I do not really believe in passive income in blue chips and REITS etc. It is not difficult but a person has to actively monitor and manage these. It gets harder as one gets older and needs to rely more on the passive income vs a salary for expenses.

I feel that the success in those financial blogs is because we have had a long run without a depression in the markets.

Also, if someone has 2M, its advisable to break that down to different asset classes and also maintain some cash for emergencies and also for a war chest which means that it will not be a straight 4-6% yield for the entire amount.
