Seems to me there are 2 good reasons to have to personally pay taxes on that.
1) If you are personally paying, you're still alive and that's always good. After my surgery that is my default feeling about just about all situations.
2) If you're paying a lot of tax you must have made a lot of money. Another good thing.
And there is always 3) you get to brag to me about AAPL when I hate apple products. lol
