Hh glor Mark Zuckerberg and his glor Mark Zuckerberg and his wife made headlines last week college pledging to do i gate 99 of thaifer facebook shares. That stock is worth 45 billion right now. Though some have been critical of the move. Here to explain cbs News Business analyst jill sha linger. Why the backlash . This is about the way they form this organization. So most people have a Charitable Organization that is called a 501c3. Zuckerberg formed something called a limited liability company. It offers more flexibility. Yes, that company can gich to charity but it can also make donations to politicians, to lobbyists, and actually invest in forprofit ventures. But the critics are saying hey, its not actually subject to irs rules about charity. They dont even have to give away a certain percentage of their assets every year. Glor on the subject of the irs there are Tax Advantages here. Yes and no. And i think it was interesting. Zuckerberg really did defend this position saying look, im not a tax doarnlg. And hes right. An llc, whether it gives money to charity or he himself gives it to charity, there is a tax deduction. There is also this talk about well, hes giving appreciated shares in facebook and he wont pay tax on that. Well, that would be the case if any of us did that with a mutual fund that we owned. So it is not a tax dodge, hes right. There are Tax Advantages always to giving to charity. Glor whatever you think of it, it does seem to be a new trend in philanthropy, right . Certainly around the Silicon Valley billionaire set. Because what seems to be handing here is they like this blended approach where there is some charity but there is forprofit and there is some lobbying arm here. The thing thats really interesting to me is that they want more account ability. They say they want to give their dollars and maximize those dollars and this structure will do it.
