Understanding Passive Income and Rental Property

Passive income is described as revenue generated without active time inputs. A standard definition relates it to earning rent from a property you own, making it an initial form of passive income according to the government's tax definition. Some individuals in the fire community focus on acquiring rental units as a passive income strategy, while others, like the podcast hosts, prefer alternatives like REITs and real estate investments in portfolios over direct property ownership to avoid the potential hassles.
