This is based on real life organized crime. If people know things about you that can get you sent to jail for the rest of your life; and they no longer have income because they are being investigated or actually in jail; then you pay them to keep them from talking unless you can kill them without much blowback. Jail is full of greedy criminals who didn't pay for loyalty. The Fed's literally broke the New York Families, because they could get lots of people to roll for an easier sentence. This even bleeds over into the legal world. A law school buddy worked for a waste management company, and they had old mob guys on the payroll. Legacy costs from buying the business and moving the mob out. I'm sure the same was true when Howard Hughes bought Vegas Casinos from the Mob. Even SMU had legacy costs from when they were paying players. One guy got injured and couldn't pay. They cut his payments and he talked. Brought down the whole program. Legacy costs are real.

In a way it's when he became what he destroyed with Gus. Gus was the kind of guy to murder people in cold blood, hurt children, whatever it took for business, and that's one reason Gus made the big bucks. One thing Walt discounts here is I believe this was their first cook as a new business, sure the legacy costs seem steep now, but Gus didn't get to where he was overnight. If they would have ever gotten to cooking 200 pounds a week again he would have been bringing in over $20,000,000 a year, suddenly legacy costs don't seem so bad.

Even Jesse has to correct him in that they’re cooking a fraction amount of meth then they did in Fring’s lab so there was no valid reason besides the legacy cost for Walt to get frustrated with his profit.

Yeah but keep in mind some of those expenses didn't exist for Gus, like he didnt had money laundering fee because he washes His money thru His restaurant and distribution fee was much smaller because again, he used His restaurant's trucks, plus he was making close to 200m per year so 40k per dude didn't feel that bad

Reminds me of the Sopranos when Paulie tells Chris, “ welcome to the big league, kid…”

still amazes me how Walt doesnt see how this is literally his fault him killing Gus in such a way with no plans about what happens next completely backfires

"That's less than with Fring." I would have walked away right there if I was Mike, knowing the kind of person Walt is.

Should have add hair transplant cost as well

if that cost truly existed, there would be virtually no crime. no one would run the risk to run a drug empire for 40k / month.

And this is what Jesse should have known when he started complaining about how much Gus was making compared to them and started stealing product from the lab.

eveyone talks about Walts ego . fair enough. But here Mike springing legacy costs now? This should have been discussed before, not the moment the cash is being split up.

Except a lot of those guys know Walt, Jesse, and Mike. Now they their safety net from Gus is gone, what’s to stop them from snitching from the cops to get a reduced sentence? Mike made a deal with them where they will pay them out what Gus promised them (about $600,000 each, I would estimate, based on Mike’s 1 million being “way more than any of the others” comment by Hank), and in exchange, they stay silent and don’t mention to the cops they know who Gus’s Star cook was. If they don’t pay them, one of the 9 will talk. And some are in federal custody, so not easy to get to them either, although Walt ended up doing so. It wouldn’t have been ongoing, about 5.4 million would have covered all the 9 guys, once that was paid they would stop having to pay legacy costs.

Since the show tried to explain but clearly failed I will try. As Walt pointed out they're essentially being blackmailed by paying for their silence. The guys who've been locked up have valuable information on Walt, Jesse and Mike, so your choice is to either pay them back what they lost and keep them silent, or not pay them which gives them motivation to go to the police in search for a better deal. I'm surprised you couldn't figure that out since the show pretty much spells it out but hopefully you now understand.

You actually are completely allowed and encouraged to tax the money you make from illegal means. The IRS doesn't need to know where the income came from, just that you have declared that is income you are receiving. Many criminals in the United States actually file their taxes with the illegal gain because it's safer than not doing so. In fact the whole reason that one of the biggest gangsters in the United States Al Capone was caught, was because he didn't register any of his illegal gains through the IRS, and so they got him for tax evasion.
