We’re joined by Mike Hoffmann who is better known as Mr. Passive, and he is on a mission to teach folks how to generate passive sources of income with minimal hands-on effort. Just imagine... automatic recurring deposits just showing up in your inbox... that’s the dream! But of course it does take some work. Listen as we discuss how much time it takes, how Mike became a vendingpreneur, how the newest vending machines work, how much they cost, the best locations for vending machines, how much you can make, and more!
