Hello, my name is Joe and I'm based in Chicago, IL.

Call me difficult all you want, but I'm posting an important warning to the BP community: you cannot set your S-corp salary based on some rules of thumb, such as this 60/40 urban myth.That said, there is also no such thing as paying yourself out of a disregarded entity and no such thing as an LLC "owned" by an S-corp.Now you make me guess what your actual setup and your actual intention is.
