A paycheck and a business are taxed differently

Money from a paycheck and money from something you own are not treated the same by the tax rules. The difference is part of understanding how earnings work.

Learn the rules that apply to the money you actually earn. This is a reason to know the law. It is not a way around it. The rules still apply to you.

Use it. When you have a new kind of income, read the rule for that kind before you spend it. If you are unsure, ask a qualified tax preparer.
