This is because your job is giving you the regular income on monthly level, while secondary income streams takes some time for set up. This income stream will take most of your time and effort.

- Secondary financial streams are something that you should build after you have your main job / business well established. This can be anything that suits to you: part time job, self-employment, writing, web site building, consulting, etc. It will be still taking some of your time, but it should take you less time and effort than you main profession. Be careful with your personal engagement, in order to avoid burn out and saturation point, that can take you away from MIS concept.

- Passive Income streams are the third group of MISs. They are called passive simply since they do not take your time and effort, or they require relatively little attention. Literally they earn you the money as you sleep. These income streams can be the rent from a property that you own, royalties from a book that you have written, fee's from intellectual property you have licensed, bank interest rates, investment funds, ads income from your web site, etc. The passive income sources do not come just like that. They are the result of wisely concepted activities of your primary and secondary business activity. At the beginning of your career, your passive income is probably zero. But as you career grows, you should establish as much possible incomes as possible. Eventually, you should be able to gradually pull out from your primary and secondary business activity and grow most of your income from passive income sources.

Having a MISs from primary, secondary and passive income streams will accelerate your wealth building. Simply, these three income groups are the main pillars of your income security. You will be able to secure your income through synergy of various income streams.
