Passive Income Myths: Real Estate, Risk & Reality (Part 1)

Send us a text

In this episode, we break down the biggest myths surrounding passive income and why “passive” doesn’t always mean easy—or risk-free. Many investors believe real estate and high-yield opportunities are simple paths to steady income, but the reality is far more nuanced.

We discuss the true definition of passive income, the tradeoff between passivity and cash flow, and why more convenience often means less income. From rental properties and short-term rentals to REITs and alternative investments, we explore the hidden risks, liquidity challenges, and opportunity costs most people overlook. You’ll also learn why real estate feels safer than stocks—and why that perception can be misleading.

If you’re building income for retirement or evaluating passive income strategies, this episode will help you think more clearly about risk, return, and what “passive” really means.
