A BA can be on the client side or the IT side. If on the client side, they are interfacing with work group domains that process the work and review what they need. They generate requirements and then work with the IT side to update or generate processes and applications to fullfil the business needs.

If you're a BA on the IT side of the house, then you're taking all the requirements and developing processes and application solutions. Your job is to work with the client to generate a business solutions document (there are many names for it) and get signoff. Then, you need to make sure that solution becomes reality by working with systems analysts, programmers, and testers. You're generally responsible for the delivery of the solution. Although, if the solution revolves around process changes with other work group domains, you normally work with a PM (Project Manager). Never the less, you have end to end responsibilities for the IT delivery to insure the client gets what they need (and paying for).

With the offshoring of work to cheap labor, to remain associated with software development, the BA role is a good profession.

The people that you are representing gambled away our future in the derivatives market.

We are broke.
You know it and I know it.

So who is it that you are defending exactly?

With the average global IQ going DOWN, and critical information being ridiculed into entertainment, will people ever understand?

With the dumbing down of MEDIA ENTERTAINED nations, education may just be the only way to stimulate brains to learn to think again. And maybe turn the average IQ back up again?

But will the ever growing bureaucratic OVERHEAD allow this to happen?

You make some good points
.
Maybe certain real issues should be brought to the forefront. Multinational corporatism should not override national sovereignty. This is the number one issue on the global stage and you know it.

Secondly, the people are aware of the lies and spin being pushed by the same powers trying to maintain control. It’s having a negative effect and it isn’t going to last much longer.

Now as for the educational system, you already know.

I cant say if it would work in your town, you need to do marketing research to see what would succeed in your town.
Also in business .. Location, Location, Location is VERY important to success .. not only do you need the right business, you need the right location ..

If you don't like books, don't like to read .. then a book store probably wont make sense. Did deep .. Only you know what you really want to do.

For IRS purposes, you need to make a profit every 3 out of 5 years to have the IRS prove that you are not running a business. Otherwise, it is up to you to prove that you are running a business and not doing a hobby. You can prove that you are running a business by keeping your business accounts and personal accounts separate.

You can write off any legitimate business expense including dinners with clients, car expenses, equipment, etc.

Having a separate checking account and credit card is a good idea. However, it isn't necessary. You can comingle your business and personal expenses using your personal accounts. But, if you do this, then it will be harder for you to prove that you are running a business.

For your revenues, you don't need a corporate account to make you deposits. You just need to make the deposits in your separate account that you use for business.

You can read Publication 334 for more information.
