  2. Just a couple of notes. First off, I like Bob Green, and he is very knowledgeable.

    I would question the "why" of setting up C corps (or even S corps) any longer...there are a lot of mis-perceptions about how much money it will "save" you, or how you can write off health insurance and all of that....IMO, generally a bad idea.

    That being said, setting up a corporation can be done for a couple of hundred bucks on the internet...then you simply advise whoever you choose about it.

    (example only: http://www.corporate.com/)

    Just an opinion.

    I'm trying to set up a retirement account. I've been told that that's the only way to do it.

    I'm a little bit afraid to set one up on my own. Is this something you could screw up, and would it be difficult and/or expensive to fix?

    Sorry about the disclaimer.

    Totally simple to set up, pretty hard to screw up, honestly.

    I don't know exactly what you're attempting to do as far a "retirement account" goes...but be real clear....my radar pops up when I hear that. I'm not current, but I was in Public Accounting for number of years, and know that more entities = more billable hours and fees.
