Honestly, if I knew how to run a passive-income business, I'd be doing it.

Think: our field is one of the few where the average worker owns his own means-of-production. Practical impact: the 40-60 hours you don't have to spend getting an income each week, if you have a passive income, can be spent on building awesome open-source projects you release for free to undercut those who like living in cubicles.
