ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Articles of organization

"Articles of organization" is a file you create when you want to start a special kind of club called a "Limited Liability Company" or LLC for short. Think of it like a secret recipe for your very own club. In this recipe, you write down all the rules and plans for your club, like what you want to call it, how the money will work, and who gets to be in charge.

It's important to have these rules written down so that everyone who wants to be in the club knows what they're getting into and can make the right decisions. It's also important because the government needs to know what your club is all about in case they need to check up on it.

So, think of the Articles of organization like a recipe that lets you make your own special club that follows certain rules, just like any good recipe to make yummy cookies.
