Tapping Into Additional Streams Of Income

In my personal opinion many people latch onto W2 income for far longer than necessary. From a viewpoint of maintaining W2 income to qualify for traditional financing I can understand it however when the ball is officially rolling and you have a fair amount of capital in your possession what has prevented you from taking the leap into a more full time and active approach to your investment dealings? To those in the BP community who took the leap what have you been doing since leaving your w2 job to help supplement your lifestyle on top of your investments/flips? (Ex. Becoming a Realtor, Insurance Agent, etc.)

Thanks for your responses in advance!
