Vanity: Information on the legitimacy of Weil Foundation?
Vanity ^ | 9/3/2005 | Me

My girlfriend has asked me to do some research on the "legit" or "bogus" undertakings of Dr. Andrew Weil via his Weil Foundation.

The basic story is that she was impressed all of his "after-tax" profits go to his foundation. I remarked that was a nice way to pay yourself a lump sum (gotta pay the SG&A) without looking like a greedy, capitalist pig.

After browsing Google for a bit, I'm not finding any substantial detail, just the usual "rah rah rah" stuff.

Anyone already know about this character and his foundation? Your information would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Be careful -- he might spend all the donations on Valerian Root, Gotu Kola, Kava Kava, and a ton of McDonald's breakfast foods.
