Well, let's say you cannot be employed for more than a certain amount in a year without forfeiting your rights to pension.
But when I put my flat to rent, one of the candidates was a 60+ consultant. He had created a company (of which he was the sole shareholder and employee), that did not pay him much any salary, only dividends... His pension alone was more than the salary of any of the other candidates (and more than the combined salaries of most couples)...
I don't like that. He's working full time, he should not get a full pension. So, the flat did not go to him, but to a couple of more limited resources. I figured that they would find it harder to find one. Earth provides enough to satisfy every man's need, but not every man's greed. Gandhi
Of course, the distinction between dividends and other income is silly to begin with...
