These Stocks Yield Up to 13.5%… But I Doubt You Know About Them
My husband Melvin and I bought our first home when we were expecting our first child. After an exhaustive search, we settled on an up-and-down duplex. It was built in the 1940s and had a rental suite in the basement.
The purchase was a good decision from a financial standpoint. Rental payments covered a substantial part of our mortgage, and about two years later we were able to sell it for 20% more than we paid.
But from a lifestyle perspective, it was not ideal. First, the rental suite's bathroom faucet started leaking. Then ceiling tiles came tumbling down. Soon the rent was a week overdue and counting. There was always something.
I learned some important lessons from that experience. First, carefully selected real estate could be highly profitable. Second, I didn't want to deal with the upkeep required by rental properties.
Thankfully, there are real estate investment trusts (REITs).

Linear Income vs. Residual Income
The Definition of Linear Income
With linear income, you do work and get paid once. Pretty simple.
Like many of you, I was raised as a kid to produce linear income. I was told by teachers that the way to make a living was to go to college, get a steady paying job, and support a family. All of that is great, but the “steady” part led me to believe that I had to make a linear income–doing the work that would pay me once for the effort involved. I believed that the only “steady” paying jobs were the ones where income was immediately realized yet low in compensation.
