie, or attending a concert of a popular rock band.

Step #1: Foundation as main work

So where should you start creating multiple streams of income?

First of all, it is necessary move from simple to complex. One of the characteristics of Russian people is that we want to get everything at once. We don’t like to wait, we don’t like to deny ourselves something, we want everything at once.

You need to understand that such a position is harmful and will not give you anything good. Yes, there are exceptions to the rules. However, each case must be considered in detail. And if you have examples when people are for short term created a lot of capital for themselves through several sources of income, then you need to understand the details of what helped them.

Often we don't see real facts, which helped people take off. Some received support from family or friends, some found themselves in the right place at the right time, some are not afraid to take risks, etc.

Building Multiple Streams of Income Starts with the Foundation. And most often this foundation is hired work. Working for your uncle is a linear source of income; it can be compared to a shovel. While we are digging, the income is coming in; as soon as we sit down to rest and put the shovel down, the income stops coming. There is also passive income, which, unlike linear income, is similar to an automatic mechanism. Once configured, it then works fully automatically. We'll talk more about passive income in the next section.

For me personally, the construction of my profitable streams began with hired work. I was 20 years old, I didn’t know and didn’t know how to make money.

Pay attention to these words. You need to be able to earn money. And the more versatile you are at doing this, the more sources of income you can create!

When you are 20 years old and you are a student who spent all the previous years hanging on to your parents, is it worth talking about? about the ability to make money? This skill does not exist and needs to be learned. Of course, there are people who start earning money at the age of 15-16, and even earlier.

This is not what we’re talking about now, but the fact that if you don’t know how to create several sources of income, then start with one. The easiest option in this case is to find a hired job.

Hiring work will be your first source of knowledge about making money and it will give you the opportunity to create some savings, with the help of which you will subsequently be able to create new sources of income. , it was this that helped me find a high-paying job.

As noted above, hired work takes a lot of time, which has a significant impact on the creation of the following ways to earn money. This can be a barrier to building multiple sources of income.

And in such a situation, it would be optimal to turn your attention to such sources of income, which are called passive.

Step #2: Passive Income Sources

Passive sources of income work for you. Having spent your efforts once, then you will only reap the benefits of your activities.

An example can be given. For example, you are employed and you have practically no free time to create new sources of income. You can save a couple of thousand rubles from your salary and...

Then, you can forget about this deposit until the next month, when you receive your salary again and you will have the opportunity to put another thousand rubles into the bank, for example.

That is, as you understand, you do not need to worry about this type of income every day. will work for you around the clock, without breaks or weekends. He will generate new money for you, this is his passivity.

This way you will already have two sources of income, after which you move on to considering the next option.

But when choosing next method earning money is also based on your capabilities, existing circumstances, such as hired work, family, children, etc.

You can continue to dig further into investments and play with more complex financial instruments, for example. Or look for new ways to make money in some completely new topic, for example, start in your free time from your main job.

As a result, starting with one type of income, from hired work, you need to gradually create new sources of income that will increase your income. Income growth may not be observed immediately. But in any case, your total capital should constantly increase. By capital in this situation we mean not only money.

For example, when I started creating multiple sources of income, for a long time my main source of income was work. For several years, I saved some money from each salary.

I distributed the set aside money to various, among which were,,. Also, I used part of the money to buy something for myself. So I subsequently bought a car.

IN pure form I had no money saved up. I had a car, as well as an agreement with financial institutions and statements indicating that I had deposited funds into their account.

IN in this example It was not the money that was capital, but what I invested it in. And every day the amount of my capital changed in proportion to the value of the financial instruments in which I had invested money.

The same car was losing value every day. The price of shares rose and fell. The bank deposit increased regularly, etc.

As you understand, I started small, with the first thousand rubles set aside, which over time turned into a million, which I wrote about.

To consolidate our understanding of capital, I will give another example from my own practice. In 2007, I worked as an ordinary manager in a telecommunications company. I worked there for about 3 years, I had a good salary, but there was no career growth.

It so happened that our parent company changed management, which began the reorganization of the entire enterprise. Once my manager called me and warned me that layoffs were coming and I would be one of the first candidates for relegation due to the fact that...

At the same time, the manager added that he would be glad to lay off someone else, since there were less useful employees in our department, but he would not be able to do this, since the head management, in order to reduce costs and not pay compensation, would first of all lay off those people who doesn't match job descriptions.

In general, it didn’t matter to them who to lay off. It was important for them to reduce costs at any cost. At that moment, I had a turning point that radically affected my attitude towards hired work and my entire subsequent fate.

I realized that no matter how good an employee you are, it will not help you keep your job. Your destiny and career will always be at risk.

And then I decided to start my own business, so as not to depend on someone

When I found a business idea that was interesting to me, in order to bring it to life I had to cut off the head of all other sources of income.

I quit my paid job without waiting for the shameful layoff. I sold all mine and took the money out. It turned out to be a tidy sum with which I opened a small tanning studio.

I rented a room where I did some cosmetic renovations. I purchased the necessary equipment. I invited specialists who installed everything for me, set it up and started working for themselves.

Before we continue, I need to make a small digression, since initially we are talking about creating multiple sources of income. then flexibility is needed in this matter. Sometimes there are moments when you focus on one thing. Sometimes you can churn out one source of income after another.

The ideal option is when you create some kind of source of income, which can then work without your active participation. This will make it much easier for you to create one source of income after another. You will have time and money for this.

Life can change. Various circumstances, your principles, outlook on life, etc. may change. The same can happen with your sources of income.

Let's go back to the tanning studio. The first month after the opening, my wife and I worked together in this studio. Then we established a stable flow of clients and calculated that we could very well hire several operators who would work for us.

By hiring two young girls, we began to earn less from this source of income, but we freed up a lot of time, which allowed us to create new sources of income.

Thus, we created a new source of income and built a work scheme in which it was enough for us to stop by once a week for revenue.

Next, I decided to find myself another hired job and combine it with my business. Why did I decide this? Because in that situation I had no other options. Create new business I had no funds. And any other new source of income requires money one way or another.

The fundamental changes that happened to me earlier told me that this would be a temporary option until I saved up money to create another business or increased the profitability of the first one.

By the way, the tanning studio did not bring me much income. Something around 30,000 rubles. I made about the same amount when I worked as an ordinary manager at a telecommunications company.

I am writing this so that you understand another reason for looking for a job. Many people imagine an ideal picture of the future, one where they don’t have to work, where they have enough money to live happily. I'm not an exception. But as you understand, a business income of 30,000 rubles will not allow you to realize this ideal picture of the future.

At the same time, the business I created gave me a great sense of calm and peace. I had a completely different experience when looking for a job. If earlier, when I did not have such powerful financial support in the form of a tanning studio, at times when I was left without work, then pressing circumstances from all sides prompted me to look for any job as soon as possible.

About what circumstances we're talking about?

• Food;
• Paying for a roof over your head;
• Cloth;
• Transport;
• Opinion of others;
• Etc.

When a person does not have money to support himself, he will clutch at any straw. After all, every person has a list of some kind of financial dependencies.

We all eat and drink every day, we need to pay or rent an apartment, we need to somehow get around on business. No less important is the pressure others put on us. After all, when we are not working, we have to get money from somewhere and most often on such days we live off the funds of our relatives, who soon begin to look at us wryly if we cannot find work for a long time.

All this leads to the fact that we are in a dependent position when looking for work. We don’t choose work, but work chooses us.

When do you have some additional source of income that can insure you? difficult situations, then everything changes exactly the opposite. You can calmly search for the job option you need. It is no longer your job that chooses you, but you who choose your job and can dictate your terms to it.

This is what happened to me at that moment. I firmly decided for myself that I did not want to work as an ordinary specialist. I wanted to take a leadership position. I had many reasons for this:

• First, executives get paid more.
• Secondly, managers have greater freedom compared to subordinates. Ordinary employees have to coordinate their every step with their manager. The manager can determine his own work plan. I needed a greater level of freedom in order to control my existing business.
• Thirdly, I needed experience managing people. Since at that time I already had two operators in the tanning studio, I was actually already the manager. Therefore, I wanted to develop my skills and abilities in this area.

As a result, I was hired...at a bank! And not just anyone, but the head of the lending department.

We were selling bank loan products. I had about 6 people subordinate to me.

Thus, the tanning studio brought me about 30,000 rubles + hired work gave me about 45,000 rubles more. At that time I was already married. The wife earned about 25,000 rubles more. In the same year, we took out a mortgage for the apartment, which we began to rent out, which brought us about another 18,000 rubles, but this money can not be counted, since it was used to pay off the loan.

All these sources of income allowed us to save about 30,000 rubles monthly. Well, as you understand, we created new sources of income with them: we bought shares again, invested money in mutual funds, put part of the funds in bank deposits, etc.

As you can see, I started creating multiple sources of income from one, from work for hire, brought them to several sources (about 6-8), then in order to create my own business, read a new source of income, I sold and abandoned all multiple sources, which I had before.

Then I again created one source of income, thanks to which I later increased the number of sources of income to 10.

Based on this, we can draw the following conclusion: there is no need to focus specifically on large quantities sources of income. That's not the goal. We create multiple sources of income just so that we have a positive difference between income and expenses.

It is important that at the end of the month you have extra money left, which can later be used to create additional income, which will allow you to achieve financial independence and freedom.

Conclusion

Most people live paycheck to paycheck. They don't have enough money to live, they're all in . What kind of financial independence can we talk about? Although each of them dreams of not working, living for their own pleasure, traveling, dressing beautifully, in general - not denying themselves anything.

Multiple sources of income will help us with this.

There may be 10 of them, which together will bring you 300,000 rubles monthly, or maybe 1, which will bring you 500,000 rubles monthly.

No need to chase quantity. It's better to chase quality. You can create one source of income, the main thing is that it provides as much profit as possible. It is equally important what kind of income it will be - linear or passive. The priority is passive income, which will free up a lot of time for you. This time can be spent on your favorite things, health, children, hobbies.

When you have extra money, you will still need to put it somewhere. The first option is to spend it all, as most people do. The second option is to invest it in something that will create new money for you.

That is, the model of creating multiple sources of income in the second case is inevitable.

Another purpose of creating multiple streams of income is safety and security. The fact is that when you have one source of income, you take a lot of risk. Once it runs out, your normal life will be in jeopardy.

If you have several sources of income, then you will not be afraid of any crisis. If you are laid off from your main job, you will not starve, as other sources of income will save you.

P.S. I look forward to your multiple sources of income in the comments. If they are not there, then write what you could do in this direction...

They can be received by disabled people, large families or people who have retired due to age.

Bank deposit.

Investing money in a bank as a deposit is not a great passive income, but for the most part allows you to save money.

However, it is still quite possible to receive not an extra 3-10 thousand per month from a large amount.

Sale of securities and mutual funds.

A good option for long-term capital investment with the aim of making a profit.

However, it must be approached very carefully.

Gather all the information about the organization in which you are investing your money.

Income from shares becomes large only after about 7 years have passed since their acquisition.

Own business.

A very good option for receiving passive income, but it requires a lot of effort and time before it starts to generate profit.

Venture investments and profits.

To receive venture capital royalties, you must invest in a newly launched company.

After a few years, you can start receiving a very substantial amount, depending on the amount of the contribution.

Investing money in investment and trust organizations.

Profit is generated through the redistribution of capital.

However, in this case there is a high risk of losing your investment.

Purchase of housing under construction and its sale after construction.

A profitable option if you have the funds to purchase one or more apartments under construction.

You will buy it for 500,000 rubles, and sell it for 1,000,000.

However, most likely, repairs will have to be made, at least cosmetic.

When choosing a developer, you should be extremely careful.

Buy housing only from reliable, well-known developers who have been working in the housing market for several years.

Search for the most best option of the many existing ones - it’s not a matter of one day.

You should carefully consider the steps, evaluate the initial capital and decide what is best suited.

Many people, thinking about how to create passive income, do not want to do anything about it.

However, in the beginning you will have to work hard in order to reap the sweet rewards in the future.

Passive income is such income that does not depend on a person’s regular activities. The simplest example would be a deposit in a bank: it consistently brings interest to its owner. Regardless of the depositor’s age, illness or desire to go to work, interest will be accrued to him.

Active income depends entirely on human actions. To receive it, you need to engage in some kind of activity: produce goods, sell them, provide services, extract minerals and much more.

When expanding the concept of stable passive income, one should not forget about the risks. Using a deposit as an example, we can highlight the following risks for depositors:

• currency depreciation;
• bank bankruptcy;
• force majeure circumstances.

There are also a number of inconveniences: interest is accrued after a certain period of time (for example, once a month), and the invested money cannot be used until the end of the deposit period.

Therefore, before creating a passive source of income, it is necessary to take into account all possible risks of the activity.

Proven Ways to Create Passive Income

Before you create passive income from scratch, it is recommended that you familiarize yourself with existing methods of such passive income. This will help you see all the advantages and disadvantages of the main options for passive sources of income. The article will discuss effective and proven sources of passive income. You can use them as a basis for building your business.

It is necessary to take into account that, having a certain amount of funds, it is somewhat easier to build a source of stable passive income. Without money, you will have to spend money to realize your dreams own time and strength.

Registration of business and delegation of powers

This is the most effective way to earn passive income. It has a minimum of disadvantages if the business is properly organized. To create it you will need the following:

• organization of the enterprise;
• business development;
• reaching a stable level of income;
• selection of a candidate for the position of manager;
• making a profit from minimal costs time to control key documentation and make important decisions.

Of course, there are risks here. Among them, the main one stands out: the responsibility and integrity of the manager. The further success of the company or organization will depend on his daily decisions. To select a suitable candidate, they most often resort to proven personnel who have worked at the enterprise for a long time.

It's not easy to create and grow a business. This requires a lot of time, money and skills. However, there are many situations when a skillfully chosen niche for running a business allows you to quickly develop it.

What you need to start your own business:

• business plan;
• starting capital (in most cases);
• official registration;
• rental of premises;
• hiring employees (if required).

Any enterprise carries risks for the entrepreneur. No one can be sure that the activity will generally generate income and not losses. Therefore, you need to weigh everything correctly before creating your own business. If everything is done correctly, the entrepreneur will have success and the opportunity to receive passive income.

Selling your intellectual property

This activity option is suitable for those who have knowledge and skills in certain sciences or specialties. How to create passive income from scratch, having the opportunity to create popular information products? They need to be implemented.

What can be considered intellectual property:

• artistic, literary and scientific works;
• created unique industrial designs;
• developed software;
• invented objects or technologies in all sectors of life.

As can be seen from the list, intellectual property can be in any field of human activity. Passive income can come from either a written book or a unique invention that helps increase equipment productivity, for example. In order for property to be individual, it must be documented. For this purpose, patents are issued and copyrights are assigned. By owning them you can make a profit from the sale of your goods/services.

The simplest example for considering the option of making a profit would be a written book. The author of the book will sell copies of the books himself or by entering into an agreement with a publishing company. The owner of the rights will receive a profit from each book sold. If it is in demand, it brings profit. If it is in demand for a long time, it brings profit for a long time.

This doesn't just apply to books. Increasingly, they are resorting to creating various programs on PC or mobile devices. One completed project can generate passive income until another, cheaper or more useful one comes on the market.

Accordingly, to create such a source of income, a person needs:

• come up with/create something unique and in demand for society;
• confirm your rights to the invention;
• realize the product of your activities.

Disadvantages: it takes a lot of work to create unique works/techniques/technologies; the property may be unclaimed and will not bring significant profit.

Building your own retail network

Such a network can provide its owner with constant passive income. All actions will be performed by network participants, and its creator will receive ever-increasing profits. To do this you need the following:

• create your own unique products (services are provided less often);
• formalize a production and sales enterprise or cooperate with a manufacturer;
• to interest those wishing to become members of the network;
• sell them to other network participants;
• form the price of the product in such a way that part of the profit goes to the owner of the network, and part to the seller of the product.

Anyone who wants to make money in such a network must sell these goods. The more he sells, the more he earns. The main key to success is high-quality and in-demand products at competitive prices. This could be anything from cosmetics to food, medical goods or unique services.

The main difference from most network marketing companies should be the following:

• providing guarantees to all network participants;
• using only safe products;
• availability of contacts for communication with management and all comprehensive information about the activities of the organization.

These factors will increase sales and employee engagement.

Hello, dear readers. In this article I will try to cover the topic of passive income in as much detail as possible.

More recently, a person’s interest in money and ways to increase their capital was considered, if not shameful, then certainly not worthy of approval. There was an opinion in society that it was possible only at work, and there was a very wary attitude towards all other sources of income.

Of course, then there were good reasons to think so: many people “burned out” on seemingly guaranteed and quick methods grow rich. However, fortunately, today different times have come: there are many opportunities, using which you can, although not, seriously improve your material well-being.

What first comes to a person’s mind when he has a desire (or need) to have more money? That's right - extra work. This decision has its advantages (earnings will definitely increase, plus there will be no censure from society). However, the disadvantages that this method has in abundance (lack of time, effort, qualifications, experience and much more) often put an end to finding additional work.

What remains to be done in such a situation? Fortunately, modern world provides an opportunity without literally doing anything for it. The name of this wonderful method (or, more precisely, a whole group of methods) is passive income.

What is it? “Passive income” refers to the kind of income that a person has, one might say, unconditionally - he does not need to work or carry out any actions to get it, he has it on his own.

Today, many residents of our country have passive income in one way or another, and they themselves often do not realize it. Its amounts may differ: someone has only a few hundred rubles a month, while someone else’s passive income amounts to hundreds of thousands. The amount of cash receipts is influenced by many factors, which will be discussed later in the article.

The opportunities that passive income provides are usually underestimated. Even those who have heard about this method of generating income believe that they will not be able to earn any significant amount - which means there is no reason to bother. In reality, this is, of course, not the case: as I said above, some people receive hundreds of thousands of rubles every month without doing practically anything.

Who can really benefit from passive income ideas?

Look at the list below: if you consider yourself to be at least one of these categories of people, then earning money for which you don’t have to constantly work will definitely not hurt you.

1. You don’t want to constantly work for the state or “the other guy,” but rather, sooner or later, you want to put your own ideas into practice.
2. You want to retire and go discover the world, but you realize that there is no pension provision It's definitely not enough for this.
3. You consider the future well-being of your family to be one of the main guidelines in life and are ready to take real steps in this direction now.

Of course, it’s good to talk at length about passive income, but how can you start getting it? What needs to be done for this and in what direction to work? This is what we will talk about today.

1. What is the difference between poor and rich people?

Before I begin my review of popular ways to generate passive income, I want to ask you a question: what, in your opinion, is the difference between the poor and the poor?

Did you manage? Remember your answer and keep it with you - it is not at all necessary to announce it, but it will be useful in the future.

My opinion completely coincides with the views of Robert Kiyosaki, a famous American businessman and investment specialist. So, Kiyosaki believes that the rich and the poor differ from each other primarily in their attitude towards money. What is he talking about? Let's take a closer look.

Imagine two friends. One works in a good place and is an excellent specialist in his field, which allows him to receive very good wages. The second one does not have an excellent education, which is why it is quite difficult for him to get a good job, and the current one does not pay very much - almost 2 times less than a friend.

Which one is richer? It would seem that the answer is obvious - but do not rush to conclusions...

Now let's see what expenses both friends have.

The first (an excellent specialist with a high salary) regularly eats in not the worst restaurants - lack of time, laziness to cook and other reasons do not allow him to make his own food. In addition, he almost always gets home from work by taxi - he doesn’t have his own car (because he didn’t bother to get a license), and his “status” doesn’t allow him to use public transport.

Also, the first friend regularly (sometimes several times a month) goes shopping for clothes, and not the cheapest ones. Why does he need this? The fact is that a person does not know how (and does not want) to restore wardrobe items - even if there is a very small stain that cannot be washed in a washing machine (but can be easily removed by dry cleaning), he throws the item in the trash and goes to buy a new one.

Okay, but what about the second friend who earns much less? Going to restaurants is a luxury for him: he visits such establishments once every few months (and even then he never eats enough, but takes very little), and he travels to work and back by bus. As for things, he not only takes them to the dry cleaner, but also tries to restore them as much as possible - sew up holes (and completely unnoticeably), reshape them, give clothes a new purpose (for example, turning old jeans into shorts).

But why am I doing this? What do food, transportation, clothing, and other expenses have to do with wealth? The answer will probably seem incorrect to many of you now, but it is very simple - the most immediate.

Why is this so? Please note: although the first friend has a very large salary, he constantly spends it on restaurants, taxis and clothes - if you use this regularly, and not on holidays, even a very thick wallet may not be enough (which is what happens with the first friend, forced sometimes even to borrow from the second).

On the contrary, a friend who handles his money very carefully (spends it only when there is a real need for it) never experiences material need - the difference between his income and expenses is always positive.

That is why the first friend does not have any savings, and his friend, earning almost 2 times less, regularly (from each salary) puts aside some money for his deposit. Over the course of several years, a decent amount of money has accumulated there, which can be spent, for example, on a car, several trips to other countries, or on education.

I hope that after such a clear example, Robert Kiyosaki’s point of view (and mine too) has become completely clear to you - First of all, those people who spend less than they earn become rich. Such people know how to limit themselves in unnecessary expenses, understanding that strategic benefit is much more important than momentary satisfaction.

In conclusion, let's outline the main points where the difference between poor and rich people is most obvious.

1. Attitude to wealth and money. If for “poor” people (primarily not in terms of wealth, but in their way of thinking) money is a goal, then for “rich” people it is a means (they provide an opportunity to satisfy the need for a secure future, knowledge, and skills).
2. Attachments. The “poor” and the “rich” manage their earned funds differently: if the former spend it very quickly and make almost no investments, the latter will definitely save the money and invest it in sources that will eventually begin to make a profit.

We have figured out how “rich” and “poor” people differ from each other - I think that after reading this section many people have something to think about. Well, we move on to considering the sources and types of passive income.

2. How can you earn money passively?

To start generating income that will always be there - regardless of whether you work or not - you need to find out what types exist and which of them are most acceptable to you.

Sources of passive income can be of four types, and each of them is worthy of a separate story.

Type 1. Intellectual property

I’ll start, perhaps, with objects that are created as a result of intellectual work - literary sources, musical works, programs for various events and the like. In addition, this includes inventive ideas - they can be patented and have income from implementation.

How is passive income generated for intellectual property? The creator of any object described above acquires ownership and authorship rights to it. If the right of authorship is inalienable, then the first right can be sold and receive income from it.

The realization of property rights, as a rule, does not occur immediately, but over certain periods of time. This allows idea creators receive passive income not once or twice, but constantly – because this is what we strive for

Despite the fact that royalties today can be very large, this method of earning money is available to very few - primarily because it is extremely difficult to invent and promote something unique and original today. Nevertheless, let's remember this method and move on to consider others.

Type 2. Investments

Investments are investments of funds with the goal of subsequently receiving a profit greater than the size of the investment.

In the minds of most people, investing seems like something very distant, accessible only to very rich people. In fact, investing is available to everyone who has at least a little free money - they can also make a profit.

Where can you invest money? There are many places:

• bonds and shares of companies, states
• Mutual investment funds (mutual investment funds)
• PAMM accounts
• real estate objects
• bank deposits
• business.

All these opportunities have different returns and different risks, so before choosing, you need to decide what is more important - the amount of profit or the guarantee of capital safety.

Type 3. Marketing

Marketing – promotion to markets specific product and profit from such activities.

Previously, manufacturing companies around the world were faced with the question: how to start producing more and of better quality? Today, with some exceptions, such a question does not arise, but another problem has come to the fore - where and how to sell the goods? Marketing helps a lot in such a difficult task, and you can make good money from it.

Network marketing is available to every person today. To start earning money in this way, you need very little: a small starting capital (in some cases you can do without it) and the ability to sell a product. The bottom line is this: You take (or buy) products from a company and sell them to consumers. The difference in purchase and final prices is your profit.

“Okay,” you ask, “but what does passive income have to do with it?” Indeed, at first glance it seems that in network marketing you constantly need to go around and offer a product in order to be purchased. However, in reality you can do without it.

For example, Internet sites help a lot in network marketing. If you invest once in the creation and promotion of your own web resource that will advertise your product, then in the near future you will not have to do anything to sell your products - customers will come to you themselves.

Type 4. Receipts from the state

Some people, having far from the highest salary and many expenses, nevertheless live quite well. How do they do this? Perhaps it's a matter of legal literacy.

The laws of our state allow us to receive a variety of payments from the budget. Of course, to do this you need to meet certain conditions, but they are not as complicated as they seem, and there are many more possibilities.

I will list only the main ways to obtain funding from the state, which can be available to everyone:

• pensions
• subsidies for utility bills
• subsidies for business development (especially for small businesses)
• "Maternal capital"
• subsidies for improving living conditions (“expansion”, certificates for land, houses, apartments).

To summarize this section, I would like to say that you should not limit yourself to just one type of sources. Ways to earn passive income are very diverse, and you can always work in several directions at the same time - this way your income will be much greater.

3. TOP 7 Ideas for creating passive income

We have looked at the main areas in which you need to work to make passive income.

It's time to move on to specific ideas suitable for implementation - thousands of people have already used them and today have stable cash flows practically without your participation.

Idea No. 1. Own website

The Internet is an inexhaustible source of everything: information, clients, sales, goods... You can’t list it all. The coverage of the World Wide Web is so global that even despite the truly enormous number of web resources, there is still plenty of space for new sites. That is why Internet sites are at the top of the list of methods for generating passive income.

What will it take to become a webmaster (site owner) and start receiving money? You need:

• knowledge of marketing (not at the level of an institute graduate, the basic principles, principles and skills are sufficient)
• PC proficiency (some special programs will be required)
• free time
• focus on results.

If you have everything from this list, congratulations: passive income on the Internet is an opportunity for you.

In our age of standard standardized things, any unique product that has properties that distinguish it from other products gains success - its inventor rapidly popularizes his name, and copies are sold in very large quantities. If you have an inventive or creative streak, you can try to write a book, create a canvas or other work of art, or develop a breakthrough technology.

The use of such ideas by others, as I said above, can bring long-term profits. It will come from licensing fees for the use of the product, the development of new solutions based on it, and many other things. Using your intellect to invent something new sometimes allows you to create a source of passive income from scratch: with only paper and pen (in modern conditions, a computer), a writer can create a masterpiece that will be read by the entire planet.

But what to do if you can’t invent a breakthrough technology or write a picture that will be appreciated by critics? Is it really not possible to generate passive income in this way?

Fortunately, it's not all bad. Today, even seemingly ordinary things, but presented in a new way, often have wild success. A striking example– traditional crafts: masters of knitting, sewing, pottery, weaving, jewelry make money not only from goods, but also from teaching others their craft.

I can advise lovers of modern technology and active computer users to turn their attention to the Internet. Even one telling about a person’s life, if presented correctly, can “blow up” the Internet and become mega-popular. In addition, you can write computer software - games, programs and useful utilities that help make modern technologies more useful, understandable and accessible to excellent users.

Create creative product easier than you think. Explore your abilities, talents and skills - you will probably find something unique that you can apply and turn into money. If you do your business with soul and are able to establish a dialogue with people, then have no doubt that your creative product will be a success.

Idea No. 3. Property for rent

Surely you have property that seems to be necessary, but at the same time is not used very often (or is not used at all). If there is no desire to sell it, then you can rent it out and receive income from it.

What exactly is popular in rental markets? You can donate anything:

• apartments
• cars
• equipment for repair, construction
• cloth
• furniture
• decorations
• much more.

The obvious option for most is only an apartment - they are usually rented anyway by everyone who owns two (or more) apartments or has, for example, both a house and an apartment. The remaining objects, as a rule, hang as “dead weight”, cluttering up the space and not providing any profit.

For example, after the repair you still have the equipment that you bought for it: a jigsaw, a hammer drill or something else. It is, of course, a pity to throw away such things, there is no need to use them, and if they agree to buy them, it is much cheaper than the price in the store. In this case, renting is an ideal option: as a rule, such equipment is needed only for the duration of repairs, and people are not ready to buy it for good, but borrowing it for a while is another matter. For 2-3 rentals you can get the same amount as other enterprising people offered to buy an instrument for.

Making the service popular in this case is quite simple: just advertise on some regional website for repair issues. If you don’t want to spend money, you can leave messages on thematic forums: they are visited entirely by representatives of the target audience, which means the conversion will be very high.

Of course, this type of income cannot be called completely passive: you need to communicate with clients, check the performance of rental objects. However, it is this idea that best meets the needs of those who are looking for passive income on the Internet without investment. Judge for yourself: you don’t need to purchase equipment (you already have it), you can make advertising completely free of charge (links on forums or the same Avito), you can meet clients at home or in any other convenient place.

Idea No. 4. State payments

Speaking about the ideas of passive income, I mentioned that many residents of the Russian Federation have the right to receive money from the state, but do not use it. In this section I want to talk about this opportunity in more detail and give specific examples.

Who can apply for budget payments? There are several main categories here:

• pensioners
• disabled people
• families in difficult life situations
• families with many children
• entrepreneurs who have opened their own business.

In fact, you can receive payments even when you do not belong to any of the categories listed above (however, this will be very difficult to do, even if you meet the conditions specified in the Civil Code).

Let's move on to a review of specific types of government support.

Method 1. Childbirth benefits

The state actively stimulates the birth rate, and today families with small children can receive several payments at once:

• “maternity capital” is quite large in size (453 thousand rubles in 2017, while regional authorities can pay extra at their discretion), however, it is issued only when there are at least two children in the family, and it can be spent in a limited number of ways
• child benefits (paid to the mother for the entire time she is on maternity leave).

Of course, the size of those “children’s” ones that exist today cannot please anyone, but in the absence of more, one must be content with what is there. Even small amounts of money coming in regularly and without any effort can help improve your financial condition.

Method 2. Subsidies for business development

The state is interested in development - this provides new jobs, tax revenues, and in the future also stabilization of the situation in the country. To this end, authorities provide financial assistance to entrepreneurs who have a business idea and a clear understanding of how to organize its implementation.

A subsidy for business development is issued free of charge and free of charge - unlike a loan, it does not need to be repaid. Another plus is that absolutely any entrepreneur can apply for such financing.

Of course, the state is interested in giving money for the implementation of only really promising ideas. Because of this, potential businessmen, in order to get money (and without the help of the state it is sometimes unrealistic to open a business), provide many documents detailing the project, profits and payback periods. The papers are reviewed by authorized structures, after which a decision is made (it can be either positive or negative).

Having received the money, the businessman must immediately put it to work, and then report the costs to the institution that issued the money. This point should be taken as seriously as possible: if the report does not satisfy the inspectors, they will demand the money back.

Government payments are an excellent opportunity to earn passive income with virtually no effort. Of course, it will not be permanent in the full sense of the word (with rare exceptions), but this possibility should definitely not be ignored.

Idea No. 5. Financial investments

Let's move on to studying probably the most serious method of generating passive income Money– financial investments.

Why do I say this? Any investor planning to play in the financial market must have at least the following:

• endurance, patience, desire to improve and learn new things
• initial capital.

If, as a rule, no problems arise with the first, then with initial capital there are often difficulties. However, it is not worth abandoning this method if you do not have a significant amount of money: a small capital will simply bring less profit.

Where to invest to start earning passive income? There are several investment strategies that differ from each other in costs, payback periods and risks. But first things first.

Method 1. Purchasing real estate

If you have a fairly large sum on hand (several million rubles), then you can invest in real estate: an apartment, a house, industrial space.

This type of investment can begin to generate income immediately: when renting out the property, tenants will pay a certain amount monthly. If the value of the property has increased compared to the initial value, and buyers have also appeared, then you can sell the property: in this case, you will have not only the money paid for rent, but also the difference between the purchase and sale costs.

This method of investing is suitable for those who have significant capital and at the same time are not at all prone to financial risk. Real estate will always remain in value, and price fluctuations for it are not as significant as for “smaller” properties.

However, I would like to draw your attention to the fact that real estate will require costs even after its acquisition: the apartment (house, industrial space) must be maintained, utility bills must be paid, and so on. If you do not have a clear understanding of who will rent the property, and the prospects for increasing its value are very vague, it is better not to use this method of investment.

Method 2. Using financial instruments

Securities, Forex markets and other opportunities to make money on price movements are a great way to make money.

What advantages does this method have?

First of all, there is no need for large start-up capital. Having several thousand rubles in your pocket (or money), you can safely register on Forex and start investing. In addition, here you can very quickly increase your capital several times - stories about people who literally increased their savings by 3-4 times in just a week are by no means a fantasy.

Of course, such advantages cannot come without disadvantages. In principle, there is only one drawback, but it is quite significant: very high risks. Of course, their size depends on the investment strategy (you can not take risks at all - do not use financial instruments, but in this case you can’t count on profit. If you want, like those people from success stories, to grow several times weekly, then I hasten to disappoint – success, even if it exists, is guaranteed to dry up almost immediately.

This is why an investor in Forex and other financial markets, for example, must choose the right balance between profitability and risks. To do this, you need to be able to calculate the risks, you will also need the ability to control yourself and be calm in any situation.

Idea No. 6. Network marketing

I already spoke about network marketing above, but now I want to dwell on this idea for passive income in more detail.

Sales of goods famous brands– the process is truly global: today it is carried out by people who have nothing to do with the company itself. This happens both because of the oversaturation of the market and because of the increase in the number of proactive, purposeful, active people who know how to sell a product to even the most intractable client.

Anyone can start making money from network marketing – including you. To do this, you need to meet all the conditions that I mentioned above, as well as have a good understanding of the manufacturer’s product range and be ready to always meet the buyer halfway.

Now - about what you need to know about network marketing and what methods of earning money there are.

The pinnacle of the dreams of many people is to create a business so that it brings a stable and large income, and without the slightest intervention.

This, of course, is a laudable aspiration, but we must remember that a businessman can only become successful if he can understand whether the chosen direction is promising, convince investors (if he does not have his own savings) of future profits and implement the project as it should be. was intended.

Often a potentially very profitable idea “stalls” only because the author himself does not have the money to implement it, and investors are not inclined to give their funds. In this case, an online business can help - it requires significantly less investment, and in the future it gives almost the same results.

What business opportunities exist on the Internet? There are quite a lot of them:

1. . Even if you don’t have anything that could be sold, it doesn’t matter - goods can be purchased and sold at a higher price. The Internet makes it possible not to spend money on promotion and renting space: promotion on the Internet can be practically free, and you can distribute goods right at home.
2. Provision of services. Strictly speaking, this refers to the promotion of services that are provided offline: legal, medical and other consultations, as well as other types of services. If you have the appropriate education and experience, but are experiencing problems with promotion, then the Internet is your best friend and an assistant: with its help you can convey information about the service to the consumer, organize a recording and collect feedback.
3. Information business. Knowledge is capital that will always be valuable. If you have unique information about something interesting and important and want to tell people about it, then you can create your own website (or advertise on forums and other resources) and look for clients through it.
4. Distribution of information. To make money this way, first of all you need to create a popular (with a large number of subscribers) page or website. Once this is done, you can contact the owners large companies, whose field of activity corresponds to the topic of the page or resource. It is quite possible that they will agree to send information about themselves through your projects, and you will earn income from this.

As you can see, it can be carried out in many directions, and the main thing is to choose exactly the vector that best suits your ideals, values, aspirations and capabilities.

4. Earn passively via the Internet: working methods

You can and should make money online. The types of passive income are vast and varied, and today, probably, anyone who has a connection to the World Wide Web can take advantage of at least one of them.

Before you start generating income via the Internet, I recommend answering yourself the question: what do you want to get? Do you want to earn a small amount quickly and without much effort, or are you ready to invest time, effort and money to ensure a stable cash flow?

If you chose the first option, then I can recommend, for example, making money on social networks or. You can do this on any social network, the work is completely easy, however, it cannot be called passive income - you will have to “scribble” every day.

If you chose the second option, then there are much more ways to earn money via the Internet that will generate (over time) income without your participation. In this article I will look at 7 main methods, but there are actually other possibilities. So, let's go.

Method 1. Implement advertising on your website

Every year thousands of new companies emerge and face the need to sell their products and services. For the world to know about them, they need to “promote” - advertise to everyone possible ways. One of the most effective places for promotion - the Internet: the audience is multimillion-dollar, and the costs are often lower than when advertising using more traditional methods.

What am I talking about? And to the fact that every webmaster (creator and owner of an Internet resource) can earn income from advertisers. This method will be the first in this section.

No. 1. Contextual

Contextual advertising is showing the user information that either corresponds to the topic of the page or what he was looking for on the Internet earlier. This is a great way to generate income even when the site is in its early stages of development. Using this monetization method, a webmaster needs to do a minimum of things:

• think about where on the site the blocks with contextual advertising will be placed (if there are mistakes, don’t worry - the location can always be changed)
• register in programs for placing contextual advertising (Google AdSense, Yandex.Direct).

The services will do the rest (searching for clients, placing advertisements) for you.

How is such advertising monetized? Yandex.Direct, Google AdSense and other similar services at a certain frequency (usually once a month) transfer the webmaster’s income to a special account, consisting of total number“clicks” on the ad. The more clicks on the link are made, the greater the amount the owner of the Internet site will have.

No. 2. Selling links

The owners of other projects on the Internet are in dire need of visitors - the more of them, the more successful the site. They can also be promoted through special resources involved in “trading” links.

What is the essence of such projects? They act as intermediaries between those who want to “buy” a link (pay for a link to the desired site to be on a well-known and popular resource), and between those who want to “sell” the link (place it in an article on their website) .

If your project is well promoted (it has at least 5 thousand visitors daily, although each link exchange has its own requirements), you can try to “sell” links. To do this you need to start account on the stock exchange and submit your offer to potential buyers.

• “eternal” - sold immediately for the entire life of the site
• rental - placed for a certain period, while payment “drips” at a certain frequency.

The income from this method of earning is unpredictable - it can vary greatly depending on the theme of the site, its age, traffic and even the time of year. At the stage of project formation, you definitely shouldn’t resort to it: there is a great danger of being “banned” from search engines, and then the site can be closed. You need to wait at least six months, and only then register for projects to implement links.

No. 3. Selling banners

How it works? The principle of operation is similar to contextual advertising: the webmaster also needs to provide a place for the advertising block (it must be visible, but not interfere with the perception of information) and place advertisements from employers on it.

What is the difference? There is no intermediary in the form of Google AdSense or Yandex.Direct - contact occurs directly between the advertiser and the webmaster. Due to this, the site owner’s profit increases, but the number of clients, as a rule, decreases - most of them immediately turn to Google or Yandex, without working directly with the project owners.

To sell banner advertising, the website must have comprehensive information about the terms of cooperation - terms of placement, cost, and other provisions. It is best to allocate a separate page on the resource for this so that all the information is in one place.

To summarize, I can give webmasters who are planning to earn income from advertising a couple of tips:

• you need to have good knowledge in SEO optimization of resources and learn how to interact with advertisers (this will come with experience)
• the site should be made primarily for people, and not for monetization - uninteresting web projects are never considered by advertisers, and Google AdSense and Yandex.Direct are increasingly “learning” to ignore such resources.

Method 2. Affiliate programs

What's happened ? This is a way for sellers to attract customers. It consists of the following: a company that has a product attracts other people to distribute it, promising some income from each sale.

Today, almost all major sellers of goods and services have affiliate programs - in this way they save not only time, but also money, and other people get the opportunity to make good money.

Finding is easier than it seems - there are many ways to do it:

• place a banner on your own website (if you have one)
• create a group on a social network, distribute the link among its members
• purchasing an article in which a link is “embedded” on a third-party resource
• posting a video on the Internet indicating a referral link (you can show it in the video itself and place it in the description).

When participating in an “affiliate” program, you definitely need to find out how reliable its organizer is. There are many known cases where promising and promising projects in fact turned out to be an ordinary “scam”. It is worth paying attention to both the reviews of friends and acquaintances (if they have previously participated in the program) and the opinions on specialized Internet resources.

Method 3. Investing

To make a good profit, sooner or later you will need money - if there is no starting capital at all, then large amounts there is no need to count.

As soon as you have at least a few tens of thousands of rubles available for investment, you can start investing. This method of generating passive income, as I said above, is potentially the most profitable, but also the most risky.

What to do to reduce the risk of losing funds to a minimum? A great way is to diversify your investment portfolio. The word is quite complex, but in practice everything is quite simple: it means the distribution of funds between various instruments.

For example, a fairly popular portfolio in the investment environment looks like this: 40% of all funds are allocated to bank deposits ( minimal risks, low profit), 40% - in PAMM accounts (the risks are more significant, but the profit is greater), 20% - in other projects.

In addition, funds can also be distributed within each instrument (for example, making not one but several bank deposits, making several instead of just one).

The portfolio described above is the optimal combination of risks and returns: it provides an almost 100% guarantee of the safety of funds (if not all, then at least part of them), while providing significant profits.

PAMM accounts, mutual funds... Surely an unprepared reader has a question: “What is this anyway?” We will now talk about what investment instruments there are and what features they have.

Method 4. Bank deposits

A bank deposit (or deposit) is an understandable and virtually risk-free way to generate passive income. It is implemented as follows: you open a deposit in a bank, deposit a certain amount into a special account, and after a predetermined period of time, income equal to a certain percentage of the amount is credited to the account.

How much can you earn with a bank deposit? No - today rates in large and well-known banks (and, perhaps, it is not worth opening deposits in others) are at around 7-8% per annum - that is, approximately at the same level as inflation. This means that today deposits help not to increase savings, but to preserve them.

However, where there is less income, there are less risks. Of course, cases of bank bankruptcy today are not so rare, but almost all financial institutions are participants in the deposit insurance system (DIS). If the bank does not have the funds to pay depositors, then another financial institution appointed by the DIA (Deposit Insurance Agency) will do this for it. It is worth noting that only savings of up to 1.4 million rubles are eligible for the program.

Do you need a bank deposit in your investment portfolio or can you bypass it? Despite the very small profit, the answer is clear - it is necessary. The deposit acts as a financial “safety cushion” - even if all other funds are lost, the money placed in the bank will make it possible not to go bankrupt.

Method 5. Mutual funds

(or mutual fund) is a complex in which there are two types of participants: shareholders (people who invest money) and managers (people who manage money for profit; often part of the same organization).

In a simplified form, the process of functioning of a mutual fund can be described as follows: an investor buys a certain number of shares (securities) and becomes a participant in the fund. The money that was contributed to the purchase of shares is used by managers in financial transactions to make a profit. If income has been received, it is distributed among shareholders according to the principle “the more securities, the greater the profit.”

About 10-12 years ago, mutual funds were a very popular investment method - the return/risk ratio was quite high. Today, the situation has changed quite dramatically, and many fraudulent structures have also arisen, and therefore mutual funds today are, as a rule, not considered by advanced investors.

Method 6. PAMM accounts

A PAMM account is an investment method similar to a mutual fund.

The functioning mechanism is as follows: a group of investors gathers who do not want to trade Forex on their own, but have capital. Next, the players create a common account and search for a successful specialist who can manage this account. Once an agreement is reached between the trader and investors, the specialist begins trading Forex with the goal of making a profit.

How much can you earn on PAMM accounts? Depends on the type of trader (you can work with people who adhere completely different strategies), and from his remuneration (usually 20-30% of the profit, but sometimes more).

For a person who is ready to invest money and receive income from it, PAMM accounts are interesting for the following:

• You can “enter” the market even with a small capital (from $10)
• you can choose a trader yourself, having complete information about the strategy of his actions and successes in previous periods
• transactions with money (crediting to the account, payments from the account) are carried out quickly (within 1-2 business days).

Of course, PAMM accounts also have disadvantages. The first (and most important) - real opportunity loss of all funds. Often, even very successful traders show unsatisfactory results in certain periods of time, and for many investors this is enough to be left without money.

The second is the inability to control the actions of the manager. A specialist works according to his own rules, and it is almost always impossible to prevent him from investing in a particular asset (which may be unpromising).

A PAMM account, despite its shortcomings, is a good way to seriously increase your capital. It’s not worth allocating a large percentage of your savings to it, but there’s definitely a reason to include it in your investment portfolio.

Method 7. Venture investment

Venture investments (or, as they are also called today, “startups”). Such undertakings differ from others in that they necessarily carry some kind of novelty.

As a rule, a person bursting with ideas does not have the money to fully bring to mind at least one of them. Because of this, he has to cooperate with people who are willing to give money for the development of the initiative. Of course, not for nothing: if the implementation is successful, the investor who invested his money will receive a certain percentage of the income.

You too can become such a person. This is quite simple to do: there are many “startup” exchanges on the Internet, which you can freely go to, register and study the proposed projects. The opportunity to communicate with the authors is provided - first-hand information will help you make the right choice.

What should you keep in mind when making venture investments? There are two main points:

1. There are a lot of ideas, and it’s impossible to invest in everything. However, it’s also not worth investing everything in one “startup”. The best option– “golden mean”: it is worth choosing several projects (3-4) and distributing funds between them depending on the expected development of each.
2. You will have to control how the project is progressing on your own - there are no managers. During supervision, it is imperative to compare the pace of development of the selected “startups” with each other and, if necessary, redistribute capital.

Method 8. Precious metals, currency

When choosing an investment method, anyone will look at the popular and known methods– currency and precious metals. Well, let's talk about them too.

Precious metals listed on various exchanges are gold, silver, platinum and palladium. They have long been a means of storing savings (and at the earliest stages of human history they even replaced money).

Despite the widespread belief that investing in precious metals is profitable, such savings do not bring large incomes. Moreover, they are unprofitable: at the beginning of 2016, a gram of gold cost more than 3,000 rubles, and today it barely reaches the mark of 2,400 rubles. The situation with platinum is the same: if at the beginning of 2015 it cost 2700-2800 rubles per gram, then today it is a thousand cheaper.

As for currencies, today too much volatility prevents us from considering them as a savings instrument: the exchange rate “jumps” back and forth, and it is almost impossible to predict where it will move in the near future and by how much it will change. In the situation with the ruble, oil has a big influence: where is it sent? black gold”, and the Russian currency is there too.

To get some income from savings in precious metals or currencies, you need to constantly monitor changes and sell/buy assets. Such activity sooner or later turns into trading, and we are talking about passive income.

The same situation applies to bonds, stocks and futures that can be purchased online. The profitability is far from the highest, and the risks are high, so I recommend taking a closer look at other investment methods.

Method 9. Internet projects

Finally, the last type of investing via the Internet is investing money in projects on the Internet.

This name, as you might guess, refers to the most ordinary sites. I have already talked about how they make a profit in this article, so I will not repeat myself.

What is definitely worth mentioning is the payback period for investments. Depending on the topic of the resource, its traffic and the price requested by the webmaster, it takes from one to two years to return the funds. The period, of course, is rather long, but the return is significant: after this period, the project will generate significant income, which will almost entirely be net profit.

Of course, if you have absolutely no knowledge about websites and how they need to be administered, use this method not recommended - the project should not stand still, and if there are no changes in it, sooner or later everything will stall. However, even if the information is minimal, everything will come with experience, because the main thing is the desire not to stand still and improve in a new area.

Method 10. Passive income through social networks, YouTube

In search of an answer to the question " how to create passive income? many come to social networks and video hosting sites. This step, in general, is completely reasonable - you can really make money here.

Where can I get them? To increase the number of followers, you can use the following methods:

• advertise in other thematic public pages - people will find out that you have a page and start reading it
• hold competitions - investments in prizes (often literally a few hundred rubles) pay off many times over (“everyone loves a freebie,” even if it’s a small one)
• “increase” subscribers (there are specialized services that significantly increase the number of subscribers for a reasonable fee).
• negotiate with the owners of other “publics” - it is quite possible that they will agree to exchange advertising (you will post information about your partner’s page on your resource, which, in turn, will give its subscribers information about your project).

However, I don’t plan to abuse the method of “cheating” subscribers - often the pages are “fake”, and potential advertisers (those who will bring you money) will not be interested in them.

YouTube and are promising areas for generating passive income, because the number of users is only increasing from year to year. If you manage to create a product that is interesting to other people (and not only information is important here - its presentation, speed, importance and the like are important), then profit (mostly passive) will not be long in coming.

Method 11. Newsletter

If you have already become well established and are looking for additional sources of money, then you can turn your attention to sending out information.

U good project There are always enough readers and subscribers who don’t want to miss a single update (an interesting photo, article, news or something else). It would be a sin not to give them this opportunity by sending out interesting new materials, for example, by email or to a social network account.

How is income generated here? In addition to the actual information that is interesting to the reader, you can add advertising, referral links, and anything else that advertisers are willing to pay for in your messages. Since messages are almost always read, additional information will not go unnoticed, which means such advertising will be expensive.

5. Financial independence – what is it and how to achieve it?

In conclusion, I want to talk about one issue that may not entirely correspond to the topic of the article, but that does not make it any less important. We will talk about financial independence.

What is financial independence? Personally, by this I mean complete material freedom - a person does not depend on work, he has such passive income that makes it possible to live with dignity without “active” income.

Is this real or not? Opinions are very different: someone believes that financial independence is quite achievable, and is trying to work in this direction. Some people think that such a concept is by definition utopian, which means it’s not worth even trying to do something.

Who is right? It is impossible to give a definite answer to this question. However, this does not mean that passive income is a pipe dream: as you have probably already seen, it is quite possible to achieve it if you try.

Remember at the very beginning of the article we discussed how “rich” and “poor” people differ from each other? This section is a kind of logical continuation of this topic. I want to give you some advice, following which may not lead to financial independence in the full sense of the word, but will definitely help you find the right path.

It may sound pretentious, but it’s true - a person who has no goals will never achieve anything. On the contrary, those who have goals will sooner or later achieve results.

Goals must be specific and realistic - otherwise it is unclear what needs to be achieved, and it is also unrealistic to achieve. In addition, the goal must be really important: otherwise there will be no motivation to achieve it.

Once the goal is achieved, you need to set new guidelines. Life is a movement, and one success (even a grandiose one) without development will never have any great meaning. It is better to move in small steps, but constantly, than to achieve a lot once and then stop completely.

Material values ​​are, of course, good, but what can they give later? In contrast, investments in self-development will definitely pay off - maybe not in a material way, but in some other way.

Today, it is not difficult to obtain useful information: the Internet opens up truly limitless possibilities in this area. You can, without leaving your home, listen to lectures by the most famous motivators, businessmen, investors and gain knowledge on your own.

There is no point in refusing this, citing lack of time, age or something else. Time, if there is a desire, can always be allocated, but the Russian people once brilliantly said about age: “Live forever, learn forever.”

The fundamental principle of a “rich” person is that his income is greater than his expenses.

Often people have absolutely no idea where they spend their seemingly large salaries and savings. Meanwhile, putting this matter under control couldn’t be easier: all you need is a pen and a notebook where all income and expenses will be recorded. If you are an active user modern technology, then you can use office applications (Excel or something similar).

This simple step will allow you to quickly determine which costs you can definitely avoid and how much money you will have as a result. Excel tables (if you keep records on a computer) will also allow you to make a forecast of how much money you will have left if you live in proper saving mode for several months, a year or several years.

If expenses are still greater than income, it’s worth working in a different direction - perhaps it’s worth finding a new one (or extra work), and also look for other sources of active income. Without them, in the first stages there is nowhere: passive income without active (at first) is impossible, since start-up capital is required almost everywhere.

I told you where you can make investments - now all that remains is to apply the acquired knowledge in practice.

If you do not have large enough capital, and its loss would be fatal, I recommend starting only with bank deposits. The risks here are minimal, and during the time the deposit expires, you will save up more money and be able to move on to other types of filling your investment portfolio.

As capital increases, the portfolio needs to be diversified - start using as many instruments as possible. At the same time, you don’t need to do this at random: before choosing one or another method, you should study it in detail and only then decide whether it’s worth using it or whether it’s better to look for something else.

An ideal investment portfolio will generate significant income even when the fortunes of the largest financial markets is extremely unstable. It has a lot of tools, which means that even the complete loss of one source has virtually no effect on well-being.

6. Conclusion and conclusions + thematic video

Passive income is a real opportunity to provide yourself with a decent life right now, without experiencing dependence on relatives, the state or anyone else.
