Bulldog Club Question

[bsquared24]

If I have $2,000 and I'm looking at maxing out for 2012 what would be the best way? 1k each year, 100 year 1 and 1900 year 2, all 2k in year 2? Just trying to figure out how th years versus amount works.

Option 1: 100 * .008 = .8 for cumulative giving, 1 point for consecutive years, plus 1900 * .012 current pledge = 24.6 points

Option 2: 2000 * .012 = 24 points current pledge

But, as you can see, it's almost awash.

Does the Bulldog Club fiscal year follow the school year (September they August) or the calendar year? If I want to make a contribution for tax purposes does it matter if they receive it in December or January?

on any pledge in that year.

 

[RivaDawg]

It's not a pledge just a contrbution based on tax planning.

you will get the bulldog club credit for 09 b/c anything paid before 12/31/09 goes to your 09 BC points that are used to establish your priority seating in 010.

Maybe I don't understand your question.

 

[RivaDawg]

That answered my question. I didn't know if it would go toward 2010 seating. I just worded the question poorly. Thanks

 

[8dog]

I think can also pledge or pay before a certain date in 2010 and get that credit for 2010 seating as well.

You better not rely on my dumbass. I'd call or consult the manual.

but it sounds like you want a tax deduction for 09 so what I just said would be irrelevant.
