If by any chance being the important words. The integral words.

Keeping in mind that if I sell my gear to make this money, i'd lose the strength I use to actually earn mesos to be 'rich'. Stupid argument, herp derp.

Yet it's something that is considered income, since it's mutually a way to make money, and to spend it.

You can get new gear, or scroll it yourself. If you are successful in scrolling something, you can sell your old gear to recover that money, or even make a profit, depending on how the scrolling went. That makes it something that can get you income from, it's not that much of a twist.

Of course, that rules out untradeable stuff. That's a one way inversion.
