MBA = masturbation?

For those of you which pursued an MBA>>>

Did you found any practicality in the real world of what you studied during the GMAT preparation + b-school classes? Or it's just masturbatory content for academics?

Also, if my end goal is to open my own business or shop, would the MBA knowledge be relevant or again, I would graduate with an A4 certificate attesting how dumbass I am for believing in traditional education?

Furthermore, any uncommon but intelligent reasons to get an MBA beside networking or CV brand?

And finally, if I read The Personal MBA by Josh Kaufman, would I be smarter than you for saving ~ 100k in tuition and have the same understanding of you about businesses from a theoretical pov?

Please, discuss, insult or share your opinion. SB are are welcome. MS also.


 

Ask an MBA associate and you’ll prob get a different answer lmao

 

I'm also considering an MBA, but I have special needs. I need about 6 White Claws to get in the zone and think well. I read the student guide and alcohol is allowed on this side of campus, but it doesn't say anything about bringing coolers in the classroom. Should I email the teacher? He/She/They should be fine with it I guess. I'll have to crack the White Claws softly, but I also require ice.

Prestigious MBA students aren't like "wow that material was amazing." They are pretty much like "wow that was the best networking couple of years of my life." The prestigious MBA gives you an upgraded job and superior connections you can leverage for the rest of your life.
