You seem to think that an MBA is a specialized degree, when it's the most generalized graduate degree one can get. This is how we know you don't know anything.
Me personally, I find it really weird that you consider yourself superior to everyone else, yet have nothing to show for it. And I mean absolutely nothing, it's kind of impressive how much of a failure you are. I know losers who don't try at anything in life, and they are nowhere near the level of rock bottom you've reached. It's like you're actively trying to fail. And if in fact you are, then I guess congratulations.

An MBA is a specialized degree like you fuking your hand is having sex.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

If that doesn't require a business degree I'm surprisedYou need a business degree to start your own business? Is that a legal requirement nowadays?

Market economy folks...if it were truly useless, you wouldn't see so many people choosing to study it. If an MBA were useless, you wouldn't see companies actively seeking people with an MBA.
Studying business is certainly helpful for running a business. It's not necessary, but it is helpful.

Wincel certainly getting a warm welcome back to the Misc.
Through school you are told that you won't make any kind of decent living without a degree, and yet many in the trades do just fine, so it's not bragging about not being educated, it's a haha in your face to the establishment.

If you continue to make meaningless and insulting posts void of any real substance, I will not waste any effort on you anymore. I won't stop posting. I just won't bother with you.
That goes for danny and godfrd too. Unless you have something meaningful to contribute, I don't see why I need to continue engaging with you. You won't stop me from engaging with others though. I want to make that clear to you.
If you actually have a thoughtful point to make, I'm happy to hear it.

Not all degrees are a piece of paper. Many can get your foot in the door in different fields. Yes a Construction Management degree will greatly help in getting out of the trades which is why I had tradesmen in my classes

Your counterexample fails since you've gone beyond the domain of discussion. I am not a certification program in a market economy. Nice try with overloaded definition, but that's not an argument. Try again.

I'm willing to bet, you STEMcels pay way more taxes towards broke college students than trades.

...STEMcels would open up the border to Mexicans and Indians. all would quickly go back to normal.

civilized society would fall as buildings collapse for "no reason", a functioning computer with internet access becomes the most precious commodity and vaccines kill millions because they're contaminated with piss and ibuprofen.

One more time, you have no idea what you're talking about. Please stop giving your uneducated opinion. Listen to what people who actually know about this are telling you.

Now you're talking about wealth/personal income and certifications. That has nothing to do with what I said. I was arguing about the usefulness of an MBA. You seem to think an MBA is not useful. I am still waiting for an explanation for why companies would use it as a discriminating criterion then.

A person with a 4 year degree will average $1 Million more income in their life than a person without a college degree. Take away useless liberal majors and that number is likely closer to 2 Million. In addition educated people are more likely to have better financial habits, thus retaining and growing their net worth more than tradies/uneducated people.
School isn't for some people, if you can make an honest living without getting an education more power to you. However, bragging about making $X without an education is akin to bragging about selling yourself short.

Are you saying our economy rewards generalization over specialization?
We clearly live in the most specialized economy in human history. It's amazing that you dispute this.

When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.
