1) If you've got guys willing to front all the money while you gain experience and make some money then that's a no brainer.

Quote from @Brenden Goldman: Thanks Benjamin for your insights.

They claim only 2-3 percent of the companies are audited so the more clientele they have the percentage of audits will be less even if they make some calculated risks.Few Deductions they highlight which you can get with proper planning and right CPA.1) 119A - Revenue stream bifurcation2) Augusta Loophole 280A - use primary residence for 14 days of business and pay you back without tax implications.3) Paying your medical and children education fee using c-corp4) offcourse the famous charitable llc - another program and package.Thanks for the insight.

In the meantime I would put the money in a low risk account gaining 4-5% which for $250k would be around $1k/month.Hey Chris - what is driving the sentiment not to buy anything right now?

Thank you all for the insights!

I'm wondering if that might be less of an issue for something more rustic and temporarily occupied like camping/RV.Any one have any thoughts, parallel experiences, or other basis for insight?
