Yes you are right. Banks give a very small percentage of the profits. Bitcoin can give much more. 3-5% per annum is very small. Losses from inflation will be higher.

Not honestly attractive if you are making a video make sure that your video is entertaining people are always looking for entertainment.. like you have a good voice and you know how to play in guitar just sing there and share it to facebook your video and i am sure it can go viral and become a youtuber and make a large number of subscriber and followers..
As a blogger doing SEO is the best because you can gain organic traffic without for long term.. and make a passive traffic ad income depends how you optimize and monetize your website.. if you know how to cloaking and direct your traffic into exact offer what they are looking for you can gain a commision this is what i do right now.. instead of putting the adsense in my site i just register in big company and display their offer.. and other best conversation offers that can design in my blog that can gives me more commision than adsense or any PPV..

It's funny you're betting on banks on a bitcoin forum.    

I'm not sure if you're aware, but bitcoin was specifically designed to destroy the banking industry.

Investing in banks right now is probably the stupidest thing you could do.

Staring a blog is a good option but for yourube I think your friend is new to there and he has not much viewers and subscribers that is why it is hard for him to earn some profit from youtube videos. If he will continue his struggle for creating more attractive videos and will promote them more then he will find it very beneficial.

Making you tube videos or blogs to earn massive profits is a good idea. I am not against it but it is very troubling. It is troubling because you need to capture the interest of the audience since if you dont build up sufficient traffic for your site you wont be earning hundreds of dollars weekly. When you do that kind of business you must have many gimmicks to promote your video or your webpage so you will earn otherwise you will not earn.

I just started selling music and sound effects on my music store. I earned few bucks since. I'm studying what successful authors sell. I'm building a website too about multimedia content. I also have a YouTube channel currently small with 81 subscribers.

If passive income outside of bitcoin, I want to have a business rented house or boarding. I have learned from my family that owns this business and revenues very well every month at least can get $1000. but to start the business at least I must have capital of about 20-50 btc

I have a flat for renting it gives me 0.4 btc every month 

While this passive income that I got was from car rental, car rental business I got from my parents and was completed in installments. Now it's time to get my passive income. Every day I'm always control the car in the garage, make sure it's all good and no problem.

You are thinking the costs of living over the next year and along the year, sure the income the banks does offer will always be behing the inflation, the things you buy with 50 dollars now will cost you next year 65 dollars. At my vision if you have 1000 dollars at savings and end the year you have 1050 you are making money without any work, any risk  sure inflaction is a heavy thing to consider but you made 50 dollars already doing nothing.

YouTube income is not passive! You are getting money from views, but for that you need some unique content.
Even little things like using copyrighted music in the background can stop you from taking profits from the whole video. It's like writing a blog, you need to dedicate a lot of hours first to reap profits later and while the profits are coming, you may think it's passive, but it's actually the payment for the work you've already done days or weeks before.

Surely it's not easy. The most money makers on youtube are fools saying useless things to the mass. There are some others succesful channels, but most channels won't be successful and won't earn money this way.
And we say a channel about bitcoin what comes in my mind is a channel trying to lure investors into ponzi schemes or any other site with referral link. Many youtubers doing the same things, the success can't come to all this way.

I think it is a very good passive income from a youtubers. dala produce 3k-4k a month is extraordinary income. if it's like that, YouTube is an excellent place to get a passive income, but I am sure it will not be easy as I imagined.

One of my friend decided to do the same thing like to create a youtube channel and upload his videos on that channel but after a longer tme he tod me that it is very hard to work on there and to collect some create videos and still he is earning nothing. I think it is better to create a blog and start earning from there with any good ad network.

Yes, passive income must generate more income than what we are losing through inflation. Some country people are happening accepting less than 7% passive income trades and unfortunately people will people keep on their faiths. But over period of times, they will start regretting. Passive income through clod mining will be near future revolutions but it is highly dependent of how much mining difficulty will be increasing on next retreatment  of hash power.

Treasury bonds outperform inflation in the long run

Otherwise, no one would be buying then. T-bonds come in a few varieties, and some of them (TIPS specifically) aim at outpacing inflation by adjusting their value depending on current inflation rates. I guess the interest paid on these (or the principal change as is the case with the TIPS bonds) may be pretty well considered as passive income. And yet more so if you take into account the longer term bonds such as, say, 30-year maturities

Events like 2008, specifically, may be fairly uncommon, but banking scandals are actually quite common. The 1980s was mired by the Savings and Loan scandal that wiped out over 1000 banks. Even currently, some of the largest banks in the world are dealing with scandals. Wells Fargo was caught creating millions of fake accounts under their customers names and then billing fees to the customers without their knowledge. Bank of America is still dealing with the adverse effects of their misconduct during the great recession. Deutsche Bank has been teetering on the edge of insolvency related to their own scandal, and will need to raise capital in order to stay in business.

As for seeing it coming, there were a few who saw it coming and took large short positions (at phenomenal risk) to eventually profit off of the collapse. But they were largely dealing in theories of what should happen based on information they had or theorized should be. It was incredibly speculative. Because of how opaque bank dealings are, the case for saying that people can see a collapse coming if they are paying attention is incredibly thin.

Canada and Australia are two notable exceptions to banks getting hammered by the great recession. But both those countries have much stronger banking regulations. The US, unfortunately, lags in this critical area.

Investment income is on top of you're working income. It's not an either-or choice. Just because you can make $50 easily by working doesn't mean you would turn down making $50 in investment income. It's a question of risk and investment objectives. If you don't want to take on risk, either because that's your nature or because you're near retirement, then you should not be investing in high risk high reward investment scenarios. If you take on high risk in search of high reward, and the venture fails, you haven't exactly done yourself any favors by forgoing the safe $50 profit, have you?

Given that inflation is fast going double digits in most climes, it leaves the 3-5% yield per year dividend worthless and might actually end up in a loss. That is why consideration for investments in assets outside of government control like Bitcoin is now gaining much more attention. the inflation and devaluation that have become regular features with fiat currencies, is not known with Bitcoin.

3%-5% annual yield is an average rate of return, plus these are usually the rates that government bonds and treasury bills also yield. But to make more from passive investments, it should be able to beat inflation year in and year out. Money loses a bit of purchasing power due to high inflation rates. If your investment are able to beat inflation, you are on your way to greater passive income.
