Sounds like a moron, but fixing a toilet once doesn’t make it a job. It’s passive income like an investment
I own a house, got a plumber for replace a cistern was like 30 mins of work, and I did that whilst working!
I own a house. I work and I hire people if I can’t fix something myself. So far I’ve only had to do that once in 4 years. Owning a house is not a job. Landlord literally has “LORD” in the name… kinda hard to defend, friend.
That’s the strangest argument I’ve heard in a while. Owning a house isn’t a job but maintaining one is. Plumbing, electrical, carpentry, roofing, HVAC are all jobs and if you don’t think so you must be one of these Republicans that think a person who gets their hands dirty doesn’t deserve a living wage.
Pay income tax rather than capital gains tax on your house.
Then get back to me.
I paid income taxes, property taxes and since I sold the house I will soon pay capital gains taxes
