[ale] Legal Requirements for small business consulting

[webmaster at tinyminds.org (Mark Angeli)]

If he is doing this on his own, for one or two clients, I'd go the 10-99

He's basically a contractor, if he earns over (I think its $500) a year
from a specific company then he claims it on his taxes.....

Of course, I could be very wrong. I'm a computer geek not a tax/sm
business lawyer....
