Feel silly to ask it, but can't find an answer in the jumble of Pay Pal info.

I have a Pay Pal account. I've only used it to pay other folks on line. If I have that account does that mean I can also receive funds from other folks on line, or do I have do do something additional with my Pay Pal account to get money?

Trusting the wisdom of the board on this. Thanks for any feedback.
