      sachmo omhcas - Our team also has LLC's and we have a 7 year plan of no pay to the team/owners/investors. They are humble LLC's but we want to reinvest and not take any profit so we can maximize the company's return back into the businesses. We live minimally but it still feels good 👍

    You answered one version of the question but I believe the question that was actually asked was if you can keep the money in the LLC to delay paying taxes. For example if you invested 10K into it and at the end of the year 100k was left do you have to pay taxes on the say 90k. What if the person wanted to use that extra 90k to grow the business instead of taking a distribution

    • @jimhart
      @jimhart  5 років тому

      Doesn't matter. You are taxed on the income of the LLC, not how much you take out. If you have no interest in taking the money out, then a C-Corp might be an option, because there you are only taxed when you take a salary or dividend from the corporation. But you also are taxed at the corporate level. That's why they say corporations are "double taxed".

    • @salvatorepuccini4261
      @salvatorepuccini4261 5 років тому

      @@jimhart then to clarify, the way to delay or reduce the tax burden would be to invest immediately and take either the deduction or start the process of depreciation. If the person wanted to delay that process to the following year then they would be liable for the 90k of income from the present year.

    I'm getting back into the pro photography business and start-up costs are very high as equipment, advertising, travel are high. I also have to hire a CPA which is expensive. A reasonable salary is $200.00 per hour. I just don't see how one can pay that and then pay taxes on that and also keep money in the businesses account to start. How does one eat and pay bills and stay out of debtors prison until the business shows an actual profit? How long does a business have to show a profit? I have to buy my equipment little by little over a year and a half just to get started before I can afford to start my business. Are those purchases deductable even if I'm not a business for that period...once I do become a business? I would literally have to keep my business account drained just to live for the first few years until my business matures. I lost everything, became homeless, and now just getting back on my feet. Do I go to debtors prison if I can't show a profit because I have to live?

    LLC - - - - topic ideas: not sure if you can cover it since you specialize in the southeastern US. One, there is a loophole many people use to avoid paying license fees on expensive cars. They start an LLC in Montana then register the car to the LLC. Never have to set foot there. I wonder if those doing this have to go all out on their Montana LLC or if they can simply register the LLC, register the car and that's it. Also... I'm reading that many people start their LLC in Delaware for business because of their business friendly laws. Curious of your thoughts on this practice and if its worth it. Thanks
