Trying to escape the $800 California default corporation tax.

I want to know if I incorporate an LLC in Nevada or other state, whether I can use this in California. It will only be used for personal commodity trading. No business sales or anything.

Steven Andro asked:


I’m thinking about making a play on oil. I’d like to buy some sort of contract betting that the price of oil will be higher by next fall, say Nov or Dec 2007. I’m not sure what would be the best and easiest way for me to make this play. I would like to make an investment like a call option where I only risk the premium. Are there call options on oil? I’ve found futures contracts on oil but it seems to me that you have an unlimited downside risk with a futures contract? I like the fact that downside is limited with a call option. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
So if I were to buy Dec 07 56 for $6. I would basically need the spot price to be 62 in the market come Dec 07 to break even, am I calculating that correctly?

Thanks for the help, really hepfully and definitely appreciated. I may call your broker to find out about opening an account.

JK asked:


I know someone who is into commodities and he does VERY well. He worked on wall street.

Anyway. If I want to become a stockbroker, how would I go about doing it? I want to go to college. What IS a commodities broker anyway?

Are there any other types of “broker’s”?

Which make the most.

I know these questions are really vague but can someone please try and shine some light on this for me. Thanks.

Erica asked:


I’m not asking about oil, but about food and clothing. I know that oil goes up because the Middle East hates the US. Right? But what about the major food crisis? Is it only because they’re using rice and corn crops for ethanol? There’s got to be another reason. Thanks. I will award the best answer.

abhay asked:


there are brokerags like forex.com who transfer money to international account. thats what they say. can we open a bank account in USA while i am residing in india?
since i posted this post i have done a few things and i have learnt. RBI does not allow this kind of transaction. i tested it. i opened an account with www.forex.com which is located in USA. and went to ICICI bank (later city bank) filled the application to transfer money to forex.com bank account and i paid the money to ICICI. they called me yesterday morning and said this transactoin was rejected. when i went to the offcie they said RBI does not allow this transaction. and that RBI has intruduced a new rule (guess couple of years back) which will prohobit any indian transfering money to online trading companies located outside india. and they did not tell me which rule or where to find. i searched the whole RBI website could not find anything. i sent a querry to them yesterday regarding this still no reply. i will post the reply here if i get one. NOW i am wondering if any one of you know about this new “RBI RULE” that does not allow me to transfer money into forex.com
