you are limited to 50% of your income so unless his AGI was 40M for the year he can't deduct it all this year


If it's an 8 year buy-out, then that's 2.5M per year, so his AGI would need to be 5M per year. Also, the rest can be carried forward.

Also, my point wasn't that 1 person could afford to pay it all, but that if there was a group of people putting up the money, the total buy-out is highly reduced by the tax benefit.

Let's look at the realistic math problem.

15 million buyout. ? Buyout of another coach to come to LSU

15 million + ? = the amount of money that will be added to all season ticket holders TAF supplement.

If you think 1 person or a few people are going to eat 15 + million you are delusional. This will cost every ticket holder. So that UL Monroe game you get so fired up about just had a bunch tacked on it.

Hey GrandDad. Why are you speaking with the language of an angsty anarchist college dropout?

most people, even with 20mm to throw around, don't earn that in one year

There are limits to how much you can deduct, but they're very high.
For most people, the limits on charitable contributions don't apply. Only if you contribute more than 20% of your adjusted gross income to charity is it necessary to be concerned about donation limits. If the contribution is made to a public charity, the deduction is limited to 50% of your contribution base. For example, if you have an adjusted gross income of $100,000, your deduction limit for that year is $50,000.

if buyout is paid over time, what would the interest on this donation be?

It's payable over 8 years too so TAF will be collecting interest on the money
