will go through points 1 by 1.
1. Berkeley/wharton. I believe that whether wharton is worth it depends on your career goals, if you want to be master of the universe, then wharton, if you want a cosy brand management job, then berkeley,
2. my point is that ROI cannot INTRINSICALLY be measured well, options can barely be measured when there is a financial market. Academic finance professor's attempts to measure real option on real assets is a joke. to measure options on something as soft as an MBA is downright impossible. and its typical of the delusion left brained analytical people have to think they can measure these things. there is a systematic bias to underestimate this kind of option. (of course you can calibrate the bias, which is why ROI is just a tool)
3. net income versus revenue. i admit its a radical idea. but i claim that although money is money, the leisure time and the enjoyment at business school at a utilirian level is well worth the money, more worth it than a rolex watch. that is why i say net income.
4. sure there are many ways to fall into fortune's way. and b school is not the only way. but it is certainly the easiest for most people. and i haven't found a better way yet,
that's all for now. |
