You seem like a nice chap, genuine in your comments, so I'm asking an honest question:

Do you have experience yourself getting that specific ROI (ie, 350k USD investment to get 15k USD monthly passive income)?

Or are you extrapolating from a smaller sample that you have direct experience with, or is this all something you've just read about?




Currently I'm at €3k/month with around €10k investment and no time spent (just bought existing projects; I've started July 2018 - planning to invest another €20k in the next 2-3 months to increase it to €4-5k/month - I live in Germany where €3k is the average monthly salary), but very good friends of mine have achieved €15-50k/month (I've seen the proofs and affiliate payments). Those friends are the main reason I've started doing this in the first place. They're a bit more motivated than I am (I have a web agency and affiliate marketing is not something where I can derive a meaning of life from). Another thing: Many of them were rich (500k+) before starting their online businesses, but I personally have around 3 friends who've built businesses with €6-30k/month using their own hands (only time and hard work; e.g. one with a YouTube channel and another one with a lot of niche sites).

The main reason I openly talk about this: Most people won't do something. They're comfortable. So I'm not afraid to share information because 99% will simply ignore it. And for 1% it'll be life-changing.


@mockingbirdy, do you have an email contact ? Would be curious to learn more about your experiences in this area.
