Diversification is key to building passive income because it allows you to create multiple streams of income. This way, if one stream dries up, you have others to fall back on.

Diversification also allows you to hedge your bets against inflation. If you have all your eggs in one basket, and inflation goes up, the value of your basket goes down. But if you have a diversified portfolio, some of your investments will go up in value, offsetting the loss from the inflation.

Diversification is also important because it allows you to take advantage of different market conditions. For example, if the stock market is down, you can still make money by investing in real estate .

The bottom line is that diversification is the key to building passive income . By spreading your investments across different asset classes , you can protect yourself from risk and maximize your chances of success .

It is easy to make active income, you work for a month and you receive a salary at the end of the month, or you work on a contract and you receive payment after the job is done. It is also easy to diversify your active income. For example, you can do side hustles even when you have a regular job. For example, you can go to your workplace and work 9-5, and then in your spare time, you can drive for uber and make additional income. However, generating passive income is not very easy. You will have to do three things, one, invest in the market, build a profitable business, or create a product that constantly sells. All of these things are very difficult for an average Joe. Investment requires a lot of money, and investment can not be 100 percent safe, creating a profitable business is also very difficult, you need to invest as well as work hard.

While most of us have ideas about making active income, the same can not be said about making passive income. People keep talking about ideas to create passive income and some do make it sound quite easy. But trust me it's not a piece of cake. Active money can be made by job ( one or multiple) and even some side hustles along with the regular job. But when it comes to passive income, it mostly depends on the investment and how to grow more money from there. And for any investment that can give you passive income, you need to have good saving to start with. And most of us have that saving coming from our active income. People feel that getting rents from our property is a good source of passive income and I totally agree there. Even to own a property, you need money that you would have saved from your active income. So, we need to have active income to save and invest so that we can generate passive income later.
Diversification of your financial portfolio is a must and it is the wisest thing to do. All financial experts would advise that. Depending on your convenience and situation , you can diversify your portfolio.
