It is one of those guaranteed certainties in life: paying taxes. Yes, taxes are due if you earn or gain financial benefits.
If we gain something, we should expect a tax. It is not solely associated with revenue. As a leader, expect your employees to have higher expectations of you. The politician in public life is scrutinized beyond the average person’s standards, and as a superstar idolized, assume to be taxed by paparazzi and adoring but intrusive followers.
Your position and good fortune include unique demands beyond those applicable to others. With the stature and role, you have benefits, and with that obligations, you should expect that there will be taxes.
