You mostly talk about building a side project during your day to day job as a mean to provide "passive income". In my experience in order to build a successful product, the time comes when you have to make a decision to quit your job and start investing whatever you got in it. Even a side project can scale to this very moment that I am talking about. I don't agree that you need to have the possibility to build it without funding or without marketing. I do agree that funding and marketing need to come in good timing but it is very hard to succeed without them, it barely happens.
I can totally relate to the safety net, though.
