Whether it is advertising or selling personal information, everything on the internet is monetized.

If someone has worked very hard for decades on systems and processes and a high quality network then I believe in most cases there is no issue monetizing that knowledge.

Also starting to try to monetize information through Blogs, YT channels and eventually writing books, but it will be years before I see anything noticeable from that. 

Also, the annuity payments include return of principal, so there would likely be a little bit of capital gains tax every year.When you couple an intermediary installment sale approach with a separate monetization loan, you may be able to get cash at closing that you can use to re-invest and still get tax-deferral.

@Lisa Graesser Following this thread - I am wondering how Houfy monetizes from the listings if they don't charge either hosts or guests. 

And for the tax benefits.I would go ask that banker if he's ever actually looked at an investor that has bought investment property (SFH) and then looked at it again in 15 to 20 years.For those of us adding properties where we're getting 250 to 350/mo net income after the purchase and coming out of pocket 5k to 10k.

They love the 85% LTV SFR investment property mortgage, and delayed financing.For things that do work, but that I do not see consistently, it's always things where someone has some niche thing they are truly personally passionate about or really good at, and figure out how to monetize it.

Learning at the front end equips you with a toolbox of skills and abilities to monetize more opportunities that may otherwise pass you by.
