Thanks and I appreciate the response. And I mentioned Eduardo earlier in the thread only to highlight a point: for most orgs, these forms will be fine. There won't ever be enough money on the table to make an expensive lawsuit worthwhile.

"Never ask a barber if you need a haircut." That's a pointless response to an on-point comment.

CORRECT. So maybe not all tangles with the law are equivalent in their need for specialized outside expertise, eh? Maybe it makes sense to think about it and maybe discuss with an actual attorney before you leap, eh? Maybe more than a few

Please forgive me: I know you are probably a great attorney and this is a relatively simple part of the law. When I say "proven", I'm thinking "has been tested in court" or "has withstood challenges by shareholder lawsuits". That may very

WOW. Enjoy your cellmate dude. The jails are full of guys who think like you. Cookie cutter plea bargain. YIKES! Just plead guilty. It's cheaper!

Jesus. What about these documents makes you think they are "proven" by any measure? Exactly what metric are you using to make that determination?

Hey, next time you are facing jail time, let me decide for you what your best options are, K? Do we have a deal?

Well then why didn't you? You could have just went into the courtroom Pro Se and hoped for the best.

I think you and I agree on most of the important points. But we'll leave it there.

IANAL. And you should apologize for calling me one. But I have paid good money to lawyers and it was worth every cent. Ask anyone who has ever had to fight a lawsuit (and won) if they thought they overpaid for legal advice. If you think t

Dude, you're missing my point. Everything you said is 100% correct. It all makes complete sense. But I'll repeat my initial point just so we're clear about what my problem here is: A website is not going to ask you questions about the spe

I'm willing to bet that attorneys on the west coast (I mean CA) are more liberal about this sort of thing. And I'm positive that your documents are great. No problems there. BUT, as I stated above, once you get into making adjustments, it'

You are missing my point: if you think you need a lawyer to review a document you obtained elsewhere, you're gonna have a bad time. I have no problem with using a standard structure and replicating that across many many companies. That's s

I LOL'ed. The number of lawyers who will review a corporate formation package you bought online is laughably small. Asymptotically zero in fact. A better idea would be to provide the option to connect with the lawyers who drafted these spec

IANAL, either. But sculpture somehow brings to mind the idea that a "work" had an artistic component as opposed to a functional one. For instance, it might be infringement to "print" a copy of Michelangelo's David, but not a part of a hand

Why is this a thing? The CAD files that serve as the input to the 3D printers are closer to deserving patent or trade secret protection than copyright. Copyright protects "creative, intellectual, or artistic forms", not inventions or tangi

At a minimum, you need two things for a decent Computer Science program: 1. Data Structures 2. Algorithms All of the rest of your topics build on the concepts in those two classes.

I hear you and I don't want to underestimate or diminish the concerns that private companies have. That said, the threat vectors for APTs aren't always solely network-based. IIRC, the behavior of the APT that struck RSA was fairly targeted

I haven't read the report yet, but it's on my list. That said, our (USA) national interests are at stake here. So far, we've left it up to the individual commercial parties to police and defend their own networks and that isn't working as

It's worth noting that 0MQ was developed as a library for HFT/algorithmic trading applications. In those environments, TLS isn't necessarily a requirement because it's a closed network. If you need TLS so your trading app can talk to the

Maybe you're missing the point that this is a great brand evangelism story. They are putting their money where their mouth is: they bought the car, they are doing the drive, and they are inviting everyone to see them do it live.

A C-corp and an S-corp are equivalent in all but a few ways: An S-corp is restricted in the total number of shareholders, and the classes of stock. It also can't have retained earnings. That's it. S-corps aren't really popular any longer.

UGH. People in the USA forget that we have TWO tax systems. One is the regular tax system that everyone knows and loves to hate. The other is the closest thing we have to a "flat tax" and it's called AMT. It has different rules and differe

Nobody does this. You give up the benefits of pass-thru taxation that you GAIN with an LLC. You're essentially volunteering to be taxed TWICE if you make this election.

This guy is focusing on taxes when the better question to answer would be: "What corporate structure makes sense for you given your goals?" There are a whole range of issues to consider of which taxes are but a single one. All sorts of thi

by Nrsolis 14y ago
NOPE. C-corp taxes are subject to all sorts of rules. You can't do C-corp taxes on your own except in the most simple of circumstances. You definitely need a CPA (and a good one) if you're going this route.

Did you miss the part where I mentioned that oil is also a STRATEGIC resource and not just a commodity? Why else do you think we've committed our military to the purpose of securing supply?

by Nrsolis 14y ago
Now you're showing your naiveté. Do you think for a second that if the US wasn't out there securing the supply that the price would be where it is? SO MANY nations enjoy the umbrella of protection that is provided by the unipolar geopoliti
