Make sure you find one that has already achieved financial freedom. You can learn swimming from someone who can swim, right?

No you are not. You are asking great questions. The simple answer is that, you provide value and in return you get your freedom. Don't let the word "passive" in passive income fool you though. You are still very much actively providing value. However, with the use of technology, your employees etc, you are providing it without being fully engaged in it perhaps.
The best advice I can give is figure out what you love to do and become an expert in it. I know this sounds like a cliche, but it is not. There are lots of people who know a little about a lot of things, but very few "experts" in various fields. You gotta love what you do. Otherwise, you will never be able to push through and become an expert. Once you become an expert, people will recognize that and you will have more than you can handle in your hands.
Age is no issue here. You can be an expert at the age of 20 or at the age of 80. What counts is how much you know and what the depth of your understanding is. Being an expert is also a very relative thing. You don't have to be THE number one expert in a field... just enough to rise above most everyone.
