Starting a business sounds exciting. Then your bank turns you down. Your LLC paperwork gets confusing. Or you realize nobody ever explained how to pay yourself.

Let's talk LLCs. Business banking. Taxes, payment processors, expenses. Difficult clients. And the less glamorous side of being your own boss.

Real business questions. Unfiltered opinions. No corporate crap.
