Working full time for big corp in California and have offer for part time contracting gig at local early stage seed funded startup. They want to pay me hourly and give me stock options. I can&#x27;t seem to find anything about it online but would setting up an LLC be a good way to offer these contracting services and, more importantly, can the LLC be used as a vehicle to hold stock (options) in said company? I know it&#x27;s quite common in my home country (Netherlands) for the LLC equivalent to be able to hold stock in other entities.<p>If the startup takes off after 6 months or so I plan to leave job at big corp and join full time but would like to use the LLC in the meantime as opposed to signing personally.
Ask HN: Best legal form for contracting at startup and receive stock options?
