Passive income is a parasitic idea. I don't have to do anything and I get paid? Great! That's my dream! No hate on passive income, but if this is all you think about, you're a parasite.

You probably live in a country where any job is well paid. I live in a country where doctors and teachers earn next to nothing, so I can’t judge people for wanting passive income

All ideas become parasitic if they become “all you think about” The idea behind passive income is good. Taken to an extreme, you’re missing out on so much. Ps- love that you used amps to boost this cast 🤪

i’m here for these hot takes 🔥 that’s certainly one way to see it. but passive income allows an engineer in big tech to work on open source public goods full time. it allows a mom to quit 1 of her 2 jobs to spend time more time w her kids, etc etc. it enables you to be more selective with your time, is it really parasitic to want that?

It’s just an immediate cash out means, because in the long run it won’t last and majority end up blowing the money before the need it

I think it's more of a myth than anything. It implies set up once, collect forever, but the cost of active upkeep just means it's deferred income!

I rent out cine cameras for passive income while maintaining a full time job and other streams of revenue. It’s all good.

What’s funny is many kids probably think of YouTubing or gaming as passive income and they absolutely are not. It’s a shit ton of work and you’re unlikely to succeed. But content creators make it seem easy

I beg to disagree. Passive income isn’t about doing nothing it’s about building something that can thrive without you after active effort. It takes time, risk, and strategy. Most people chasing it aren’t lazy they’re trying to escape burnout and build long-term stability.

The problem is our society is undergoing an honor breakdown where ppl want to get paid for contributing nothing of value, while a select few own most of the capital assets that produce juicy cash flows
