Passive Income Doesn’t Exist

Pieter Levels is a well-known online entrepreneur, founder of successful sites such as Nomad List and Remote OK (reviewed here).

Someone made a TikTok saying Peter earns $800,000/year in passive income 🤑

Pieter responded:

my revenue is anything but passive / It’s a daily effort and challenge to keep getting sales, ranking on Google, getting traffic and keeping customers happy / Passive income doesn’t exist

I believe passive income does actually exist.

But the inconvenient truth is that the more you focus on it – especially when you’re just starting out working online – the less likely you are to achieve it 😭

The people most likely to achieve and maintain it are people like Pieter who are happy to work long hours consistently, regardless of their earnings.

Paradoxical, ain’t it?
