Investing isn't a charity, its a business.

That's the same question I've been asking myself the last year :p Still super fun though.I recommend: save 10%, donate 10% to charity, and spend 80% of the money on the things you and your brother truly enjoy or have always wanted to do.

They then have more opportunities to frequent local business, contribute to charities and enhance the economy of The Dalles.

@James DeRoestIf you can't absorb the time or the $40 to process  an application then you ain't got much of a business and a charity would be letting the house rent-free.On that note why don't we charge job applicants the cost of setting up and running their interview - after all it's the cost of running a job and most employers aren't charities either.Aside from that the last thing I need is some disgruntled applicant lobbing a brick through a  window in my property because they've had their money kept and been jerked off by some anodyne rejection letter.

Their insurance or some charity will ensure they get a hotel room for the immediate future. 

I did my last one this past December and we were on track until I realized I had been neglecting charity. 

You have to keep these things in mind and remember you are a business first not a practice or charity.

In AZ if you had a mortgage with less than a $200k balance; the interest, property taxes, and state income tax could be lower than the standard deduction(2015 is $12,600), assuming you are married- unless you give A LOT of money to charity.  

I think I saw something on the meetup website about a "flipping for charity" event sometime very soon?
