“Only a governmennt job gives a rat’s behind about an MBA. An MBA screams, “I had no other skills so I went and got this!””

...and then there’s the guy who was a senior executive at an ad agency but had maxed out his earnings. He took the GMATs and got accepted at a top Ivy League School for his MBA. He nearly flunked Economics but ended up at the top of his class with tutoring and hard work. He graduated, got a job on Wall Street, ended up running divisions at three different banks and made hundreds of thousands more than he would have otherwise. That guy was me and I didn’t need to go back. Absolutisms are seldom absolute.

How much of that was MBA and how much was contributed by many other things, such as yourself, contacts made at that Ivy school, etc?
