for you guys who think an LLC can be created for ONE person. I have a letter from the IRS that shows you must have TWO to make a LLC legit
I tried to attached letter from IRS to a customer of my accountant (He whited out the client info so he could share it) I can not post it here as i no longer am a paying member
Apparently you MUST have at east two partners to make a LLC legit

That's incorrect. You must have at least two partners to have a partnership, but not a LLC. Single member LLCs are very common. SMLLC's are great because they are disregarded for income tax purposes so a separate tax return is not needed. All activity from the SMLLC is reported on your individual income tax return.

It most definitely is the case. I spoke with two clients today alone about SMLLC's. I am not an attorney so I will not speak to the legal issues, however, comingling funds is generally not advised.

It's a "trend" around those that collect cars.
I don't have an exotic collection, but am looking at alternative choices compared to dealing with Virginia DMV all the time with the 7 we have on the street right now; as well as inspections, and personal property taxes.
Also, I like some of the Montana license plate designs/colors better, (yes, I am that vain).

I also saw somewhere online that once a car is 10 years old you can get permanent tags, pay one fee and the tags are good for as long as you own the vehicle. Also note to get the tags neither you or the car actually have to travel to Montana!

I work in the mortgage business and there's nothing I enjoy more then when self-employed people call to try and get a mortgage and they show no income and I have to tell them they are S.O.L! . Most of them ***** and complain that its not fair the government this the government that and they have to cheat on their taxes to make any money.I dont feel bad one bit, I pay my fair share. Theyre not all like this but most are. i have lots of respect for someone who starts their own business but pay your fair share...

Dagah2x.... I pay way more than my fair share. I think 40% tax bracket is a little crazy. Also, considering I seem to find a boat and only keep it a year or so I think it's absolutely crazy that I would need to pay anywhere from 10-20k in taxes. But, if I trade to a dealer for another boat I can offset it buy trade in. WTF?
Considering this great nation is currently divided and only getting worse everyday by lazy a$$ people that want everything for nothing has turned me to be greedy . You just keep paying your fair share to help all those losers and I will do what I can to protect mine from the losers. As long as these idiots in charge are spending out of control it's a lost cause.

Tombone, I totally agree with you money is all green at the end of day. If, I was in the mortgage business I would not give 2 chits where the persons money was coming from if I only get paid to close deals. I would say he might be on a wic card or some government assistance with this comment?. Just sayin !
