Inc. ? Doesn't that mean you've gone IPO?

Inc. ? Doesn't that mean you've gone IPO?

I thought it just mean "INCorporated".

[White_Drake]

I looked it up, and apparently being a corporation means only that the company is a legal entity unto itself. (I thought that the term corporation was used solely to designate publicly-owned companies) Carry on.

It means you can divest your personal wealth from the dealings of the corporation. If the corp goes bankrupt, you don't have to.
