Now, i need to work to provide for my wife and daughter. With 3 companies experience. I wish I have MBA degree before joining. The salary is much higher and promotion is much better. Even tho experience is the very important. In my honest opinion, when someone (also me) said, MBA is a waste of time. It is a way of patting themselves for not having MBA degree. Im still thinking about doing MBA but like I said, I have to provide now. So that is a sad part of my life. And in USA, i think MBA is worth it when it is from dope university only. And excellent candidate with 3rd class university MBA degree will always lose to Harvard degree holder with lowest score. The Brand is important to many corporate. That is why Harvard charged higher.

The pro's of doing an MBA that you mentioned at the beginning ticked all the boxes and my reasons for wanting to do an MBA. Thanks for the tips, good vid.

Education is a tricky thing. What works for one person won't for another. For Example, Benjamin Franklin, arguably one of the finest minds of his day, was able to retire a wealthy man by the age of 42 with only two years of formal education. Perfect example of a self learner, but not many people could follow his example and succeed.

On a more serious note. I did my Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration on a private school of Applied Sciences for a total of about 12.000€ (I am German). Even the boss of that school said the MBA is a waste of money and time, because the learning content is exactly the same but in just in English. A specialization is always the key to success. So at first I chose MSc. Finance and Accounting (2 years, another 10 grand). After 1 year I learned that this will not meet my expectation. So I switched to my original Interest and Hobby: IT. So starting in march this year, I will start with MSc. of IT Management. Luckily I can transfer 3 modules, thus "starting" in second semester (total of four). By the way, this is a lecture besides the actual work, so I earn money. Lectures are in the evening and on weekend. It's hard but manageable. In the end I have work experience and theoretical knowledge. The industry demands it...

Much appreciated. I can't wait to explore your other videos.

I have an MBA and still found this extremely useful. Thanks!

Thanks Antonio, great video. My 2 cents, I recently got an MBA after 4 years of work after graduating. I knew I want to get into entrepreneurship but I knew that the path would be tough to directly get into, given the fact that my overall background wasn't strong in business and I just knew I was falling short of some critical skills. 1 year of MBA gave a lot of knowledge about Marketing, Finance and atleast a glimpse of stuff you just mentioned. I landed a great job after that and now just want to make sure this 'entrepreneurship goal' doesn't get diluted working for someone. As for my opinion, I would say MBA could be a good investment and it's tough to say whether it works out well or not without diving into it. Would recommend people to just listen to their gut and take their decisions.

Thank you so much for sharing this. It's perfect for our changing economy. I am ready. I know my WHY! I know what I want AND I'm on a threshold. It is time for the right level of change in MY life. I am working hard to reach my dreams. In the beginning of this year, I set 12 goals. Interesting enough I already reached a couple of them that I thought would be the hardest to attain. REACHED: 1. Appeared on TV in a Real Estate feature. 2. Finished my book and schedule a publishing date. 3. Learned to do 3 new things with my kids that they like to do (ride a hoverboard, ride a rip stick, learn their trendy dances) 4. Scheduled a public speaking engagement in front of 200 people (spoke before 500). 5. Start a new business. (In process. Will launch soon). 6. Read 12 books. WAITING: 7. Schedule a public speaking engagement in front of 500+ people. 8. Schedule a public speaking engagement in front of 1,000+ people. 9. Get 6 home listings over $1,000,000 each (already have 1). 10. Help my 2 older sons start their own businesses. 11. Learn conversational Greek. 12. Finally purchase a motorcycle to take my father on rides again. I already reached the toughest one. I appeared on a Real Estate related TV special. It was nationally televised. Each goal I reach is replaced by a bigger goal. Here is my appearance on NBC Open House TV ... kzread.info/dash/bejne/iISV182fdKvHhto.html Like I said, I replaced each reached goal with a tougher one. I ask that as you read the next six goals, you read the reached goal first and then the new goalI replaced the first 6 goals with the following: 1. Appear on THREE TV Specials where I speak directly. 2. Write 7 children's books (a series). 3. Learn 6 new things with my kids. 4. Shake hands with 6 nationally recognized multi-millionaires. 5. Start a Christian Church that stays true to Jesus Christ's greatest commandment. 6. Read a book a week! BONUS*** Buy Mom and Dad a better home. I know my why. I am George L. Rosario. Remember me.

Great points. Before going down the path of getting one you should know what your ultimate vision and end goal is and how a specific MBA will help you get there. Going in assuming it will get you a higher salary, better title and status is a dangerous way to think about it as you may not see a ROI on your time and money invested. The largest benefit of an MBA is the network you may acquire so where you go and ensuring you engage socially is very important. Thanks for laying out the key summary points and making high quality content. Cheers.

I'm a regular viewer of your page and I was really surprised to hear your POV on whether getting an MBA. You helped me continue with my decision: I spent the last two days making my own MBA program combining books, workshops, and certificate programs. My capstone project will be starting my business - pray for me! :-) I attended grad school twice and dropped out because it was a waste of time - now I'm excited to put effort into a program that I care about and will produce a positive outcome for me and my family.

Of course I was nervous but I stepped up to the plate and at the end of the day, my manager told me I did a very good Job; Afterwards, whenever my front end lead manager was sick, or off, She would rely on me before anyone else to run the front because I treated my employees like family and treat them with respect and everything runs so smoothly!.

Unless you go to one of the top schools the degree not worth the paper it is printed on unless you have some killer work experience to go with it.

it varies from one student to another as well.

I did my undergraduate degree in social work & gender studies. Loved the program and I learned a lot of transferrable skills, but it wasn't for me. After the four year degree I went straight into doing my MBA. I'm halfway through now (Canadian MBA in Toronto) and I've found that it's a lot more beneficial to get an MBA when you have a different undergraduate degree as you have a different perspective on things. I have many peers that are not learning anything new and wasting a lot of money on the program since they're straight out of a 4 year business undergrad.

Great information! This information is valid for ANYONE who wants to know the truth of whether to study their profession and get a degree first in school , or to go straight into the work force.

Hey thank you for such a nice insight... But i want to know if the course of an MBA could actually help in grooming a personality that could eventually help in setting up a business of one's own...? Thanks

More great advice. I think like you in that not everyone needs to have that "title" and many people probably just get it because they like business but are a little unclear as to where to apply it except to work in the corporate sector. I think the stigma of the pedigree of an MBA is what drives people and it sort of like the " I made it and have an MBA" is the end result, but a false one. And all the debt accrued to acquire such debt is crippling. I am not into the business world as such, but think this is valuable information that is valuable not only in the MBA circuit, but in other aspects of career.

RMRS I fully agree with you Sir, your presentation was just great sir, hard to accept but it is probably a bitter truth for many of us. I could not complete my One year Full time MBA program in the U.K. for financial constraints.

Another great possibility in combining the military and mentoring suggestions he mentioned is to become a Bodyguard for an Executive. You will never tearn more about being one than to follow one around all day and protect them with your life. That was the most valuable training for the business world that I ever received. Yes I do also have a very general, generic MBA, but my company paid for it.

Antonio, a couple videos back i mentioned multi tools and pocket knives around the office. i just wanted to fill you in on my purchase. I bought a kershaw shallot designed by ken onion. It was only $60. Best knife i've ever owned. It is sharp both in function and in style. It is a wonderful silver color and is thin. It fits right in any pocket, jeans or slacks with ease and is slim and light enough to not be noticed. There are no thumb studs so it will not ruin or catch on clothing. Truly a noteworthy tool and one to consider in your upcoming video. Can not recommend it enough. It truly has been a conversation piece. Some of my colleagues also recommended a tactical pen from our talks about my new kershaw. I may buy one in the near future. They mentioned CRKT. They had said it was a fantastic pen to write with and one that can be used for defense if ever needed. Just wanted to update you and maybe spark some ideas for a future video!

I have 3 years working in low-level supply chain management and enjoyed it. I'm looking to get back into a supply job, but, most employers want a bachelor's in business. I'm a veteran who's stumbled in using his VA education benefits, using some on general study credits not necessary for transfer, wasting some on predatory schools, and accruing 4 dropped courses: i have 12 months of the Post 9/11 GI Bill left, but, have the Hazelwood act available, as I enlisted in Texas. I'd have to do 2 part time semesters of pre-reqs before I'd be able to transfer somewhere like Mays Business School at A&M. Even with VA benefits, I don't see how I could avoid taking out student loans for living expenses. I know others would kill to have tuition paid for, but, I just don't know if getting even a bachelor's in business, to work supply chain, will be worth it in the end. I really hate the idea of taking out student loans. Would you say go for it, or, apply to jobs in supply chain, hoping employers will overlook my lack of degree? Thanks.

Hi Antonio, I agree with your insight. An MBA is for certain specific career pathways and not everyone will benefit. Your alternatives are very refreshing and reassuring. Excellent advice everyone should take on board. Thankyou

thank you bro

I just finished my undergrad 5 months ago. I majored in Accounting. I was going to study for the CPA/FAR exam but decided I want to go back to school for an MBA. I'm writing my Statement of Purpose right now. I've been in business all my adult life. Insurance, Banking, and Accounting. I want an MBA so I can be a community college business educator.

impressive presentation skills - hand gestures were on point :D where did you learn to do that?

great video really lays out some of the groundworks of why and different criterias. i am currenntly doing an mba but getting tuition reimbursement from my company. i aspire to climb the corporate ladder or move into a higher level capacity. although it's still a big dent in my savings account, i won't be taking on any loans.

I have my own company (doing construction and contracting work) but I'm not satisfied with its performance and feel like there are things to improve on which don't have the knowledge yet. Also, I think I can benefit from the network that I develop in school and who knows that some of my classmates may become my future clients too! Having said these, would you recommend doing an MBA for someone like me?

Love the fact that you are posting videos to help men in all aspects, not just style. Kudos to that!

Nothing off the top of my head now, because so far, I'm really impressed with your channel's content. Just keep up what you're doing! I've just entered my 20's and am starting to build a wardrobe from scratch. Just recently bought my first suit! Thanks for the motivation and lessons!

Hello Antonio, Firstly Thanks for this great video, cleared my mind of confusion about the utility of an MBA. I am currently a Mechanical Engineering Final year student. I intend to pursue an MS in Manufacturing Engineering in US, through taking the GRE & TOEFEL tests. What do you think of the usefulness of a technical degree like this? And will an MBA be really useful if I stick in this kind of Engineering service. (I know you have said that MBA is useful for a corporate career; but I suppose Mechanical engineering Jobs aren't exactly corporate, am I right?)

Thank you

He is totally right. MBA´s make sense for people with prospects of a higher position on the company, or leading roles in their sector. For most cases, i.e. the average Joe, it´s just a huge waste of money. If you want to start your own business you better learn from somebody with experience on the field. Most teacher´s there, are specialist this and expert that (yadda yadda yadda) but in the end are just theoretical, they never got their hand´s dirty

Joshua Garden What type of Master's programs are you people referring to?

You want to be at the level of decision-makers, you need a certified backing from a high-league school. You can read all you've got for free, but without the certification, no one would care. Of course, you might be one of the lucky 5% up there without a MBA.

I love the alternative points you presented at the end. And since I am I retested in entrepreneurship I will definitely start with point one, which is investing 30 minutes in myself. Wish you could reply with the link though, thanks

If someone is in undergrad, taking ROTC levels MS 1 and MS 2 teaches leadership without having to sign a contract. If you like it, you walk right into a management position as military officer.

Antonio, what was your MOS in the Corps? I'm 27 and I'm still thinking of joining, but I don't know if I should be enlisted or go the officer route.
