What is passive income and how can ETFs help?
Property investors often talk about using debt to build wealth. In the share market, that's called gearing.

You did say off-air to me that you noticed that when we talk about income on the show, the people love it.
How do you evaluate income from ETFs beyond just yield?
It gets the people going, so to speak. Absolutely. Yeah, we're going to be talking about all different ETFs. I've got some framing for people that may be new to the whole ETF and income concept, just in case. We don't want to leave anyone behind. Let's start off with when we think about the idea of income investing, what does that even mean?
Yeah, sure. I think the idea of income investing generally, I think most people would be familiar with income from stocks. I think that generally people understand that a company can pay out shareholders through different means, whether that's buying back their own shares, but also distributing out that profit or earnings in the form of a dividend. I think that's a common form of income investing that most people would be familiar with.
Apple does really well. They pay you a dividend.
That's right. Yeah. And so, we tend to see companies in Australia generally having higher dividend payout ratios or the amount of the dividend being higher because the nature of those companies, you know, generally lends itself to become more stable in their distribution profiles.
