Passive Income - Work Now, Get Paid Forever!

Stock dividends are a sure way to make passive money online. Look for solid companies that pay high dividends. This method requires an up front investment, but you will be making money off of it for as long as you hold the stock. This works especially well when the economy is down since you can make a lot from the increase in the share price later on as well. Dividend stocks in the long term are a near guaranteed way to make money. Here's a site that lists off dividend stocks and their annual yeild: http://www.dividendstocksonline.com/dividend-paying-stocks/

The best place to look for high dividend yeilds is BDC's, or Business Development Companies. These companies are required to pay the majority of their earnings in dividends and typically yeild over 10% per year! Some examples to look at are: ARCC, KCAP, & AINV.
