According to Sayyid Sistani(may Allah lengthen his life) if one doesn't have a fixed job and a regular salary, he must take into account whatever he acquires for a year and if it doesn't get spent in his year's expenses, he should give one-fifth of it as Khums. So it's going to be a distinct "Khumsi Year" for each belonging, possession or finance you may get.
