I want passive income but analyze: is passive income actually passive? Map the "passive" income streams: time to build, maintenance required, actual passivity. Calculate: if building "passive" income takes 2 years of active work, is it really passive? Show me the passive income lie: nothing is truly passive, everything requires setup and maintenance. Give me the honest assessment: these income streams become somewhat passive AFTER this much active work. Include: which "passive income" streams are least passive, how much work each actually requires, and whether I should chase passive or just build active income first.
