Here's a short list of passive income options
Passive Income Ideas From Time Investment
1. Affiliate Marketing - Commission income from sales of other people or company's products from your referral. The business model usually requires having a website or blog where you review in favor of the product and provide an affiliate link used to track your referral and sale.
2. Starting a YouTube channel - After videos on your channel accumulate 4000 hours of watch time and 1000 subscribers, your channel achieves monetization eligibility through the YouTube partner program. Income can then be earned through affiliate links, selling digital products and ads YouTube places on your videos. Many have achieved this and made good money on automatic, and many have tried and struggled.
3. Paid Membership Business - Money earned is from recurring online membership fees (like a gym) in a community you build online, providing value to members.
4. Print-On-Demand Designs - Companies like Printful or Teespring lets you upload designs to their platform, which sells products like T-shirts, blankets, mugs, etc. Orders placed are sent out by the company, and profit is yours with no cash out of your pocket.

I imagine..
... doubters and naysayers will balk at the possibility of money growing while asleep but I know it's possible from the examples of the many who achieved it. So that's where I'm headed knowing without a doubt that if they can do it, I can too if I work hard at it, commit to time learning with my "why" in my head throughout the journey.
But, that's me. Jus' Sayin'
I imagine..
...how the sleeping couple feels, at peace without waking to the buzz of the morning alarm.
...knowing they don't work for money with the security of having money work for them. It's the ultimate dream.
I imagine..
they will have worry-free minds and unfettered commitments free
to spend quality time
with the ones they love.
I imagine..
they will be grateful for their blessings and not only have the desire but also the power to make a positive difference.
I see a future of possibilities for the next generation and my grandchildren with new ways of learning and conviction of purpose to make a difference.
