God this Bernie bro answer is the worst. I donate and I don’t cheat on my taxes. You’re just a cheapskate. Buzz off.


NP here. Why are people who don’t give to charity cheap? I vehemently disagree with that assessment. Where does it say that charitable donations are required?

You don’t have to give “to charity” e.g. a 501(c)(3) to not be cheap. But obviously if you don’t find ways to give, at all, you’re not a good person.

In what universe is a person who doesn’t feel any obligation to give a good person? That’s like, the definition of a good person.

Maybe you would be less upset if you were more generous and wouldn’t feel so called out by a plainly true statement like, tight-fisted people who give nothing are not good people.

Major reading fail. You don’t have to give to a religious institution, in fact, I agree they are all scams. No one is stopping you from donating 10% of AGI to charity. You pick.

Take it in the spirit it’s meant unless you are just looking for excuses to not donate. The word just means 1/10th. It’s genesis Can be the church.

We’re not religious but give 5% to various charities each year. My goal is 10% and have 7% budgeted for 2021. Our family is fortunate (UMC) and feel that we have a responsibility to give.

I used to tithe about 3-5% to the Church, but stopped years ago when they started to dip their toes is political/social issues. I give that money to organizations who support those causes instead.

I also donate 15 hours a week to two causes I care deeply about. I find time is as valuable as money if offered in a meaningful amount.
