Burke Hedges – Author explains the importance of a residual income.
And for that, one must build a pipeline which flows money into your pockets forever.
He quoted ‘ Pipelines are Lifelines’ because pipelines generate money even when you sleep.
It is not possible for anyone to work 24/7 throughout the life to earn money.
According to Burke’s calculation, 1 person can do 1 unit of work per 1 unit of money only.
If you stop going to work for a single day, a week or a month , your income will stop.
This clearly means we are living in a paycheck to paycheck model.
Therefore, better build a pipeline which generates revenue for you. It flows money when you play and even when you sleep.
