"A recent survey of top MBA students found that 88% of graduates say they were happy with the investment they made."

Funny, that's what all the unemployed liberal arts majors who spent $100,000 in student loans on their college degree said too...

Accepting that you've made an extremely bad decision and are now condemned to indentured servitude for the rest of your life is way too difficult of a realization for most people to handle. And so--they say that it was worth it, and encourage those who are younger to follow their paths, not realizing that this cowardice is not only what perpetuates the cycle, but allowed the runaway degree inflation to flourish in the first place.

Is that true? I would be shocked if that were true.


That's because liberal arts majors don't know how to calculate ROI.


Spending 100k in an MBA seems better value for the money though.

(and as far as I've looked, they go to that value with everything included, tuition is less)
