I mean sure why not, as long as the price is crazy enough :) Do you wanna send me an email at [email protected] and say what kinda price range you have in mind?

Wow that's a good point! bro.science/TOPIC is an interesting way to have a laugh at some common bro-sciency ideas out there :)

I bought it just for fun. I thought I'd ask if anyone has a cool idea what to do with it, and I'd build it in public :)

I think Finnish clients can work with an American LLC. I'm not 100% sure, but I can't seem to even imagine why not.

Not everything is in English. Prime example of that is establishing a limited liability online. Nothing impossible to tackle, but just that if things were in English and smooth, maybe I wouldn't have bothered with writing the guide :) It is troubling at times, which is why I wanted to smoothen it out as much as possible.

Would you like to open an issue on Github and start discussing it?

I have to be explicit as I have been in my guide [1] that I did it for both selfish and selfless reasons. So it has not been done in pure good will :), but I think it can be thought of as maybe a good sweet spot of serving the community and benefitting from it at the same time.
About finding it, yes. It's gotten #1 on /Finland subreddit, I myself have an extensive network in Finland, and it's gone relatively big on twitter and linkedin. So given the size of Finland and the software dev community, I think word of the mouth will eventually spread it to most people who are interested in freelancing.

It is indeed. Makes taking the risk of going from employee with lots of protections in Finland to freelance with no protection whatsoever much less dangerous financial wise.

Would you be interested in forking it for Netherlands yourself and maybe divide the work between your peers to get it up and running? :)

It's gone semi viral I guess.. cuz it's now trending on github and it was #1 on /Finland subreddit when I posted it 3 days ago. I'd personally love to see this for other countries, maybe specially Nordics ones cuz that's easier to implement cuz of the similarities I think.

Agree fully! Couple of people have explained interest in forking this for their respective country! I hope it goes forward and they'd do it.
