8 ways to create passive income: from simple to the most difficult

1. Keep money in the bank

If you expect to save or live on interest from the deposit, then open a deposit in a bank in a reliable currency. Most banks enter the state deposit insurance system to 1.4 million rubles, so choose a bank with the maximum percentage. If you want to put an amount of more than 1.4 million, then break up the deposits into several.

For example, if you postpone every month for only $ 100, then you will have a passive income of more than $ 1000 to your pension (compare with the Russian pension - 3-4 times less), and after death leave your grandchildren an inheritance - more than $ 160 000. Here we took the difference between the interest on the deposit and inflation is 6% (a very real figure), and you started to postpone at 23 years, a compound interest was taken into account.

2. "Pocket money" store on a bank card with interest

To receive income from the amount you use during a month, keep the amount of current expenses for a month on the bank card, which is used to calculate interest on the balance.

For example, Bank "Tinkoff" gives 14% of the balance on the card in rubles to 500 thousand rubles. Let's say that within a month your expenses are about 100 thousand rubles, then for a year you will receive an additional 10 thousand rubles. At the same time, your money on the card is not frozen, unlike the deposit, and you can use them at any time.

Many good IT products that help business have an interesting affiliate program: Accounting Outline, Megaplan cloud system, Supl.biz marketplace, etc.

For example, if you attract 10 customers to the trading platform Supl.biz, you will receive a passive income at the level of 15 thousand rubles. every month. At the same time, you will do a good job for the company you are a partner with, and those people who will recommend the product, because it will really help them in business.

This is perhaps one of the easiest ways to invest. According to statistics, about 30% of housing in Moscow is bought for investment. In addition, that the price of real estate is constantly growing, you can live in an apartment and save tens of thousands of rubles on a lease.

To competently invest in real estate, make friends with an intelligent agent - a friend who works in real estate, there are almost everyone. He will tell you the right decision. The main thing is not to buy real estate at a time when its price is at its peak.

5. Help your friends create a business for a small fraction

If you are engaged in intellectual activity, then you are likely to be surrounded by intelligent and active people, many of whom want to start their own business. Help them in this! For a small share in the business, for example, 1-5%, depending on the volume and benefits of your work.

Usually, beginning entrepreneurs willingly agree to such conditions, because they need help not only intellectual or advice, but also emotional support. Especially important is the support not just from an outsider, but from someone who is vitally interested in the success of a new enterprise.
