MBAs are largely useless in terms of academic value. People do them for networking and bragging rights.
I have an MBA. Has done nothing.
You were brainwashed thinking an MBA is required to be successful.
It’s nice but not necessary. I think a law degree or cpa (preferably both) are much more useful with a lot more prestige
Most of the people I know in asset management, from PMs to traders, don’t have MBAs. That’s more of a banking/consulting thing
definitely not necessary to be successful lol. not sure where you got that preconception but you could also just be thinking narrowly in terms of occupation
The CFA is significantly more useful when it comes to landing better jobs. The MBA is just for bragging rights, it doesn't actually teach you anything
