What Are the 7 Income Streams?

1. Earned Money


Alternatively, your salary or average monthly revenue from your principal work. Earned income might be based on an hourly rate as well as bonuses, commissions, and other factors. This applies whether you are employed or self-employed. This earned income is normally taxed, however at varying levels depending on the amount.



2. Business Profits


You may obtain additional income from enterprises you have established in addition to your earned income. These are your side hustles, and they might come from a single source or several sources.


The difference between profit and loss is often visible on your balance sheets. Again, this is subject to taxation.


3. Interest Earnings


You will get interest on your bank account funds, albeit this rate is likely to have dropped dramatically by 2020. It should ideally correspond to the amount of inflation, but interest rates are now very low.



Check your bank statements to find out what your interest rate is. If you have financed any loans, you may be entitled for interest when the principle is returned.


CIT Bank, Aspiration, and Consumers Credit Union are a few institutions that offer interest rates.


4. Income from Dividends


If your business structure allows it, the stocks and shares you invest in may pay dividends or you may be paid through dividend. Dividends are more usually referred to as a portion of earnings.


As the Director of an LLC, for example, you may divide your income into twelve monthly dividend distributions. Alternatively, some assets provide quarterly or yearly dividends.



5. Rental Earnings


Once you own property, you may start collecting rental revenue to supplement your monthly income. You may be liable to additional taxes depending on the structure of your property (if it's under a separate business, for example), therefore the yield of your property income should account for this.


When a landlord, you'll almost certainly have to pay a mortgage as you buy more homes. This should also be included when calculating your rental revenue.


6. Capital Gains


Capital Gains income is earned by selling assets such as art, stocks, businesses, and loans. Income generated via this way is liable to capital gains tax, although it is often acquired in a large amount rather than gradually over time. The IRS website has further information on capital gains tax.



7. Income from royalties or licensing


Are you a creative person who creates music or photographs? By licensing something for specific public use, you may get royalties as an additional source of money.


Royalties are unlikely to be large on their own, but widespread production/use of your work is likely to provide a consistent flow.
