Don’t you think your life would be much easier if you got paid while you were eating, sleeping, and playing with the kids too? Why not get paid 24/7? Get paid

Don’t you think your life would be much easier if you got paid while you were eating, sleeping, and playing with the kids too? Why not get paid 24/7? Get paid whether you work or not. Don’t your plants grow even when you aren’t tending to them? Why not your bank account?[...] Smart people build systems that generate income 24/7, especially passive income. [...] Sure it takes some upfront time and effort to design and implement your own income-generating systems.
I can get exactly the same effect by working for a paycheck and putting my earnings in something that pays interest. What is the approximate net present value of a blog post, how many hours does it take to write, and how does this compare to the dollars/hour available from more traditional work?
...and that's actually the least stupid part of the article.
