My Lifeline: Passive Income, when faced with Illness
I have long advocated working in your own time, since my Chronic Fatigue Syndrome diagnosis, in fact. I have found it to be perfect for my recovery. As I fell ill with flu, I started thinking about the incredible benefit of passive income. In life, unexpected challenges and setbacks can arise when we least expect them. One such challenge is illness, which can disrupt our routines, drain our energy, and impact our ability to work and earn income. During these trying times, having a source of passive income can provide much-needed stability, support, and peace of mind. Let’s explore why passive income is a valuable asset, especially when facing health-related challenges.
1. Financial Security During Recovery
When illness strikes, the last thing anyone wants to worry about is finances. Medical bills, prescription costs, and other healthcare expenses can quickly add up, placing a significant strain on our finances. However, having passive income streams in place can help alleviate some of the financial burden associated with illness. Whether it’s rental income, dividends from investments, online courses, books, or royalties from creative work, passive income provides a steady stream of revenue that can help cover essential expenses during recovery.
