  • Learn about the common types of income: earned, passive, and portfolio. Discover tips and strategies to maximize your income.

The article by True Tamplin on Forbes, published on February 17, 2025, discusses three common types of income: earned income, portfolio income, and passive income. Earned income includes wages, salaries, and tips, which are directly tied to one's labor. To maximize this, the article suggests negotiating salary, seeking promotions, or acquiring new skills. Portfolio income comes from investments like stocks, bonds, and mutual funds, where strategies for maximization include diversification, reinvesting dividends, and understanding market trends. Passive income involves earnings from activities in which you are not materially participating, such as rental properties, royalties, or business partnerships. The article recommends investing in real estate, creating intellectual property, or starting a side business to increase passive income streams. Each type of income has its own tax implications and strategies for growth, emphasizing the importance of a balanced approach to income generation for financial stability and growth.
