+* how to legally protect your company
+
+** what kind of legal entity should I set up?
+
+*** Overview
+There are a few legal fromeworks:
+1. Proprietership
+2. General Partnership
+3. Limited Partnership
+4. Corporations
+5. Limited Liability Company
+
+*** Proprietership
+#+ATTR_HTML: :class positives-negatives
+| Positives    | Negatives            |
+|--------------+----------------------|
+| cheap        | personal liability   |
+| quick set up | tough to sell it     |
+| no politics  | tough to raise money |
+
+*** General Partnership
+Notes:
+ - similar to sole proprietership
+ - involves more people
+
+#+ATTR_HTML: :class positives-negatives
+| Positives    | Negatives            |
+|--------------+----------------------|
+| cheap        | personal liability   |
+| quick set up | tough to sell it     |
+| 2+ members   | tough to raise money |
+
+*** Limited Partnership
+
+#+ATTR_HTML: :class positives-negatives
+| Positives         | Negatives        |
+|-------------------+------------------|
+| cheap             | passive investor |
+| limited liability | tough to sell it |
+| 2+ members        | tough to raise money |
+
+*** Corporations
+
+use it if you are a large company
+there are legal laws requiring protecting investors
+
+#+ATTR_HTML: :class positives-negatives
+| Positives            | Negatives                 |
+|----------------------+---------------------------|
+| access to capital    | board meetings            |
+| easy to sell         | expensive to set up / run |
+| corporate governance | dealing w/ shareholders   |
+
+*** Limited Liability Company
+
+- this is what he want us to use when you get big.
+- for some reason the LLC is more likely to get sued than the founder
+- costs around 800$ to set up per year
+- there is a reason everyone uses delaware
+
+#+ATTR_HTML: :class positives-negatives
+| Positives                        | Negatives    |
+|----------------------------------+--------------|
+| cheaper than a coroporation      | expensive vs |
+| limited liability                |              |
+| if loses money, helps with taxes |              |
+
+** Taxes
+
+1. minimum tax rate is 10% for anyone making under 9000$
+2. corporate taxes:
+
+   if a corporation makes 100k what is the tax rate?
+
+   #+ATTR_HTML: :class tax-bracket
+   | bracket    | formula                        | result |
+   |------------+--------------------------------+--------|
+   | 0 - 50k    | 0 - 50k * 15% = 50k * 15%      | 7.5k   |
+   | 50k - 75k  | 50k - 75k* 25%  = 25k * 25%    | 6.5k   |
+   | 75k - 100k | 75k - 100k * 34%   = 25k * 34% | 8.5k   |
+   | total      |                                | 22.5k  |
+
+      total tax: 22.25k
+      tax rate = 22.25%
+
+
+   but if you break it down by percentages and weights
+
+   where the percentage is the percentage of the money that is in that bracket.
+   ie, 50 out of 100 is half.
+
+   (money in that bracket / total money made) * bracket-percentage = percentage to be paid on total taxes
+
+
+   #+ATTR_HTML: :class tax-bracket
+   | bracket    | formula                  | result |
+   |------------+--------------------------+--------|
+   | 0 - 50k    | 50k/100k * 15% = ½ * 15% |   7.5% |
+   | 50k - 75k  | 25k/100k * 25% = ¼ * 25% |   6.5% |
+   | 75k - 100k | 25k/100k * 34% = ¼ * 34% |   8.5% |
+   | total      |                          |  22.5% |
+
+3. Dividends get taxes twice
+   - taxed on the companies income
+   - taxed on the shareholders income from the company
+
+** How to Protect an IP
+
+*** Overview
+1. patents, copyrights, trademarks
+2. NDA - Non Disclosure Agreement
+3. Employee Contract / No Compete Clause
+
+*** Patent
+- Product is 'protected' once filed
+- costs between $1k - $100k to do
+- takes less than a year to set up
+  - 'patent bending is almost as good as pantent
+
+*** Trademark ™
+- name, brand, slogan
+- registers at the State or patent office
+  - at the patent office you can register it at a couple of States
+  - and you get the Trademark symbol - ™
+- if not used for more than 3+ years you can lose it
+
+If you register the trademark at the federal level
+ - it is called "Registered Trademark"
+ - it then gets the registered 'r' symbol - ®
+
+Small companies will generally go for the Trademark ™
+
+*** Copyright ©
+- tough to patent software or media
+- the solution is Copyright
+- protected for up until 50 years after you die
+
+used for non physical things such as stories, code, or music
+
+*** IP Recap
+
+#+ATTR_HTML: :class ip-recap
+| Symbol/Term | Description                       |
+|-------------+-----------------------------------|
+| ™           | brand registered at state level   |
+| ®           | brand registered at federal level |
+| ©           | brand registration of text/media  |
+| patent      | registration of thing/process     |
+
+*** NDA, Employee Contracts
+
+**** Trade Secrets
+- secret
+- contractually restrained
+
+**** Read employment contracts before signing
+- the company may like you, doesn't mean the lawyer does
+
+** Unicorns
+- about 0.07 percent
+- 39 unicorns between 2003 and 2012
+  - 4 every year
+- as the DOW goes up, the unicorns go up
+- 1 / 1538 odds of  VC investment becoming a unicorn
+- top VCs have 1% of their investments in unicorns
+
+cheaper to set up a company today than in the late 90s
