Irrespective of the industry or sector you’re working in, it will pay to know (pun intended) the various income streams that you can open up. There is a lot you can achieve with diligent planning and a little bit of help from a trustworthy app like Cube Wealth.
In fact, a proper investment strategy and the perfect portfolio can help you set up a combination of one or more of these income streams and build more wealth for the future.
In this blog, we’ll discuss 7 different income streams for investors in more detail so that you can identify the ones that you can conveniently make use of. Let’s start off with the most popular income stream - a salary.
You already know what a salary is but, let’s define it anyway! A salary is a fixed amount of money that you can earn as an employee. It’s termed as “active” income because you have to work to earn a salary.
It is the most popular and in most cases, the primary source of income for a majority of people. However, maximizing the potential of earned income is perhaps the most important aspect of generating wealth that is often ignored by a large number of people.
This is where other sources of income or “passive” income, as they’re popularly known, come into the picture.

When you lend money to any entity, you earn interest which is a small amount of money paid in return for the principal amount. This is interest income in a nutshell.
The interest is fixed and is commonly paid monthly or yearly in most cases. Common examples of this include your bank savings account, Fixed Deposit (FD), Recurring Deposit (RD), etc.
Traditional interest income generators have been underperforming over the past few decades. Bank savings accounts may generate 2.5-3% returns while FDs may give 3-5% returns.
As a result, alternative investment options like P2P lending on Cube Wealth have gained popularity due to:

A dividend is a part of the profits that a company may distribute to its shareholders. It is the company’s way of showing gratitude to its investors and is usually paid on a per-share basis.
Stocks are the most popular dividend income-generating option available to retail investors. However, there are certain mutual funds that generate dividends as well.
Dividends are a classic example of passive income and anybody who has invested in stocks or knows somebody who does has heard about its benefits often.
But the secret lies in selecting the right companies with a strong business model and balance sheet. Cube Wealth helps you with this for Indian and US stocks.

In simple terms, Capital Gains income is the profit earned after selling an asset like mutual funds. Assume you buy units of a mutual fund for ₹10,000 and sell it for ₹12,000. The ₹2,000 profit is the capital gains.
There are 2 aspects to capital gains income:

Rental income can be generated in the form of rent or lease by a property that you own. It’s one of the go-to passive income-generating options in India but requires a large initial investment.
It also carries liquidity issues and a significant upkeep cost. Moreover, the quality of your investment depends on the desirability of the property in terms of location.
Overall, it may not be an income-generating option for everyone but may still be desirable due to a combination of social factors like status and economic factors like capital appreciation.

Profit income can be earned by selling products or services for more than their manufacturing or production cost. For example, you could become a grocery store owner or build a service and sell it for a profit.
This is perhaps the most difficult and high stakes income-generating option on the list because it may require proper funding and/or sourcing goods and ancillary services.
