Most LLC owners don’t realize that how they pay themselves matters more than how much they make. Paying yourself the wrong way can trigger higher taxes, weaken your liability protection, and create serious problems with the IRS.
In this episode, we break down how LLC owners should actually pay themselves, why common methods lead to costly mistakes, and what changes in 2026 make this even more important. You’ll learn the difference between distributions and payroll, how profits are taxed, and when an LLC might need a different structure to reduce unnecessary taxes.
If you own an LLC and want to keep more of what you earn in 2026, this is a conversation you can’t afford to miss.
