Answer:

A Mary Kay consultant who deducts travel expenses and whose small customer base was mostly relatives who lived out of town.

Explanation:

A not for profit activity (or hobby) is something that you do simply because you like to do it and generally you should not make a profit from doing it.

A Mary Kay consultant is actually a salesperson whose job is to sell Mary Kay products. Whether she is able to make a profit or not is something different, but selling Mary Kay is actually considered work. Since they are independent consultants, they are considered independent contractors that must file their income taxes.
