That's why billionaires make donations to museums: A tycoon purchases a painting for $100,000, keeps it for five years, hires an appraiser who values it at $10 million, donates it to a museum, and claims a tax deduction of $10 million, saving between $3 million and $4 million in taxes with an initial investment of just $100,000.


All perfectly legal.
