Recreational vehicle purchase for volunteer work tax deduction?
Q. I want to buy a RV and will use it 100% for volunteer activities. Can I write it off as an expense. I want to deduct the full purchase price or maybe depreciate it. If not, can I incorporate as a private non-profit and then deduct it that way?

A. The IRS is not going to be pleased about this if you deduct the full purchase of your RV. They will think you're stealing from them. Only if you come up with at least 2 percent in extra deductions out of your pocket. This will account for your supplies, the equipment that you will use, the food, mileage, or other extra-curricular activities your volunteering work needs. You are actually creating a business this way. If the business is for non-profit, then more of your monetary proceeds will go to your cause and can get written as a write off. You also have to pay tax too if you are only giving 10 percent to your volunteering cause and the rest of the 90 percent is given to you. You can open barbecues in front of grocery stores for… [cont.]

Is there someone that helps you buy a new/used car like the way Realtors help you buy real estate?
Q. Ok, so I was wondering the other day- there are realtors out there to help you in the buying process of real estate, so is there such a person out there that could help you in the buying process of a car and any other recreational vehicle? My husband and I thought about it, and really didn't know if there was even such a person that existed- BECIDES the car salesman that works for the dealership? Someone that would not take a cut of commission from the sale? A complete third party that is truly there to assist you in getting the best deal and looking out for YOUR best interest instead of the dealerships? My question is to you guys, is there such a person out there? If not, for freaking bananas; why doesn't someone start up this business? [cont.]

A. some banks actually have people working with them that help do this,they help you get financed,and because they work for the bank they only get payed by the bank or lender,not all banks have caught on to this yet ,but some of the larger ones are doing it,and it makes it a lot easier for anyone to get a loan,all you have to beware on this is the interest rate you get,sometimes it can be pretty high,your right though ,someone should open up a business like this,they have them for everything else,it would be worth doing,but still they would have to charge a fee,other wise they couldn't stay in business,good luck on it.

Paint a vehicle yourself?
Q. How feasible is it to paint a vehicle yourself? We have an old school bus that we would like to fix up into a camper (sounds ghetto, LOL, but we actually like fishing and other outdoor activities so it is a perfect idea to put this otherwise useless vehicle to use). The thing is, we want to make it look nice and not so "trailer-parkish." It does not have to look PERFECT, but it should look nice have a somewhat quality appearance. I am experienced in the actual conversion and electrical aspects of turning this bus into a recreational vehicle, but have never attempted to paint one. How feasible is it to paint a vehicle yourself as opposed to taking it to a body shop? Is it worth the investment of buying painting equipment to do this… [cont.]

A. i painted a van myself. i used a cheap sprayer and it turned out allright. it is a good 20' paint job, any closer, and you can see some runs, etc. instead of buying an automotive paint, i used a product from benjamin moore called aliphatic acrylic urethane. it is a two part epoxy that is chemically VERY similar to auto paint. it should cost a lot less than auto paints. it might be worth checking out. i painted 3 years ago, and there is no fading, etc. looks great! you can order from most benjamin moore dealers, find one online at it might be worth checking into, and it was fairly easy to work with.
