I think zhte415 is just saying there are some things to watch out for, not that they are disagreeing.

These things make sense to me: - You need an invoice for the IRS - Sometimes bad things happen sending money - Sometimes bad things happen receiving money

All this seems reasonable, so your "no" is confusing.

Correct.

Receiving and sending money isn't just about having an invoice, it about documenting that business decisions were made for ethical reasons.

Getting a bank account suspended because of AML/ATF automatic red-flags is a major risk for any small business.
