Publisher's summary

We live in a highly litigious world. As you live your life you must keep your guard up. As you grow your wealth you must protect it. For those who don’t predators await, and their attorneys will use every trick in the toolbox to get at - whether large or small-your unprotected assets.

Start Your Own Corporation educates you on an action plan to protect your life’s gains. Corporate attorney and best-selling author Garrett Sutton clearly explains the all-too-common risks of failing to protect yourself and the strategies for limiting your liability going forward. The information is timely, accessible, and applicable to every citizen in every situation.

Garrett Sutton has spent the last thirty years protecting clients’ assets and implementing corporate structures to limit liability. This significant experience shines through in a very readable book on the why-tos and how-tos for achieving asset protection. Start Your Own Corporation teaches how to select between corporations and LLCs and how to use Nevada and Wyoming entities to your maximum advantage. This non-technical and easy to understand book also educates on the importance of following corporate formalities, using business tax deductions and building business credit.

This Book is worth more than my business school degree

Save your money and the time don't go to college read these books.
If I would have continued my business without going to college I would have been a millionaire by thirty. Instead 20 years later I'm still working on clearing my debt and clearing the brainwashing that is the modern university.

Great Book for learning about Corporations

This book has really opened my eyes about starting companies. I would have never thought i would gain such an understanding of the different angles of operating a company long term. You will not be disappointed.

Worth it for the novice

I'm just starting to explore the Rick Dad Poor Dad series and trying to shift my mindset to getting rich as I enter my thirties.

I know very little on building a business, real estate, the legalities behind it, corporations, partnerships, and such.

This book was added great value to my level. It's (like Rich Dad Poor Dad) full of stories that help visualize a situation better which helps me learn better, however, it's not comprehensive nor detailed or straight-forward

The beginning chapters were all about the types of corporations and the differences between them. A little hard to finish these chapters and I started to lose interest, but I pushed through it (I'm no quitter). Around chapter 11, the book picked up again with some valuable information in each chapter and a new subject

What I got from this book:
- Types of corporations and which one you should choose for you
- What can go wrong when building a business
- Structure of a business, and legal documents
- Protecting your assets is key
- California is on the harder side when building a business, while Nevada and Wyoming offer the best protection

Example Heaven

This is Packed Full of Great Examples! I also like that he sets the expectations that you still need to speak with an advisor, but now you will be more educated going into the conversation. I will be spreading the good word. Thanks.
