Hi All,I wanted to provide my first-hand experience of Brad Sumrok’s Rat Race 2 Retirement and MF investing programs.

Orchards, raising horses and others have been ruled allowable by the IRS , even though the business made no income for up to 7 years.These last posts have gotten way off the thread intent.

Different states have different trusts, it's not all the same, so go to the horse's mouth and get the information specific to Maine.

It's the attitude of never giving up and persistence that wins the race.

Then worry about the secondDon't put the cart before the horse

Once they are in, they are hard to get rid of.If you screen people based on their ability to speak clearly, that could be seen as discrimination against National Origin or race.

No it doesn’t seem fair over time when someone gets to jump the rat race and live their dreams while the other has to be the martyr for the rest of eternity.

Don't get the cart before the horse, once you find a deal, there will be people wanting to put up the cash. 

And I will, because that works more often than not than jumping up and down on one's high horse.

So from that standpoint, you want to know exactly what you are doing REI-wise before you try to structure anything, if you decide to do that.My answer from a completely different standpoint is-- no, creating LLCs before you've really gotten started is really putting the cart before the horse.
