I first thought about sources of residual income when listening to the audiobook version of Rich Dad, Poor Dad. Kyoski talks about how there are 4 kinds of income – having a job, self-employed (where you own your own job), investment income and owning a business. I always thought that owning a business WAS the same as being self-employed.
