Saw a post today about a girl being a “pet psychic” who is apparently super successful. Wondered what other examples are out there.

      this is so dumb… the NFL owners pay for the NFL as an administrative non-profit entity. All the money received is distributed to the NFL owners and the NFL owners pay taxes.

      That’s not really accurate. The NFL gave up their tax-free status in 2015 because the bad PR hurt more than the tax exemption helped.

      But even before that decision, the idea that they weren’t paying taxes was false. The NFL itself was structured as a trade association with 32 members (the teams). Any money generated by the NFL was passed through to the member clubs who DO pay taxes. The NFL itself as an entity had essentially zero income (something like $10 million on $10 billion of league revenue). Literally 99.9% of NFL revenue was taxed as income to each team, and 0.1% was untaxed for the league office itself.
