Optimal shareholding split with spouse
Thanks for pointing it out. I didn't mean to duplicate threads. I checked in the morning and couldn't find the last thread that I had posted yesterday and I thought the last thread was lost (due to technical glitch or my unapproved newbie status). Apologies!- sher
