When You Should PIG Out It’s not greedy to use a “pig” when you’re talking about investment strategies designed to reduce income tax liability. In this instance, the term refers to a “passive income generator” (PIG). Depending on your situation, you might invest in a PIG to maximize the tax benefits. Briefly stated, income from a PIG can absorb prior passive activity losses and is essentially tax-free up to the amount of the total loss, despite certain tax law restrictions.

It also means that additional paperwork needs to be filled out and additional taxes need to be paid. The simplest option when deciding to augment your workforce is to have the new worker invoice the business, based on hours worked or some other formula.
