Marvel at the beauty of Michael Moore's 10,000 sq ft summer mansion!

Cite your source, please. We don't like plagiarism around here.

You do understand that what you just cited shows that there is a zero profit margin at the end of the fiscal year?

The very same link that my friend provided me to try to show me what a non profit is!

Same here. I feel like I just stumbled into a poker game where everyone plays the same and think they are expert. Thank God I don't gamble, though. :lol:

Reality is not subjective. People are subjective in how they interpret reality.

Reality is what it is. It is people who try to spin it.

Wow. That is pretty reckless investing. No wonder people lose money and get robbed. I read over every statement, research every new company and get alerts when changes are made. *shrug*

that's what online trading sites like ameritrade and etrade are for. You are free to invest in whoever you want at your own choice.

but I don't want to deal with that and I want to get rich by the time I retire and be part of 1% :lol: and that's what mutual fund is for. Put in money and forgetaboutit :cool2:

people lost money because they are clueless on how to invest. that's why my brother laughed at the thought of online trading sites. pros? you get to trade yourself from your home without using middle man. cons? since too many clueless people are in it like it's casino festival, the volatility of stock market is greater. nobody got robbed.

a small yay... I just checked - my net change since previous quarter has gone up by $514.00. what a piddly amount. and no I do not know what companies my money was invested in for that gain but it's of no concern to me and same for Michael Moore. To continue harping on his Halibourton stock is nothing but a silly trifle in attempt to silence him when he is right on big picture.

delicious.

Reality is subjective. It doesn't exist without interpretation.

I believe that Warren made a fortune because he knew the insurance industry inside out.
 
This is rather amusing. Provision in the IRS does not prohibit profits! They just limit the use of those profits.

Jillio, will you just not agree with anything that shakes up your worldview? That's a religious-like faith towards politics!

I spent too many years expanding my world view. Perhaps you should try the same. Yours is extremely narrow.

it's because his wealth came from old stocks... like Coca Cola. took him a long time to get to this point.

ALL Non Profits make money. Every. Single. Last. One.

Good info on getting a 501c3 non profit started:

"Nonprofits can also make money in ways that aren't related to their nonprofit purposes. Such unrelated business income is permissible and often essential to the survival of nonprofit organizations. "
