Talk to a CPA (which I am not)... you could do a 401(k), but 401(k)'s have a lot of rules and are fairly expensive to set-up and administer unless you already have one set-up for your business. 

What is interesting to me is all the owner/operators I know and/or know of that were founded in the 90's, have an almost allergic reaction to interest rate exposure.  

If not (ie two full-time working spouses) your only other option is going into land conservation deals, solar deals, or oil and gas deals - all of which have some risks.Explained in a different way...1) There are ordinary/W2/active income on one side.

I’ve tried eating 1x a day for 1 year (Not healthy for me) and various water fasting protocols to eventually settling on my current lifestyle of: 1)Taking stairs daily 2)Intermittent fasting of 16 hours daily/ 3-4 Day water fasts Quarterly3)Mineral consumption daily using Fulvic Acid, Icelandic Kelp, a powdered Electrolyte to regular water, Spring Water (Minerals are ESSENTIAL to hydration) 4)Daily Fruit consumption 5)Grass Fed, Grass finished Beef 6)Minimal Fried foods (I still LOVE French fries) 7)No seed oils (only Tallow, butter and/or avocado oil) 8)Cut back on white flour and grains (Minimal breads, pastry, pasta) 9)No soda 10)No dairy (Cow’s milk is for baby calfs)11)Minimal alcohol (Maybe Vodka or Tequila RARELY) 12)At lease 7 hours of sleep daily13)No watching CNN, MSNBC, NY TImes, Washington Post, NPR or ABC, NBC, CBS…………….

I may even move into my little bungalow eventually when I get off the road working (oil and gas industry ) my W2 job.

On the inside, the apartment was left pretty dirty..greasy stove from oil being over heated, dust all over ceiling and walls(an impressive amount), wall stains from what looks like candles or incense burning?

You could go oil/gas rights. 

You want to investigate the full range of possible 1031 options (residential, commercial, syndicated, active, passive, oil/gas/solar, etc.) if you're hunting for income.  

A few more passive, but riskier, ways to offset w2 income are oil and gas investing and ATM investing which have funds. 

After months of waiting, the seller finally was able to finish taking out an oil tank and get state regulatory approval.
