Wealth Creation Tips - Creating Your Own Recurring Income Streams

By James Woolley

Creating recurring income streams is one of the most enjoyable ways of making money because an initial action can result in a lifetime of passive income. So with that in mind, I want to share with you several different recurring income profit models.

Let's start by discussing online marketing first of all because this requires a minimal amount of capital and is therefore the best option for those who don't have much cash. You basically have two options here. You can either promote affiliate products that pay recurring commissions or you can venture into the world of network marketing.

Both have their pros and cons but after dabbling with network marketing in the past I now prefer to focus my attention on promoting affiliate products. I particularly like to promote those that offer recurring monthly commissions such as autoresponders, web hosts, and membership sites. This is because for every referral you make you receive ongoing commissions for as long as that referral remains a customer (which can be several years if the product is of sufficient quality).

So this is the best method of generating recurring income online in my opinion. However if you already have a lot of disposable income, then you have several additional options.

Firstly you can invest some of your money into property. With the downturn in the housing market, now is an excellent time to pick up a bargain or two, particularly as there are a lot of repossessions and distressed sellers out there. Morally it's not a pleasant experience benefiting from other people's misery but the fact remains that if you don't buy these types of properties, then someone else will.

Once you have bought a property you can create a recurring income stream for yourself by renting it out. This way not only do you earn a solid monthly income, but you will also benefit from any capital growth when the housing market recovers at some point.

Another way you can use your existing capital to provide yourself with an income is to invest it into high-dividend shares. With share prices so low, there are now plenty of opportunities to buy into companies who pay out large dividends such as the utility companies for instance. Again if you want to increase your overall gains, you should also try and time your entry point so that you benefit from any future price rises in case you wish to sell the shares at some point.

So to sum up, there are lots of ways you can generate recurring income streams, and best of all you don't necessarily need a lot of starting capital because you can easily promote affiliate products or network marketing programs online.
