You seem to be approaching making money with a family or home perspective. That is a somewhat different vantage point that incorporates other considerations.
In the pursuit of wealth i think it is of vital importance to create multiple streams of income. This spreads out your risk and means that loss of any one source of income will not result in financial disaster.

Passive income is great because you do the job once and then continue to earn from this for a long time. Royalties, website marketing are good examples of passive income.
