How much longer do you think you'll work in consulting? Do you know what you'd like to do after? I'd like to work on building my own business in a few years, probably after I complete my MBA.

Why do you think you need an MBA to start a business? MBAs are marginally beneficial at best.

Unless the company you start you plan on only employing MBAs then you don’t need it

I go back and forth between this all the time, i want to be paid like a consultant without the burnout of consulting lol
