Category 9
Leasing income
You own a physical asset and lease it to an operator who puts it to work.
Everything in this category is paid the same way, so what separates one page from the next is the wrapper rather than where the money comes from: how much it takes to start, how quickly you could turn it back into cash, who does the work, how it is taxed, and how it fails. The line on each card says whether the income keeps arriving once it is set up or whether somebody has to keep working for it. If the mechanism itself is new to you, the course spends a whole lesson on it and is a shorter way in than any single page here.
Vehicle Leasing
You buy cars, vans or trucks and lease them to businesses or drivers; the rent recovers the vehicle's cost plus a finance charge, and the value at lease end is your profit or loss.
Read →Aircraft Leasing
You own a commercial aircraft or engine and dry-lease it to an airline, which pays monthly rent plus maintenance reserves and must return the asset in a contractually defined condition.
Read →Equipment Leasing
You buy a piece of business equipment and give a company the right to use it for a fixed term; you keep title and collect rent, and the machine's value at term end is yours to sell or re-lease.
Read →Construction-Equipment Rentals
You own excavators, lifts, generators or attachments and rent them to contractors by the day, week or month, with service, transport and damage all landing on you between jobs.
Read →Medical-Equipment Leasing
You buy a diagnostic or treatment device and lease it to a hospital, clinic or physician practice, collecting fixed rent under an agreement that healthcare referral rules tightly constrain.
Read →Shipping-Container Leasing
You own marine cargo containers that are hired to ocean carriers and shippers at a daily per-diem rate, with a manager handling depots, repairs and repositioning.
Read →Railcar Leasing
You own freight cars — hoppers, tank cars, gondolas, autoracks — and lease them to the shippers whose commodities move in them, for rent per car per month.
Read →Boat and Recreational-Equipment Rentals
You own a boat, RV, jet ski or trailer and rent it by the day or week through a marketplace or a charter fleet, earning gross bookings minus commission, cleaning and repair.
Read →Furniture Leasing
Furniture is rented rather than sold — to relocating professionals, corporate housing, staged homes and rent-to-own customers — and the income comes from packages placed, delivered and cycled.
Read →Server and Data-Center Equipment Leasing
You buy servers, storage, networking or accelerator systems and lease them to a business, or host them in a colocation facility and rent the capacity, on terms short enough to outrun obsolescence.
