Part 6/8:
Despite the pitfalls, the appeal of passive income remains strong. Many of the advertisements promote passive income strategies, drawing people in with promises of financial independence. The reality is that those producing these promotions often earn their own income by selling the illusion rather than implementing the strategies they advertise.
The irony is that the most lucrative "passive income" approach is often selling passive income strategies themselves. The proliferation of online courses and tutorials, promising the keys to financial freedom, often leads individuals to spend money on courses without realizing that they may never recoup their investment.
