Read this excellent resource on http://www.oppsincome.com <br />Do you have a regular income for which you do not have to work to get it? If so, you have passive income. Any income that you receive on a regular basis for which you do not have to actively participate is passive income. If you make an initial investment with either time or money and then received a residual income regularly, than that is passive income. It’s the same as letting your money work for you.
