	This is not a dumb question at all.  The "fine line" between personal work 
and business work can have significant legal consequences, such as putting 
your personal assets (bank accounts, house, car, etc.) at stake as a result 
of conducting business as a "sole proprietor."  That's why many people 
choose to form a separate legal entity such as a corporation or an LLC.
