What actually happens is most of it doesn’t.

An assumption on your part.

This discussion exists in a vacuum of facts.

Well, given that he makes well over a million a year, and therefore almost definitely has an accountant, what I said above is a virtual guarantee.

Unless you think he told his accountant “please maximize the taxes I pay to the federal government”. Like, I agree that the house discourse is pointless, but it’s also ridiculous to say that that kind of income won’t convert to wealth quickly and easily.

Yeah, that’s why people are making reasonable assumptions. That’s why I use words like “probably” and “likely”.

I never said that, so that’s good

This whole thread of argument started with you pointing out the distinction between income and wealth. The whole point of this argument is that with that much income, it easily becomes wealth.
