I'm getting ready to sell the little place I've lived in the past 15 years, and while there will be some capital gains, it will be significantly less than that.

And honestly, if you make enough on the sale of your residence that you have capital gains and a temporarily higher Medicare premium, it's still new money, money you didn't have before the sale. I mean, really. Complain because you made money.
