Using Fiverr freelancer outside of the website/platform?
I've used Fiverr a couple times and have been pleased with the service. I want to use one of these freelancers on an on-going basis for some work for the next year or longer. Is there any advantage to me contacting them outside of Fiverr and paying them directly? Or am I better off paying them through Fiverr? I would imagine Fiverr has more protection to me as a customer and probably a better payment platform but they'll take a cut of money, so the freelancer could maybe charge me less going directly.

Can I add my husband as authorized user to company credit card?
It would be convenient for my husband to make purchases with company credit card at times (i.e. he is at costco and picks up a printer.). How will this be seen by IRS? Assuming I reimburse myself/him as a vendor for reasonable purchases. Is there another workaround for this besides handing him my CC?

Professional automotive racing team looking for a parts invtory system/software.
Good afternoon! I help run a professional automotive racing team. We recently tripled the size of our facility and want to start a parts inventory system for all of our spare parts we carry both at the shop and on our race rig (a tractor-trailer that holds the cars and a mobile shop). Right now I just use bins with contents sheets but that has become a pain, disorganized, and feels extremely archaic. All my parts have associated BMW factory part numbers so I will not need to design architecture for that, I will use the factory numbering system. I would like a simple inventory system that we can quickly search quantity and storage location. It needs to be able to work at the shop and also remotely via a laptop while on the road (which is approximately 2 week of each month). Any suggestions for something like this would be great. Thanks in advance!

Opinion: It is hard to see how Twitter will outsmart Musk. Forcing him to buy a company he no longer wishes to own is not a good outcome for the business. Nor is prolonged uncertainty welcome for its employees https://t.co/vLjZ6ddLgO

What would make more sense business-wise for my endeavors?
I have been trying to make sense of sole-proprietor and LLCs to see what would make the most sense to me personally, if at all. I would be solo in each one. Essentially I plan to have 3 unrelated ventures I want to do: IT consulting/contracting, penny stocks and crypto investments, and freelance translation/interpretation. Each one will have their own startup costs from equipment to software and membership fees. I can see needing legal protection from at least the IT and translation ventures with worst case client scenarios. Given this general vague idea, does seeking a LLC or sole-proprietor even make sense in this scenario?
