I'ved used Privacy.com for a few years now and it is a superbly excellent tool. I highly recommend their product for personal and business use.
Privacy and helps keep track of subscription expenses and helps me maintain/be aware budget and/or subscription increases.
The only downside occurs when you are trying to process a refund for a card that was already closed.
I've been in Austin for a number of years.
Austin has the whole "supply chain" of startups - from accelerators to large & mid-size technology companies. The network is close-knit but easy to access and people are very friendly here. Combine all of the aforementioned with the cost of living (albeit, it's increasing) and you have a great city to live in.
Highly recommend.
If you end up coming out here, please let me know and I'll buy you a coffee and am happy to introduce you to others/local events.
Happy to join you for coffee!
I am a HN luddite and have no idea how to PM you through this platform, but feel free to PM me if you know how :)
Following up - The advisor is just being lazy and doesn't want to read the ACTUAL SAFE Note, and would prefer an abridged version (i.e Term Sheet).
A Term Sheet is a non-binding document that highlights the details of a Financing Note (in this case, the SAFE)
I like it!
I am in Austin as well - if, in the future, you ever need any Operations/Finance help, don't hesitate to reach out :)
Best of luck!
I did not cross over from Software Engineering, but did transition from Engineering to Finance.
I would suggest understanding what part of Finance is the most interesting to you. Are you interested in Technical Analysis (i.e focusing on characteristics of the market as opposed to characteristics of the company) or do you find Fundamental Analysis more interesting (i.e interested in the core business of a company and their published financials)?
If you are interested in Technical Analysis, I would suggest taking a few courses online to understand trading strategies. If Fundamental Analysis is more appealing, I would focus on taking courses in Accounting.
Once you have a foundation in investment strategies, try producing content on Quantopian.com - build a portfolio and search for positions at firms.
If you have a strong enough interest, a firm will pick you up.
I currently have developed a product that handles the paperwork burden for c-corps, s-corps, llc, non-profts, etc.. imagine a registered agent that has a much better web interface.
happy to chat in more detail

annual billing, period. being able to access a year's worth of capital upfront will always be better (from the providers point-of-view)
I really don't understand all the hate that Linkedin gets on HN.
In my opinion, Linkedin is one of the better social networks - devoid of clutter and politics since each posting is connected to your professional network/appearance.

I am currently conducting some user-investigation for an idea that I currently have; the idea focuses on entity registration and compliance (areas that I have prior experience in).I was wondering if I could speak with any lawyers/accountants who would be willing to share their experiences.Please let me know if this is possible - thanks!
Hide one side of the market by "intelligently matching users"; users will assume they are in a large marketplace without actually seeing the other side. Additionally, "intelligent matching" can be marketed as a benefit to the user so they don't have to waste time searching on their own.
two wireless mice work iirc
I check Google finance each day at work. huge opportunity for improvement
Linkedin because most of my postings are aimed at increasing my professional development/reputation
I frequently have the issue where players want to cash out uneven, non-whole dollars after a long game. if this enabled users to pool funds and then extract an exact dollar amount (if all party members agree), this could be useful
I generally try to follow a theme of books.
For example, I read the following books:
1) Counter-Insurgency: Theory and Practice (superb book)
2) General Patraeus
3) Obama: The Long Game
4) Ben Bernanke: The Courage to Act
As you can see, the books transition from warfare, to politics, to economics; each book is related to the other - this helps me really grasp all the factors at play within subsequent books
Without knowing all the details (i.e what state your company is in, if it has multiple locations, etc.), I would reach out to the state the LLC is registered in and submit a "Certificate of Merger" where the surviving entity is a Foreign (i.e not in the same state/country). NOTE: You'll also have to file a Certificate of Amendment stating that the LLC is accepting a Merger. You most likely will have to file similar paperwork in the acquiring company's HQ location.
ALTERNATIVELY, If you'd just like to transfer the LLC to a foreign entity, you can file a "Certificate of Transfer" (Section 18-213) - but I believe this isn't your specific use case.
NOTE: I used Delaware as an example, your own state's regulations may vary. For more questions, consult a lawyer or your Registered Agent Service.

Is the entity in question being acquired by an foreign company/shareholder?
Or, are you just transferring a portion of the company to a foreign investor?
Are you looking to transfer shares between individuals or, change the entity structures and have the shares move over to the new entity

If you're an individual, form a sole proprietorship (
https://www.sba.gov/starting-business/choose-your-business-s...). Just note that, if someone sues you, you are personally liable for any damages.
If you intend to work on projects that carry risk (e.g software that handles a business process that, if fails, costs a client thousands of dollars in damages), opt for a LLC (where your personal finances will be protected from any lawsuits).
read with enthusiasm.
emphasizing key words in the passages will make the narrative more entertaining and easier to comprehend
may I ask what your education background is?
I am a fan of what the guys at
http://www.swig.co/ and
http://www.drinkeasy.co/ are doing (disclaimer: I know the founders).
Swig is a social application that enables you to discover new brews that you might like (based off of you and your friend's preferences); sort of like Pandora for your palette.
Drinkeasy is an extension of Swig and enables you to order those drinks.
