I have a consulting company I am going to be mothballing here but I don't want to shut it down entirely just incase another opportunity comes up in the future. I likely won't have any invoices going out in my next fiscal year, and maybe not for several years after that if our current situtation works out. I've already got everything figured out with my accountant as far as filings etc and she's helped me with a few different options of what I could do with the remaining funds in the company. We've done a decent job in drawing it down over the last year but assuming you had about $70k left in the corp after all taxes, fees etc are paid what would beyond do with the funds on a move forward basis?
I think in any situtaion I'd keep about $15k at a minimum in the general account of the corp to fire things back up (if required) and continue to pay the accountant and any small expenses I could justify being a business cost (quickbooks, Microsoft office subscription, cell phone etc). But here is what I am considering
1. Invest in a low risk ETF or something through the corporation and just let it ride baby
2. Pay it out between me and my partner and just take the tax hit
3. Nothing, its not a significant amount of money and who knows what the future holds.
4. Buy a lifestyle family mover and take it to the casino to put the rest on black at the craps table?
So, WWBD?
EDIT: God dammit, I meant to post this in the finance section.
