    Life Pro Tip: Register an LLC to buy your steam games under. The LLC will never die and you can transfer ownership of the business entity while it retains control of the steam account.

        ya, but as an LLC you get a lot of rights that you didn’t have before!

      $800/year is a lot to save maybe $1000 worth of games. At least that’s what an LLC costs where I live.

        Woah, that’s expensive AF. I think forming an LLC in my state is like $25 and then nothing except tax burdens on revenue.

        Almost 10 times less where I live, but not sure because I don’t know which dollars you’re referring to

          US dollars. I’m in California, which is probably one of the most expensive states to get an LLC but still. Even at $100/year I’m probably not getting my money’s worth. Digital games don’t hold their value unfortunately.
