The thought came to be when discussing a new business model. The realization that a boot-strapper can be non-compliment with things like employment regulation, business licenses, etc, in order to demonstrate a business concept. Then fix the problems only if the business model is viable. One caveat is this will only work if one can limit personal liability.<p>For clarification, I am not talking about fraud or ripping people off, however the avoidance of some red tape until a model is actually proven ($$ and people). If the model fails, the business gets slapped with a few fines and fees and dies. A existing business or one with large financial investment does not have this ability, therefore it is a boot-strapper's advantage.<p>I would like to open a discussion on this idea.
You're being fairly vague so let me put some hypothetical context in here.<p>Let's say you made a video game...<p>If all you are talking about is paying taxes under your own name until you find out whether or not a significant number of people are going to buy your game, fine.<p>Anything more than that however would be less than wise.<p>EDIT:
Let me amend that...<p>I should say that I was assuming the content of the game was non controversial. If your content is controversial, ALWAYS start the LLC, it is not that hard usually.
