If you are making more money than you spend it is a good idea to think about investing that extra cash, since we live in a world where money is constantly losing its value, so if you do not invest it you lose it.
Most of us are working 9 to 5 and spending all evenings and weekends looking for new investments, and constantly reinvesting money is not for everyone thus many people are looking for investments where they can invest in the long-term without needing to constantly adjust their investments and such investment is called passive investing.
In this article, we will explore the best passive investing types that require little capital.
Before we jump into exploring passive investment types, let’s understand what is passive investing.
Investing can be split into two types passive and active. Passive investing is a buy-and-hold investing strategy where investors invest and expect to make returns from an asset's long-term development.
Active investing is an investment approach when investors make money from price fluctuation meaning investors buy assets for short-term periods during which a certain event is expected and after an event happens investors sell assets hoping that the mentioned event has positively impacted asset price.
