I just read this post by GolbGuru on his blog Money, Matter and More Musings about how long it takes for some people to make $1000.

What really got me thinking though was this post by Steve Pavlina on a somewhat related subject about working for an hourly wage, and why it is — or can be — a bad thing.

I have to admit that my current hourly rate isn’t too bad these days being a software developer, but I’m looking for a more passive income strategy where making a thousand dollars will equate to a couple of hours a week worth of work. Still not several minutes like the celebs, but not bad either!
