Get Rich While Sleeping

Money is the key to happiness. Without it, you won’t be able to achieve your dreams.

Ambitious people always try to find ways to get extra money in order to invest in themselves. This is the best list to make money while sleeping:

1- Programming

Programming is essential nowadays. Parents should teach their kids how to code because the world is shifting towards software development.

You can become a game developer since by publishing a game with ads and in app purchases, you will get extra money while sleeping. High KPI = more money per ad watched. You can check unity3d.com which has a great and simple user interface for all developers (from 8 years old till 100 years old).

Also, you can become an android and/or IOS developer and create an application where thousands or millions of people download it, and if this app has in app purchase and/or ads, then you will get lots and lots of money.

Finally, you can become a fullstack web developer and create your own website. It depends on the type of websites you will develop. alibaba.com which his net worth is 41.8$ billion according to money.com

I will write an article soon that will calculate how much money you can make depending on the number of downloads you have.

2- Youtube

You can create a Youtube channel and begin uploading videos about a topic that you’re really good at.

Trust me, filming a Youtube video is not that easy especially if you’re a programmer.

Don’t wait for the perfect conditions, just turn on your camera and begin filming. You will never know how many people will watch it.

These are some topics that you might want to consider to get high views easily: money, music, sports, fashion, and tutorials (programming for example).

3- Sell Courses

You can create your own courses on udemy.com. If you’re skilled enough, why not film your own videos and upload them to Udemy. Therefore, students would learn from you, buy your courses and most probably will become part of your community or followers.

Prove me wrong.
If you're poor how would you buy a house or even medicine for yourself.

Without oxygen you couldn’t survive long enough to live in that house or take that medicine... so is oxygen also the key to happiness?

I don't need to prove you wrong.

You and I have different values in life of how happiness and dreams are achieved.

I can just tell you that I came to United States with $47 19 years ago and I know what is it to be poor, without medicine and house.

There are two things I learned and can share with you.

You either can do something about it or not.. your choice.

shouldn't bait people into programming on the promise it'd make them rich. You're making it sound WAY too easy.
People should do what they love, they are passionate about and try to make a living off that. That's a dream that isn't achieved by many cough

They didn't achieve their dreams because they didn't work hard enough or they just gave up on the first heavy obstacle they faced.

There are so many ways to make many other than programming. I am writing from my point of view and from many other billionaires too.

The point is when you master a skill, you can ask for hundreds or thousands of dollars per hour

You assume to know what peoples dreams are, you can't know.
You assume to know why they fail, you also can't know.

A skill is easiest mastered if you do what you love, not doing what someone else did or said you should do. A mastered skill (whatever it may be) will likely lead you to success, which will likely lead to money.

But hey, that's just my non-billionaires point of view.

Click bait. I'm pretty sure you could only make money in your sleep as a freelancer if you are hired by a sleep research lab. Otherwise it's hard work and you have to be awake for it. And pretty much everything else mentioned here.

And come on, Alibaba is not a website that could be created by a full stack developer, it's a business that is tough to build. The website is a small part of it. It's like saying that Google is that small webpage with a search box on it any junior dev can build.

And I especially disagree with your statement, that money is a key to happiness. Some amount of money is needed to survive, a bit more for comfort, but beyond that it's not changing much for you and your life. There are lots and lots of very rich people who are miserable, depressed and not happy with their life. As many poor people are too.

I didn't say that you don't need hard work to achieve your goals.

So you're telling me that without money you can be happy.
How will you be able to take care of your beloved ones then.
