Part 5/7:
A critical insight was the importance of setting realistic expectations about passive income. The speaker advised against viewing dividend investing as an immediate or primary source of income before retirement.

He highlighted that passive income is most beneficial in retirement, where it can supplement other income streams, not necessarily a strategy for early retirement or to cover current expenses.
