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.

I kind of want one anyway. Is there a real reason I shouldn't do this?

You normally pay an annual fee to keep your LLC registered.

There's at least 10 states with no annual fee. Arizona is $50 to file, $0 annual fees, and no annual report to file.

If you'd prefer your company to have voting rights, you can file in Rhode Island, and your company can vote in local and state elections without ever stepping foot in the state. Hooray late stage capitalism 😞
