This is way too true. The only issue is that if I paid out all of Z, I would be in a lot of red....
The Z amount would, of course, be less the agreed percentage that LRM would have kept
per the terms of the original contract.
The original contract did not specify an amount that LRM is using to operate the company. I decided a 75/25 split sounded appropriate at the time, but that number can't last forever as LRM's costs are fixed and income is exponentially decreasing. At some point even with the previous payout plans it would have had to eventually change.
Despite this fact, as I've stated countless times. This is an immediate fix with benefits going out to contract-holders undetermined at this time.
So which is it? LRM is unsustainable at 75/25 or that "US laws" made your LLC change its terms?
