Design Your Dream Life Through Passive Income | Alex Szepietowski | TEDxUniversityofYork

Investing in alternative income streams that are independent of the government should be the top priority for everyone right now. especially given the global economic crisis we are currently experiencing. Stocks, gold, silver, and virtual currencies are still attractive investments at the moment.

I started my side hustle in June 2018, and today, it makes me more than my active income and still growing, and I am a software engineer in Cisco. And this income is completely passive. Kudos to me.

Around 14:30 he mentions rich dad poor dad. That book is meant to teach you the mentality, the execution is up to you. I’m glad this man is spreading this information.

I like that expression: "Before you start climbing the ladder... be sure it is leaning on the right building." Herein lies the failure of all those who hate what they're doing... after 40 years of doing it.

I had basically no money, two years later I owned 24 houses and paid off all my debts. Ok, thanks for telling us how you did that.

I’m here 3 years later and I actually just wrote in my gratitude journal today about 10mins before this video popped up. “Thank you for me learning how to make and create passive income.” I haven’t searched or even thought about it until today I just thought oh well that’s something I want to learn how to do. So that’s confirmation that thoughts/desires turn into things and you attract things with your thoughts/desires. There are a lot of negative comments here because of one reason or another people dissatisfied with what he said and there’s nothing wrong with that but you could also just use that same energy into finding whatever you were looking for here instead of spending it on here. I actually loved his talk and think it’s worth listening to. It’s up to you to figure out how to actually do it. He’s letting people know that it’s possible to do at all because most people are so programmed to think you actually have to work or put in a lot of effort to earn money. As well as asking people what would they do if money wasn’t an issue? Because that’s the Golden question and it’s actually what you’re supposed to do and should do. People are all like that’s unrealistic and risky but forget how short life is and how you can always just get a job if it doesn’t work out anyway. And for those saying if everyone made passive income then no one would be able to make money that’s not true. Even passive income makers need to buy stuff and do things. Like watching YouTube, YouTube is passive income for someone and another passive income maker can watch their video and they both still make passive income. If you don’t like it or what he says or how life is be the change you wanna see in the world don’t just complain about it because you’re adding to the problem not the solution. 💖

This does work. If you hear Alex speak, he is the most gentle and trusting person you can think of. He is so true to himself and his values, he does really want what's best for everyone around... Incredible experience hearing to his webinar tonight

The more work you put in the more rewards and opportunities come your way, that compound effect really struck a chord with me, because that's exactly what it means. You have to be actively direct selling and getting out there, not just watching loads of videos or reading loads of articles.

WOW. A young man talks about creating a vision of life that isn't just about survival and everyone here rips him apart in comments. I loved the talk. This is exactly what my husband and I have done over the last few years, focusing on building passive and residual income and this young man is brilliant. Awesome. Thanks for the talk. Love the passion. More people should open their minds to what is possible

Next Tedx talk geared to girls 6 to 12: What Would it be Like to Have Your Dream Pony? - What are the advantages of having a dream pony and the disadvantages of not having a pony at all? How does it feel like not having a pony, because I've got a bunch and its great...

This is what I been thinking... A day or series of days you get up and say I don't want to go to office and sleep back without saying anything or thinking anything... that experience will be an awesome.. and more awesome to think what all you could do when you have all time in the world.. all well said....

I dream of a world where people actually make useful, positive comments about things they learned from this gentleman and other speakers rather than making a bunch of negative comments like many made here. This speaker, Alex, is giving his advice based on his experience, Use, it or don't use it. No one made you watch it. Find the positive and move forward, and you will have benefited. Merely making negative comments serves only to keep you stagnant.

Successful people don't become that way overnight.what most people see at a glance-wealth,a great career,purpose- is the result of hardwork and hustle over time.

for those that do not know about passive incomes this talk is an introduction regardless of whether he makes money from it or not

"You can live infinitely forever" This quote is why people are so drawn to this movement. I am sorry to break it to you. Everything will one day burn and you will live forever, choose wisely. God bless 🇺🇸

Not everyone can achieve passive income and because of this fact, passive income presents a moral dilemma. A real life example of passive income is a relative of mine who owns hundreds of rental properties. The mortgages were paid off decades ago and now he earns millions in profit annually. This is a prime example of utilizing the capitalist society AKA the American Dream. The problem with this dream is that if all the tenants paying their rent attempted the same strategy by giving up their manual labor jobs, the foundation of society would start to crumble. Some people have to do the dirty work for the benefit of the rest of society... We can't all lie back and let someone else make our money. I'm afraid to say that it takes a certain "looking the other way" mentality to let someone else slave for you, but hey, it's the stuff this country was built on.

Grow expensive plants = passive income. Plants grow, you sell.

How did this get so many likes? He basically spent 80% of the video building up to what he was supposed to tell us - which he didn't even really tell us.

Ok for those who've never heard of passive income. After reading the description I thought I was actually going to learn something. Good on him for getting the platform, public speaking can be tough when you're new to it.

You CLEARLY see that hes a passive worker because he literally made no presentation but rather decided to only speak (not even freely).
