HELP! I Hate My Job. How Do I Create Passive Income ASAP?

[Fredrick Hock]

Hello!

How would you recommend creating a passive income stream of at least $5K per month, in the shortest amount of time? What would your strategy be (and how much capital would be needed)? For example, would you recommend Buy-and-hold rentals, Crowdfunding (e.g. YieldStreet), Bonds, CD's, P2P Lending, etc?

I am a freelancer approaching my mid-30's, and am getting weary of trading my time for money (along with the uncertainty of freelancing). My current plan is to purchase rental properties, and wanted to see what other options are available to diversify my passive income stream & live a comfortable life as I get older.

What do you recommend?  Please HELP!
