      Tldr: Don’t do this unless you have a business that requires a steam account for tax purposes. It doesn’t need to be successful but it does need to be real.

      Trusts are probably a better option for this sort of thing than a LLC.

          I am now curious how and if Steam bothers to deal with business licensing? If they do, it’s probably way pricier than what you’re normally paying.

        There’s at least 10 states with no annual fee. Arizona is $50 to file, $0 annual fees, and no annual report to file.

        If you’d prefer your company to have voting rights, you can file in Rhode Island, and your company can vote in local and state elections without ever stepping foot in the state. Hooray late stage capitalism 😞
