getting away with white collar crime should be at least great tier
>>1430667
White collar crime means that you were in a position to make money legally, ethically or otherwise. So you're either fucking that up by crimeing or crimeing out of necessity because you already fucked up.

It carries some of the lowest punishments relative to money possible
If you commit white collar shit you get like <5 years in a minimum security prison and get released on good behavior usually, added with the fact that most of the time it makes the person millions is great.
A woman in my country stole $800,000 from investors and she got 6 months in prison. Compare that to any other crime that earns a similar amount.
>>1430670
Yes, but now you aren't trusted by investors, are essentially unhireable for top tier jobs, and odds are a lot of your money was seized.
>>1430674
That's true but it still makes it one of the best in terms of risk/reward
>Steal $800,000 from investors
>Get 6 months in min security prison, can't get a job in that field anymore
>Steal $2000 from a gas station at most with a weapon
>5 years minimum in prison

Only if you ignore opportunity cost.

Author here (5 books published, 4 of which have hardcover editions.) I'd put royalties into the "good" tier alongside self-employment income. I've made about $10k in royalties in the past 5 years, but it's "free" money after my initial contract pays were made.
My full time job is sales for a telco, making $24/hr plus 7% of the monthly recurring revenue I take (eg, 8 hour day where I get 15 sales, each of those sales is a $80 average per month, I make $192 in salary plus another $84 in commission.) The commission is just icing on my cake, so I'd also change "commission" from just that to "commission only." Commission on top of a decent salary is pretty good.

I put royalties up at the top because they stack, whether you're a scientist or a writer. When you create something new it's value goes up based on prior success, and your prior work goes up in value based on your new successes. At a certain point it isn't worth it to do anything else with your time if it's for money.
WAGIES REEEEEEEEEE

>not giving wagecucks their own tier, at the bottom of the list
>>1430689
Oh my god I didn't know this was a porn board dis nigga talkin e-co-nomics and getting me ROCK HARD. Say Sowell. I wanna think about big black economics.
>>1430761
Putting it in the same tier as salary even. Fucking abhorrent.
I make base salary and get an 8% commission of the yearly gross of any accounts I get.
one can make anywhere from 50k - 100k + depending on how hard you work.
thoughts?

I don't know about you, but I'd rather be a wagecuck Accountant than a salarycuck accountant. If they want me to work more than 40 hours it'll cost them big.
