ENOUGH ALREADY!!!! I have a legitimate question. The personal savings rate has fallen off a cliff in charts i have seen. Isn't this calculated as earned income minus spending? So if I spend all my earned income, sell a stock for a 200% gain and put this in a T-Bill, my savings rate is zero. Is this a realistic way to calculate savings?
