So, first of all, if A is a director, recognize that he will be involved in the business -- the board can delegate day-to-day decision making to the officers, but the board is ultimately responsible for the company's actions. Secondly, you're mixing up some C- corp and S- corp ideas. In an S-corp, the IRS does not want owners coming along and saying "I ...

I'm not a lawyer and not a tax professional, do verify everything with a licensed attorney and a CPA in California. 1 - A is the only Shareholder and the only Director owning 100% equity. Fine, 2 - A will only be a passive investor who does not participate in the operations of the business at all. Fine (as long as its a C corp). 3 - A ...

Good heads up in your blog article there! I would like to to know exactly how my affiliation with the business can be easily searchable by anyone on the internet. It seems that if I incorporate a business, then a quick internet search would reveal the business affiliation to me due to these people who obtain/sell this information on the net.

Generally, your company can probably afford a US immigration lawyer to handle everything. This is not a "do it yourself" situation. So don't bother thinking about it as it is not for you to think or decide.

However I have observed other countries where employee loyalty is so scarce it's past the ...

You really can't battle widespread, systemic ethical issues. I suggest you visit a good law college close to the city you work in and seek advice from the professors there. You may get referrals to better legal services. Who knows one of them may even be willing to consult for you once in a while.

Only a limited liability company allows you to separate yourself from personal liability, along with the attendant regulatory filing overheads. However, you have to ask yourself what is your degree of personal liability if undertaking a micro-business. Tax benefits are only worthwhile if individual tax rates are higher than corporate (which unless you have ...

You didn't state your country, but if you want to get a ballpark estimate of offshore developers, you can check out People Per Hour. They have developers from US, UK, as well as some offshore areas. It's basically a freelance site, so you can hire people for long term projects, or small one offs, or just see what people charge for various services. I've used ...

You are halfway there in your thinking. It is not that the first idea was right or wrong but that they are both somewhat correct. The margin per sale is important but only when taken into account with the volume of sales per month. A $5 profit for 200 sales is worth more than $150 profit for one sale but only for so long as there are no additional costs to ...
