I am starting a financial advisory business. At this point, I plan to have a newsletter to which people can subscribe, and in which I will give financial advice. Down the line, it is possible that I will manage money, though at this point I won't be doing that.
I would like the business to have limited liability. I would also like to save on taxes, if possible. What is the best thing for me to do and why? What type of business should I form? What are the upsides and downsides of this and other options?
Since this is an internet business, I won't be doing business in any particular state. I expect to have clients all over the US, as well as internationally.
