🌟🌟🌟I would adopt a hybrid strategy which is :  My main job to provide a stable income and add in side gigs like giving tuition to provide an additional income.  Plus   upskilling my knowledge in investing and invest in dividend ETFs to provide a passive income.  That way I have the best of both worlds.

As Warren Buffett likes to say :  "Never depend on a single income.  Make an  investment to create a second source."

He also said :

"If you don't find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die."

Therefore my main job is my active income engine while my investments are passive income.

In Investing, Would You Rather Build Skills or Take the Easy Route?
Recently, a programmer in Singapore shared his experience online after calling an electrician. The repair took just 40 minutes but cost him S$300, which translates to S$450 per hour. But look closer, high hourly pay ≠ high income. From an investing perspective, this looks a lot like high-volatility assets. Would you choose: A. To upskill yourself and take on side gigs? In investing: sharpen stock-picking ability to capture high-return stocks. B. To stick with your main job and easy way to get stable income? In investing: add high-dividend stocks, and reinvest dividends.
