The definition of earnings is too nuanced, deliberately so. You would need to implement via a Wealth Tax rather than an Income tax.
Why would I need to implement a wealth tax? I do not wish to tax their wealth, just what they earn on it.

If they use it to fund companies investment etc I have no problem with it. Unearned income is where the money is just used as an investment and taxed at 20%. Don't forget no tax relief just like those on PAYE don't have now.
