Christen G. So many LLCs - some advice needed

Plus the IRS would look at this and likely say that Master LLC actually is the owner of A and B (given that all of the profits go to it) which would defeat the whole point of this setup.As you can see, your broker's suggestion is needlessly complicated and ultimately does not work (unless I am missing something).If you want to operate 50/50 with a partner, you both need to own the LLC (or LLCs) 50/50.
