i am a hosting company, and design company. i charge clients a rate, on my box, that i host @ a hosting company in utah. that box costs me per month, and i charge clients monthly to host, so, im not sure if i technically mark anything up, as its my box, and my hosting charges.
the 150 was for design work. i paid taxes on that in 2009. he never filed crap for me, or any of the other guys who worked for him. mine just happened to be low for that year. the prior year, was significantly higher, due to a new site i built for him. i paid taxes on that too. im not sure he did the right thing there for me either, but at least im covered, as i paid my taxes on it :) and im prolly fuckin up the names of things, w-9, 1099, whatever... but the story above should explain and i think by what you've said im good, and it aint worth it for him to do a thing for "mine". which is all i care about at this point. although he's a friend, thats on him and his business. w0rd.
