It is a great investor tool and helps provide anonymity for the beneficial interest.Once you are big enough a business entity is a good idea.

Finally, it could offer some degree of anonymity that you may enjoy.

That's all I can promise at this exact moment.Why I'm Anonymous & Have No Picture I'm trying to keep my full name hidden for now because I do not want my family/friends tracking what I'm doing in this business until I've already succeeded at it, and even then I'm not going to be trying to share it with my family.

People that know far less than they think they doAn LLC is useful for two things: anonymity and legal protection.

In Sf, they even started a program where you can anonymously apply to permit illegal units.

Land trusts provide for some degree of anonymity in normal dealings, they provide a decent amount of asset protection, and are a good holding structure.

From what I've seen most people assume Land Trusts, in themselves, will provide them asset protection but, from my understanding, they really just provide an added layer of anonymity.

The DST must have a valid trust agreement, must be filed with the state of Delaware, maintain a Delaware Registered Agent, and abide by certain other rules particular to the IRS rulings regarding the DST.You can set up anonymous structures in any set or corporations, with where you invest & live a consideration & depending on the answer to those two questions - will depend on what structure is best for you & even what type of estate planning & other retirement options will fit best with that.- Jennifer
