    I have never had anyone sit down and explain things like this before. I have asked and asked and asked numerous people how I need to structure my business and all anyone ever says is an LLC. I learned more in 30 minutes from you than I have in years of asking people, including accountants. Thank you for being real and honest!

    When you're a sole proprietorship: You earn, you're taxed, then you spend When you're a business: you earn, you spend, then you're taxed This alone has really opened my eyes.... Also everything else you explained, Literally the best explanation I've ever found As for the separate tax return... Not much different then doing a schedule C which is also separate and tax preparers charge more for that too

    I really appreciate the explanation for the different entities. Wife and I trying to start investing in real estate, we are both W2 employees in the higher end of the bracket. We also do stock investing providing another source of income. We currently don't have a structure, what do you think of having two LLCs (one each of RE and Stocks) being in a holding company LLC taxed at C-corp? Want to avoid any non W2 income to be taxed at the higher bracket and limit it to the 21% corporate rate. Thanks

    Hi Toby. I have a question regarding S vs C corp. Our family has a side business which we do not rely on for living expenses. Would a C corp be a better option for us, since we use the money as “fringe benefits “ and paying for incidental expenses (car repairs, insurance deductibles, etc). Our accountant wants to convert our C corp LLC to an S corp LLC.

    I've heard of people layering entities, with an C-corp as a holding company, and an LLC or S-corp as the operations arm that deals in the day-to-day money flow. Is there an advantage to layering like that? For instance, if I'm interested in setting money aside to buy a competitor, or maybe expand my own business if a big contract comes in and I need to hire engineers to get the job done. Thoughts? I'm about to file for something... LLC, S or C within the week [Engineering / AI-ML data company with 5 principles]. Typical contact = 5-6 digits.
