EC GLOBAL FORUM – PASSIVE INCOME
“Give a serving to seven, and also to eight, For you do not know what evil will be on the earth.”
Ecclesiastes 11:2 (NKJV)
True financial freedom cannot be achieved without passive income and a diversified economic engine. Some entrepreneurs work many years in pursuit of financial freedom, only to trade their jobs for a business that is not only ever-consuming but also feels like a trap with an unclear exit strategy. This global Forum is not just for entrepreneurs, it is also for all those who truly want the freedom to worship and serve God with their time, talents, and treasure.
In this Forum you will:
- Learn why passive income is key to developing sustained freedom
- Hear how others have achieved passive income by leveraging their job and/or business income.
- Learn about resources that will enable you to realize your passive income goals.
