Hello,
My partner and I are considering investing in the Permaculture Credit Union as we are taking over finances for his ill father. We have been talking to a local financial adviser, but we keep in mind that his and our values are very different, ours being straight along Permaculture Ethics lines and very simple.
My question is this:
Does anyone have any input on investing in things from a Perm. Ethics point of view, but that would also save us from having to pay a lot of federal income tax (we are in the US)?
Our financial adviser seems to think that his company is perfect for us, since they try to avoid for us to pay taxes (by finding tax deferred things to put our money in) and they invest in things other than the stock market. But a lot of what the co. invests in is not simple and is questionable ethically or at least convoluted.
We simply would rather put it in a PCU or a jar in the ground, or buy land,
or some other ethical investment but those things incur tax payments yearly....(except the jar)
Any thoughts?
We appreciate this input as we are wading into this unfamiliar territory.
Thanks,
Isabel Crabtree
