Episode notes
Listener Turned Multiple Side Hustles Into $50K
- Roger has started many side hustles and stuck with three that now generate over $50,000 per year.
- He used earnings to prepay his mortgage, take vacations, and reduce job-loss anxiety, showing tangible life impact.
Two Stages Of Passive Income

- Chris frames true passive income as waking up to money that requires no follow-up because systems were built earlier.
Design New Projects For Low Touch Operations
