I am with you on this! I know a lady with some 20 rental apartments. Income is far from passive, managing (and suing not paying) tenants takes some serious time. Some tech workers have huge stock portfolios, however taking care of stocks takes some time.

I met many people in my life, rich and poor, but nobody was lying on the couch and enjoying rain of 500 euro banknotes. Maybe it’s an American thing.

Taking care of your own trees also takes time. For one, you need to put them in good soil, water them perhaps, keep them clear from pests, trim them, etc.
