Is JD/MBA at Harvard / Yale worth it? I live in Australia at the moment !

Hi everyone, I have dreamt of going to Yale or Harvard from young. I graduated last year from Melbourne Uni with Bach of Law and Business. I'm thinking of going to either Harvard or Yale to do JD/MBA. And yes I am aware that I will only be able to practice law in the US. But that is fine as I am thinking of moving to US and becoming a citizen.

Well that's enough introducing haha, on to the questions!

Is doing the program worth the cost? (I heard it's very expensive)

Are there jobs in the US (law / business or both) with a good salary that isn't relatively hard to get? If so what is it and what is the salary?

Thank you in advanced :)
