If I have a job and freelance on the side, how is that taxed?
First things first: any income you earn from freelance work needs to be reported when you file your taxes. If you make more than $600 from a single client, they should give you a 1099 form. This will show how much they paid you so that you can file accordingly.

Are a CPA and bookkeeper the same thing?
Many bookkeepers are also CPAs or EAs, but there isn't a specific license to become a bookkeeper. This means you need to do some research and due diligence before choosing one. For me, I would look for an EA that has experience with my style of business & provides the services I'm looking for, get a feel for how they communicate, ask other business owners for recommendations, and go with whoever feels like the best fit after meeting with them.

Is the internet a "tax-free" zone?
As a general rule of thumb, if you receive any sort of income, it has to be reported when you file taxes. Failure to do so can result in penalties, fines, and sometimes even jail time.. If you don't give YouTube your tax info, they will typically withhold 24% of your earnings.
