You can however invest in some of these companies like Plumb Creek (PCL) that happens to be the largest land and timber company in the US. A Pinchot plan is named for the first US Gov't Forester who ran the Vanderbilt lands and forests. The Pinchot plan allows great tax breaks if you buy lands that are geared for raising and management of timber and the lands. Not only can you raise the timber, but you can manage the lands for wildlife with another great tax break, by also getting conservation easements recorded on the land, which the environmenatal groups will pay you for this easement or right. Not only can you get these tax breaks, you can get Williamson Acts tax breaks from your local county that reduces the land value you are taxed on by 75%. Not bad so far. Now you can also take in investors and so on so it is a plan that has no end. If you buy 1000 acres of good timber lands, this is a start and you keep adding as you need tax breaks and income from the land and timber.

I am retired and looking for ways to make money fast. I don't have any real money and this seems like a good way to invest since it requires small investments of as little as $50.00. How does this plan work? Could you e-mail me details on how to get started? Thank you so very much.Ruby I have been reading about the Pinchot Plan, seems too good to be true.
