DBA

Read a random definition: in solo

A quick definition of DBA:

DBA: An abbreviation for "doing business as." It means that a person or company is using a name that is different from their legal name when conducting business. For example, if John Smith wants to sell his handmade crafts under the name "Crafty Creations," he would need to file a DBA to legally use that name for his business.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: DBA stands for "doing business as." It is a legal term used when a person or company operates under a different name than their legal name.

For example, if John Smith wants to open a coffee shop called "Java Joe's," he would need to register the name "Java Joe's" as a DBA with the state or local government. This allows him to conduct business under that name, even though his legal name is still John Smith.

Another example would be a freelance writer who uses a pen name for their work. They would need to register that pen name as a DBA in order to receive payment and conduct business under that name.

These examples illustrate how DBA is used to legally operate a business or conduct work under a name that is different from the person or company's legal name.

Someone told me a while ago that I was probably molested as a kid because I don’t really have any clear memories of my childhood. But I don’t think I was.

Nah, the fucked up thing about therapists is they try and make you think your parents are your enemy 99% of the time and really they should be telling you that your parents have almost no effect on the rest of your life. If they can get you to keep focusing on your parents they can keep making money.
