   Reminder about modern "art":
   
   - Rich faggot commissions his nephew to make "art" for $20K
   - Rich faggot has his cousin appraise the "art" at $2M
   - Rich faggot donates the "art" to a 501(c)(3) "art museum" as a "charitable contribution"
   - Rich faggot deducts $2M on taxes
   
   And yet one can hardly fault him when seeing how tax money is handled.

     @gray I'm guessing the trick is that you have to be an insider to know which ones will sell for a high price and which ones won't.

     @victor have you seen that Masterworks investment thing YouTubers shill a lot? You buy a portion of a piece of art they own and you get a percentage of the return when and if they sell it.

     • Rich faggot uses a portion of the money not paid into taxes for campaign contributions to politicians who support raising taxes to temporarily patch-up the crumbling infrastructure from people who cannot afford to purchase “art.”
