Please don't refer to an investment as "income". It hurts the ears of those of us who know a little accounting.

I have no objection to, "half a million in cash sure helps you . . "

I understand that.

However review my last month or so of post history for my views on earned/employment income, unearned income and asset income.

In essence I differentiate between revenue within income, but not income/investment. I don't think taxes should either. Specifically, I think capital gains/intermingling of asset taxes while requiring up to date taxed-upfront employment taxes is one of the worst decisions society ever made.
