  - [deleted] 1
    - Yeah, that's simply absurd....i'd probably walk off the course and never play again. - Will Hunting Jan 31, 13:27

i think loosilu has email. - tRuMaN Jan 31, 13:18 1
- replied. -- nm - loosilu Jan 31, 13:21
and I always tip in cash if I have cash on me. - groiny Jan 31, 13:15 5
- I guess I do both because I sometimes pay the whole tab in cash. Don't generally charge if it's under $10. -- nm - Meg Jan 31, 13:21
- good. when you come out of your shell when I come to chicago you can show me how to do that -- nm - Remlik Jan 31, 13:15 3
  - bring your friend with you, and I might. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 31, 13:16 2

Couple of quick lawyer questions.... - Capstern Jan 31, 13:14 14
- [deleted] 8
  - Planning on it but wanted to run what I said below by some people here before I tried to pay by the hour to explain :) -- nm - Capstern Jan 31, 13:23
  - Exactly. -- nm - pmb Jan 31, 13:22
  - and not just any lawyer, but one who is experienced in businesses. cap., there's a lot of free advice out on the internets about this stuff. - b. Jan 31, 13:20 4
    - [deleted]
    - I have read the LLC stuff but was trying to bump the idea of a company with multiple projects... - Capstern Jan 31, 13:22 2
      - I'm sure you could do it under one company (50/50) and then pay that one guy 10% of the specific project under another contract - oblique [220] Jan 31, 13:23 1
        
        Yeah we are looking for a lawyer. But trying to have ducks in a row before that. Was hoping that the 3rd party thing is just a contract bewteen her - Capstern Jan 31, 13:25
  - this -- nm - OAE -- aka OAE Jan 31, 13:19
- each LLC should have a separate operating agreement that memorializes the intended structure and terms -- nm - charlie Jan 31, 13:16 3
  - well there is only one company - but it will drive projects that may or may not have outside profit participation -- nm - Capstern Jan 31, 13:20 2
    - you still need an operating agreement for the LLC, i.e., the fuctional equivalent of Articles of Incorporation for a corp. - charlie Jan 31, 13:21 1
      - read that. Since its just us two thats easy. Do we treat the 3rd party project participation as a simple contract between the LLC and the 3rd party? -- nm - Capstern Jan 31, 13:24
- it is under 18 in every state, cappie. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 31, 13:15

- I'm not. The interesting thing about this question is that it can be answered yes from the right and the left. -- nm - mara Jan 31, 13:16
- [deleted] 2
  - I'd probably answer "yes", but I'd also answer yes to a question asking if the Federal Gov't is protecting my personal rights, too. - musubi Jan 31, 13:20 1
