Passive income: NO

Earning passive income from a glazier side hustle is challenging. Most glaziers earn actively by installing and repairing glass, which requires hands-on work. To make it passive, one would need to establish a business with systems for automation and outsourcing, such as hiring a team to handle operations. However, this is rare and typically only achieved by a few who scale their business significantly. Most people in the community, as seen on forums like Reddit and YouTube, continue to work actively. Misleading expectations often involve underestimating the effort needed to build a passive system. Realistically, it becomes passive for those with strong business acumen and resources to invest in scaling, not for those just starting or working solo.
