I have a tengu/JF alt i've been crafting for passive income since I really don't feel he needs to fly anything else.

So far I have:
-R&D x5
-Trade skills for some long-run buy orders and a little speculation
-Basic Research/Manu for keeping a few bpo's cooking

I have been debating with myself about PI. It just doesn't seem very passive to me. Are there any other relatively passive income streams I can tap into?

PI can be very passive. you just lose income the more passive you make it.
With max length extraction cycles pulling one P0 and making one P1 you can get it down to resetting the extraction once a week and hauling once a month. But your monthly income is closer to what you can make in one week with a less passive setup.

Another option for really good passive income is creating cyno/hauling alts and selling them on the character bazaar. If you have nothing left you want to train, do some research on what skills players are looking for on low SP alts. And mass produce alts with that skill set.

I used to play with a guy that did this. he had 3 accounts but one account was just for producing characters to sell. He made enough isk from selling alts off that one account to buy PLEX for all three accounts and still have some isk left over.

you can easily produce an alt worth over 1 billion in 4-6 months. A really good cyno/hauling alt takes about 2 months to train. Not sure what they are selling for at the moment.
