Cash Flow: How does one create an income without having a job, while you work on a big idea that may take time to become cash flow positive?

Jordan Malik, Expert on Amazon, marketing, revenue generation+ answered:

Anyone who tells you there are 'push-button' ways to generate are lying. There are at least two viable ways to get reliable, consistent revenue streams and grow them into a full-time size income: 1.) become an expert on something (anything where people are raising their hands and saying "I need help and I will pay to get it), grow an audience by giving away some of that info for free and then charging them for premium content around that 'something' and 2.) (a faster method) selling physical products online (specifically on Amazon, as a 3rd party merchant), which you can get started for under $50 and sell easily accessible and inexpensive (or free) inventory that's around you today.
