Why did you decide to go back after your MBA?

I swore I wouldn't do it after my MBA after being at a grindy fund but now I'm about to graduate and starting to seriously consider recruiting again. I hated it but the money is hard to look away from. I would so much rather do venture or corporate business development or startups. What made you want to stick around?
