Here are the MBA options that I think make sense. Source: wife at elite MBA program full time, and I work with a wide array of MBA havers, so I get to see a lot of stuff. Get a full time MBA if you are going to switch careers. Have a very strong plan for how the MBA supports this switch. Fund the MBA yourself. Only go to an elite school (or an incredibly focused school eg UVM Sustainable Agriculture MBA that meets your needs) if you are going to do this. It is expensive. Plan accordingly. You may receive some tuition support but as a (i think) white cis male you probably aren't getting poo poo, and MBA programs are expensive and should have a ROI for the student. In addition to tuition getting a full time MBA is expensive. There is a lot of socialization and activity that occurs, which may seem silly, but it's building you the connections you need for your future career. Budget money for this. Get a part time/executive MBA if you are staying in your career or at least within a small degree of separation of your career. You want to go to the most prestigious reasonably close school that you can find. Two options 1) Company pays. If there are any restrictions to specific schools, and those schools are not good, do not take the money. If the terms are onerous, do not take the money 2) You pay. Do this if your company sucks or you don't want to be tied down. Third option - you just need some paperwork, in which case either 1) take your company's money and go to Strayer or Ball So Hard U or whatever the gently caress 2) pay for a cheap and not difficult but not total garbage tier school yourself congrats on your successes and i wish you the best for the future!

Tim Thomas posted:yup although on the other hand, if the max someone can do is 3.5 kids, and the kids are spending 45 hours a week with them, the teachers probably should be making more than minimum wage? oh i agree that the teachers should be paid but i have no idea how you make it work on less money

I'm not a fan of including cars as assets - I know technically yes they are, but they're usually rapidly depreciating and it's not like you can readily convert them to cash since you still gotta drive to work and the grocery store, etc. an EMBA at U of M Ross, where my wife got her regular MBA, is $163,000 at sticker price for Michigan residents.

I'm risk averse (class of 2009 reprezent) so I like to keep way more cash in HYSA than that. We are probably keeping about 10-12 mos of our true expenses. I get paid monthly. We try to make sure that there's about a month in expenses in checking before I get paid, and then cover expenses and and allocations, and dump the rest to HYSA house slush fund after that.
