If you have ~$50k saved up, you’ve always wanted to invest in property, and it’s a buyers market in real estate right now, is it a bad idea to invest in a rental property before taking a $100k loan for a 1 yr MBA? Or should I be throwing that $50k at the (sticker price) program?

In this interest rate environment I would sleep better at night taking less loans

That’s true but real estate is generally a long term hold play regardless

I had the same question! Curious what you decide

I am 22 years after college experience and worked in consulting for 15 years and currently in industry for 7 years.

Here is my question
Would MBA be any good for me especially looking at strategy side?
I don’t want to spend $200K and would probably go online MBA in a mid tier school. Are those any good?
Looking forward to your great input on this topic

Does an MBA (US) make sense for me? Male, Indian, Age 32, Married working in tech consulting with 10 YOE. Base is $165 with steady increases and bonus is typically 15%. I eventually do want to cross the $300K threshold but I know stopping work for 2 years and getting and MBA probably won’t get me a $300K job right away. Becoming a manger in my current company/path will probably get me there in terms of TC. Also considering EMBA from a good school (Wharton Global, Duke, Kellogg, Booth).
