It is now a shareware 3-minute animated movie. Go to YouTube or FaceBook and put in "Mark Albion" and you will find "The Good Life Parable," and my new book with the story, More Than Money. http://www.new.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=554442261117 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7JlI959slY http://www.bkconnection.com/morethanmoney I wrote this story over a decade ago, but it is based in Buddhist tradition, Russian Folklore and similar too a lighter story written in 1963 by Henrich Boll, which I had never seen until this year.

I literally do nothing for this money. There are lots of passive income business opps. You can buy something turn key, you can invest in one, you can be a silent partner, or money partner- there are so many ways to receive passive income from a business that you yourself are not working in. (all legit...too legit to quit) The majority of what I bring in each month is passive income from a business I invested in. I literally do nothing for this money.

At my ripe age of 26, however, I find it exciting to play the wealth and income building games. Asset Gatherer, investing in real estate is fun, but it must be carefully planned. If you want to replace your employment income, you'll need to do a series of very well-thought out, shrewd REI deals to get your cash stream flowing. For instance, a flip, then a good income generating property, and another flip is a strategy I've seen people using a lot. 1) Be careful not to fall into a trap like <a href="http://iamfacingforeclosure.com" rel="nofollow">this</a>. 2) I think you might find a couple of posts on my blog interesting as it shows some different <a href="http://ngifford.wordpress.com/2006/10/10/the-market/" rel="nofollow">markets</a> and <a href="http://ngifford.wordpress.com/2006/10/11/income-statement-property-2/" rel="nofollow">possibilities</a> for getting maximum cash flow from a property. 3) A back-up plan is always nice.

Asset Gatherer, investing in real estate is fun, but it must be carefully planned. If you want to replace your employment income, you’ll need to do a series of very well-thought out, shrewd REI deals to get your cash stream flowing. For instance, a flip, then a good income generating property, and another flip is a strategy I’ve seen people using a lot.

1) Be careful not to fall into a trap like this.
2) I think you might find a couple of posts on my blog interesting as it shows some different markets and possibilities for getting maximum cash flow from a property.
3) A back-up plan is always nice.

Methinks you've read too many speculator books, as in "Earn money without doing anything at all!" There is no end to these grifters. Talk to anybody who has ever created a legitimate business and no dollar they ever earned was earned "passively." “Starting a company and generating passive income”?

During my younger days my thought would be to get a job right away, then I would be making double the pay until May 07. But now, I'd say that you have a great 6 month opportunity to try something that you really want to do. However, start saving a little money or cutting back. You can't live the next 6 months like your job will always be there. I think you'll find that without a job, your expenses drop alot and that you can live on very little. During this time you can start a business, get a job in a different field, do what you enjoy. In May when the checks stop coming I think you'll have a good idea of what you want to do. If all else fails, just go get another job in June! Asset Gatherer,

I am definately the businessman and have a hard time "turning it off" sometimes. The wheels are always turning. I often get stuck in this cycle of get-stuff-done-get-stuff-done.
