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.
