A good mix of ETF funds from Vanguard Canada. It has been a very good year for equities, and all I had to do was literally not touch what I had bought.

#23Very proud of this, my first passive income ever: developed an add-on for a popular video game and it's been making me $60/mo. edit: to mention that it bounces around between $1.50 a day to $2.50 a day based on usage

#24Not proud of it, but around $500/mo thanks to 3 white label dating websites. Easy money, no maintenance needed for 2 years now...
Could make much more with some time invested in it!

#25I had a motorcycle which I had bought for 126K INR. I was not using it much except to commute from home to office. I was going to sell the bike, then suddenly this idea clicked. It took few hours to make and host indiarider.com(people can take the bike on rent). Its been two months now, I have made 15K till now, 7K last week.
That's cool, but how do you deal with speeding fines?
I am based in India. There is not much infrastructure to check the speed. You will find traffic police with such equipment only in cities. That too if you are lucky.

You do realise INR == Indian rupees, right?

#27Dividends on stocks.
I've never had an idea good enough to make an app out of, or build a company around. So instead, I started investing a small amount of my paycheck in to my brokerage account. Buying lots of stock in Dividend Kings[1], I've earned $25 this year, with another $20 through October. It's not a lot, but I'm fully thinking long-term.

#28"Administrating" a few servers that are rented out (ie, running apt-get every week and fixing the occasional symlink the tenants break).
-$2000/m in power/space/bandwidth in costs
+$4000/m in fees
Banking a little under ~$1700 after I account for taxes for what amounts to an hour of effort a month.
