Unfortunately, personal income has nothing to do with recession. It is not one of the components measuring a recession. Mostly it's GDP, and personal income is not part of that.

It's not Bill, but it's an indicator. If income is rising AND inflation is under control then there is more disposable cash out there. Generally you don't have a recession when people have more disposable cash.
