I have watched numerous videos about forming an LLC. And your video is the first one I've come across. That's pretty much altruistic instead of trying to sell somebody some scam service. Thank you so much for this

[@jimhart]

Glad it was helpful!

You should do a video on how to transfer money INTO an LLC.

Came across this video when i asked the question on youtube! greatly detailed my company and I just formed an LLC not to long ago, we did a manager managed LLC and i knew somewhat the difference is but this video helped me out a lot! thank you so much!

[@wakeupandcoffee]

Thank you. I followed every word. Very well said.

[@user-rz9jw2pt6x]

Member managed LLC sounds a lot like a limited liability partnership, and a manager-managed LLC sounds a lot like a limited liability limited partnership. Could you make a video of how they are different?

[@twopointthreeTrust]

question: let's say a entity is established (soul prio), can this entity Act in the capacity of manger as manager-managed LLC? same question can a Estate act in the capacity as a noncommercial registered agent? obviously for privacy and placing the Corner Stone for foundation. appreciate your effort in making educational videos and attempt to answer any questions to best of your knowledge.👍

[@HopeProphecy]

Maybe a silly question - but could having a Wyoming Holding LLC be the member-manager of your operating LLC possibly expose the Wyoming Holding LLC to lawsuits or debts of the operating LLC? (maybe the Holding LLC could be see as acting as "one" with the oeprating LLC/piercing the corporate vail)?

[@jimhart]

If your "holding LLC" is the managing-member of your "operating LLC", then your "operating LLC" is actually the "holding LLC", unless I'm missing something...

[@HopeProphecy]

@@jimhart thanks for your reply. The holding LLC would actually be the umbrella company with the operating LLC as its subsidiary. It is my understanding that another LLC can be a member within the operating llc, but I could be wrong about this. I'm basically just wanting to know if the holding LLC can be the manager for a manager-managed operating LLC (it's own subsidiary). If so, are there any risks of piercing the corporate veil in doing so, and would the holding LLC have to foreign file in the state that the subsidiary LLC is active in.

[@HopeProphecy]

Clarification question: if I want a Wyoming Holding LLC to manage a subsidiary LLC, do I have to set up my subsidiary as MEMBER-managed (by the holding LLC)? or can it be MANAGER-managed (by the Wyoming Holding LLC)? Assuming both LLCs are single-member, would there an advantage to either option?

I'm about to create an LLC in Wyoming and I will be the only one owner and only one member of this LLC. So should I add myself as a Manager and also as a Member? Does it changes anything or should I just leave these parts since I'm going to be only one owner, manager and member of this LLC? Could you please answer? Thanks for video.

I’ve seen sole shareholders set up multiple entities for each of their retail businesses in california with a separate management firm registered in Nevada and separate parent company also registered in Nevada all with the same owner but with a facetious nominee officer as registered agent, is this legal? It sounds too good to be true in order to evade tax responsibilities and liability. It screams fraud.

I agree.
