Is it worth it to set up a Wyoming LLC as holding company
I currently have a WA LLC, with myself being the owner and manager. As a result, in a public search, the governor name would be me.
If I set up a Wyoming LLC and modify the Operating agreement to have my WA LLC to be 100% owned by my Wyoming LLC, I assume I would still have to list a natural person as the governor of the WA LLC, and my name would still show up there. So would this extra layer give me any help?
If I set it up this way, then the monthly distribution would go to the Wyoming LLC's business account first before going to my personal account, which is fine but another layer of trouble. Also some extra logging and annual fee.
Does this give me any extra benefits? For example, is the charge order protection only valid in Wyoming but not in WA LLC?
