What is the Difference between revenue and capital gains?
Revenue is income from labor, services, etc. Usually it is taxed at the highest rate. Capital gains is income from buying a stock or a house at one price and selling it at a profit. Usually it is taxed at a lower rate due to the fact that some of the capital gain is due to the government printing money or expanding the money supply. In other words, you by a house and sell a house for more, but you really just have enough money to buy another house, that is more money but not more purchasing power. Where it gets tricky is in hedge funds where the manager is paid a management fee out of capital gains. It has similarities to revenue, but is taxed at the lower capital gains rate.
