See the other posts above.Originally posted by @Carolyn Fuller:I find trying to slog my way through government regulations to be a bit overwhelming. 

Like the government did with physical gold in the thirties, and the Canadian government is doing now. 

I just don't like to see the government adding all the regulations and significant costs (those systems aren't cheap) as a knee jerk reaction to tragedies. 

You can PM me or send me an email which you can find on my profile because BP won't let me post it here in the body of a message.  

The government does. 

I want to start a nonprofit eventually to help the poor in the USA & other countries, and I'm considering using my own money or receiving government funds instead of relying on donations from people unless they're just rich ****s.

Its a process and a government process at that so be prepared for that.

@Ryan Raven most states don't care if you screw up the management of real estate you own personally.The government does have a problem with an unlicensed person/company screwing up the management of properties they do not own.

Not to get too into the weeds, when you are face to face with someone, you can watch for mannerisms and non-verbal body language.
