What was your best passive income of 2019?
I have had success with class action lawsuits.
Don't know if it counts, but I sold my house for 40% more than I bought it 5 years ago. Combination of market appreciation in the area and strategic improvements.
Also, I wrote a tech book a few years ago and still get a couple hundred bucks every quarter.
Not at all tech related, but my friend and I loan money for mortgages to people who likely wouldn't be able to get one from a bank. Mostly fix and flips, interest only, two year term. Make 12% on each one.
I bought a few shares of Apple at 149 during the silly market overreaction of 2019 and have almost doubled my investment at current prices.
I’ll post mine since I started the topic.
I sold a couple pictures of my travel this year. Got a few hundred bucks out of it. I’m pretty happy about it since the goal wasn’t to make money out of it.
30% returns across a few hand picked stocks, VTSAX, and VOO. The hand picked stocks are a good chunk of the SP500, and so this isn’t all really that diversified... I know.
1.8-2.2% returns on cash. Meh.
A niche shopify store netted me low 5 figures without much work.
Made some good money on the stock market, some modest bets and a lot of index funds. Made about 10% more than s&p 500 for 2019.
My best was dividends on a REIT and that was followed up by royalties from a book I published a couple years ago
Bought bitcoin at 4K, sold at 10k.
Global indexed funds. 23% gain in 2019. Nice.
