How do people shelter overseas artwork purchases from domestic taxes?
Q. I recently read an article about people who shelter US taxes on art sales by doing transactions using European holding companies. Does anybody know how this works? I've heard of sheltering royalties in Holland, like the Rolling Stones or U2, but how does that work for fine art?

A. The purchase of art is not taxable in the US. There is capital gains tax on the SALE, no matter where the artwork is located in the world. If a holding company buy and sells art and is a foreign corporation, there is no US tax. However, a US citizen's ownership of a foreign company must be declared to the Dept of Tresury and is subject to IRS regulations. If the US citizen receives income from that company, it will be taxed, as US Citizens are taxed on worldwide income. Note that the Rolling Stones and U2 are NOT US citizens.

How does someone open up a rescue group for shelter animals, or adopt multiple dogs and give them to pals/fam?
Q. I want to open my own rescue group or shelter for shelter animals to help reduce the number or animals in shelters, and bring down the number of ethuenizing (sorry bad spelling) even if its just a little, but I don't know what I would need or how I would open one up. Would I have to buy a piece of land and build a kennel or something?

A. This is actually something you need to ask of officials in your area. Because laws, and what *is* or isn't needed varies not only by state, but also by counties themselves. Your best bet would be to talk to someone at your local animal rescue, or local humane society. Ask them in what ways you can help, how to start your own rescue, etc. You might actually find it's a lot less stressful on you emotionally and financially if you donate your time to the shelters already in your area. You could foster dogs in your home, if your home is approved to be fit for the dogs, as well as you as an animal foster mother. Basically you host the dog in yoru home until someone adopts it, or you end up adopting it because you have fell in love with it… [cont.]
