Do I need a DBA/EIN?

Hi all,

Probably a question for my CPA but can't hurt; I'm doing about 9k/mo in MS and also liquidating points by booking flights for friends/family. Given I have an extra 10k coming in/out of my bank accounts per month, albeit not getting 1099'd, do I need to start doing something more professionally? What have you guys been doing and why?

Probably better asked in the MS Forums.

And, be careful redeeming miles for Family/Friends if you are getting paid for that. It's against many airline's FF program rules to sell or barter tickets/redemptions and particularly AA will likely find you and shut down your accounts, cancel and tickets outstanding, and take away any miles you have.
