That's small time. There is a pastor near me who owns his own airport. With a Private Jet and a few other planes. The Airport his ministry is built on was a old Air Force Base. You could land Air Force One there LOL! Kenneth Copeland. Of course I voted no. If he wanted a brand new car for his wife a 80k chevy tahoe is just as good as a Italian SUV. [/quote] You all do understand that these pastors pay next to nothing in income taxes, and property taxes? The church, a tax free "entity" owns almost all this stuff. If I really wanted to be a tax cheat, I could take the weekend training to become a "strip mall pastor", then place everything I own under my "church". Heck, maybe I will do that in conjunction with getting my international yoga certification in 2019?? I will be a spiritual "minister"(sarcasm). Le sigh .... it all pisses me off. [/quote] Good Point why not own a airport if you don't have to pay tax on the property . [/quote] Exactly. Get your weekend "ordination" cert, then put your house, cars, investment, BTC, whatever in a trust under the name of your "church" (of course, you own the trust in its entirety). Then I could have Mr. LJS donate his entire gross income to my "church" -- he takes a full charitable deduction, owing nothing, and we get everything tax free -- including if I chose to cash out an investment for something. Major scam. :redface: [/quote]
