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.

$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.

1k worth of games? Oh my sweet summer child

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

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

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.
