In the UK the way to avoid scrutiny as much as possible is to become a partnership (not an LLP though) - you don't have to report very much but you do have the rather scary joint and several liability.

We have partnerships here in Australia too, so too the USA I believe. Same scary joint-and-several thing.
Some partnerships go one step further and become Swiss "vereins". Sort of somewhere between an unincorporated association and a legal partnership.
