For passive income, there has never been any ten year period where stocks didn't make money. On average, the Dow returns 7.4%.
Stocks are on sale right now. They are underpriced to the point you're almost guaranteed to have big gains over the next five years, probably really starting to grow in about 13 months.
Agreed
I don't really expect anything under 5k to provide truly passive income

Recurring income is more what I mean to say

Buying when everyone else is running screaming is a great idea .. always is .. stocks or real estate or anything -- I just don't know what to buy and know that the markets are very complex
