Understanding the fundamentals of LLCs and knowing if it's the right pathway for you.
There's a whole craze around setting up an LLC when you first get started. Many people think it's the right thing to do because it's what they're 'supposed to do' or the 'common thing to do.' Well, this isn't right for everyone, and it can sometimes be hard to figure out when it's the right choice for you. In this topic I'm going to break down simple and clear strategies that will help you determine if an LLC is right for you. My main focus will be on strategically forming an LLC and estate plan to give you the right set up for your assets to be protected and possibly achieve tax savings.
