Probably a dumb question... I started an S-corp and I only pay myself about 1/6 of what I make. The rest just sits in the business bank account. The thought was that I could just spread my payments out over more years to reduce my tax rate, should this online money making thing not last forever. Now that I think about it, I don't know if that's a great idea, time value of money and all...
Anyway, if I wanted to have the money that's just sitting in the bank work for me, could I invest it, even if investing isn't really within the scope of my business? Would doing so have any benefits relative to doing it with my personal money?
