Since the late 90s, the fastest way to make money by doing very little is selling 'internet marketing' strategies. These strategies do work if you have a large following. They mostly do not work, at all, if you do not. So if you have a mailing list with engaged users (not bought), 100k+ twitter followers etc. The tips / books these people sell are usually actually from their own experience and they usually indeed made 100k overnight, however, these strategies were usually just luck/chance in their case and now they can do anything because they have the following and the fanbase. The worst thing you can do is believe them as some magic shortcut. But indeed, after all this time (search for 'warriorforum' to see a community that's entirely made out of this type of thing), the thing that can make you $100k+/year from the beach is still writing a book about you got $100k+/year by writing+selling that book. You probably read a few or followed a few of these internet marketers; they can make you feel very bad as they just send out something and make money immediately; that's because their followers are dreamers, not doers and they'll do anything for a quick fix.
