Is an MBA worth it? (alien.top)

I am thinking of going into business and would like to get an MBA. I have 8 years of experience writing software professionally and a background in CS. My goal is to learn about business, running them, scaling them, raising money, etc.

Will getting an MBA help me achieve this goal?

Not all MBA degrees are created equal..

You can find this on some college websites:

"An MBA is only worth the expense, time, and effort when the graduate plans to work in a business-related field, in management, or as a company founder. An MBA may not be useful for those working in other industries unless they are in management or leadership roles."

If you are going to go back to college and/or trade school then get an in demand trade and/or degree plus make sure it's something that you really want to do otherwise it is pointless..

Hope this helps..

Best to you
