unearned income (from real estate)

Examples from the Internet (not verified by PONS Editors)

In a correctly functioning market for managers, that should be at least partially true.

But no market is perfect, meaning the top incomes of some executives are at least partly “ unearned. ”

The problem, though, is that it is virtually impossible to judge from outside where that applies and where not.

Auf einem funktionierenden Markt für Manager dürfte das zumindest teilweise zutreffen.

Allerdings ist kein Markt perfekt, so dass die Spitzeneinkommen so mancher Manager ohne Zweifel mindestens teilweise « unverdient » sind.

Allerdings ist von aussen kaum festzustellen, wo dies der Fall ist und wo nicht.
