They are currently on the IRS radar due to widespread abuse:https://www.irs.gov/charities-non-profits/conservation-easem...

I have a complex question: Can you use a solo 401k to participate in a land easement/fee simple type syndication where investors pool funds and purchase a property then later donate that property to charity/land trust and not develop the land, to get a tax deduction on W2 income?

It was reassuring reading some of the comments here regarding it being an investment and not a charity.

Here’s the TRUTH - If the entire Federal bureaucracy shut down tomorrow, within two years ll NECESSARY functions would be performed by private sector and private charities, the charities  which would have more than enough money from donations from the public no longer paying taxes to fund the bureaucrats, the congressman and Senators $25 million each in “speaking fees” the waste and fraud currently being exposed that has the political establishment scared to death, as well as not having their savings robbed by the inflation caused by the currency “printing press”.  

I only give to charities that really have value, and are not skimming most of the money for admin.Time is still the most valuable thing most of us have, so spend it wisely. 

Hi, thanks all for your advice.I was feeling bad to directly go for an eviction without a notice, but based on your comment and the fact that is not a charity.

If it crashes hard enough, it impacts your personal finances, your relationships, and even your mental/physical health.With the exceptions of politicians and so-called charities, building wealth typically requires sacrifice and time.

Some people give to charities, you like to give to banks.

Money that could have gone to charity, to education, to retirement, to anything other than Clayton's pocket. 

I feel bad doing this, but I always have to remind myself that I am not a charity.
