This is the ultimate goal of people who have a home business. This is the dream that many people have when they start to read the advertisements of how to earn $1,000 a day without any work. To have a residual income means you have to have some product that will keep generating income while you are busy doing other things. The thing is it will take work to get to that stage. Many people who make large sums of money online will keep working because they enjoy what they do. They want to create the next ebook, or the next script. They know that having a number of products to sell will be better than trying to sell just one product, especially when other people will also be selling it and in twelve months time or even less it is out of date. You will need to see how you can create a residual income for yourself but you will need it if you plan on retiring early and living off your income for the rest of your life. You might decide to have a report which is given away or sold very cheaply which has affiliate links in it or promotes some of your other products. This one free or cheap report could earn you thousands if you do it correctly. Maybe you don’t totally understand what this means, and what is residual income. Let’s use this as an example. You have a house which you live in, and you suddenly either get left a house or a large sum of money which will allow you to buy another house. It might not be where you want to live but you know that selling it isn’t the best option because house prices are falling. (Maybe that isn’t true but we will assume this for our example) You look at the property and think with a little work you could make it look nice, maybe it only needs decorating. Then you go to put it up for rent. You are told you can get $1,000 a month for that property. Soon you have a tenant and each month you receive this income. You pay the realtor to make sure the rent is paid and to be kept informed of any work that might be needed. But you basically sit back and enjoy the money coming in. You know while you have that house with a tenant you will have a good income coming in month after month.
