However, there are big tax benefits at his level in doing so and it’s not just his initial investment. But more-so, it’s PR capital. Sure, he probably feels good about it too. But really, I doubt if many of these athletes or actors or any celebrity that is clearly a “look at me, want me, love me” personality (again, Seinfeld. ) would do much at all if they didn’t benefit. There are plenty that do TONS...but receive very little PR about it. They are the real quiet social justice warriors that do much more for their cause and should be held up on the pedestals, not these “Kardashians”. ’Murica! Sure want to make the argument he does it to raise his public profile and therefore make more money, there might be some truth in that but the reality is many of these athletes give back with very little publicity.

So my wife doesnt write off her business expenses youre saying? Tell me what else she doesnt do? Let me make it simple for you.... If she makes 500g....and her expenses are 250g She payes tax on 250g Whats so hard about that for you to understand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
