“My parents are forcing me to go”
Wtf? Is this for real? I thought you said you’re a second year at OW, not 12 years old
Plenty of ppl are living in high COL making significantly less than an OW consultant, you’ll survive.....
Pretty sure they are making you go to MBA to find a wife/husband. Source - have Asian parents
Thanks! That's something I didn't consider and honestly finding a partner during MBA does help justify it haha
If you don’t want to go, don’t go. Shouldn’t be that difficult.
You don’t need us to tell you why you shouldn’t go. You need to tell your parents
The things you’re asking make it clear you don’t see the value in it. Totally a fair position to take, but you need to put on some big boy pants
Wouldn’t the life time earning potential of a free MBA offset some of your proposed losses?
But exactly how would the earning potential change with an MBA? Am I more likely to get high(er) paying jobs after b-school that is not open to me right now (not interested in high finance btw)? Or for the same position companies would pay more if I have an MBA on my resume?
I did my MBA part time to get best of both worlds.. no regrets!
MBA will put a pause on your comp progression at OW. But if you return, OW would pay you (or your parents?) back for most of the tuition.
Having an MBA won’t rocket you through the ranks at a top consulting firm if you’re in the door already. Nothing beats learning on the job and becoming trusted by more and more people.
If you stayed (or came back) to OW and make a real career out of it, you’d need to blow up your retirement spreadsheet. You wouldn’t need one.
Banking money in your mid 20s to shorten your path to financial freedom is a good strategy. But people with choices like “stay at OW” vs. “get a tier 1 MBA and see what happens” don’t need retirement calculators.
Part time MBA would be completely worthless coming from OW (and you wouldn’t have time for it anyway). At OW you at least come back one level above what you left as. Still, you have to decide if it’s worth it.
DM me.
Given that I don't have to go into debt at all? Some things I'm considering:
1. Forgone income, which would probably be 350k-400k by the time I actually get one
2. Saving for retirement would stall as I wouldn't be able to contribute to my 401k for 2 prime years in my late 20s, which could be worth hundreds of thousands by the time I retire thanks to compounding
Pros: expanded network, one more notch in the meritocracy scale, improved lifetime earnings. zero debt. Diversified skill set.
You can’t put a price tag on regaining your mental health. After 4 years of burnout hours in could be the perfect sanity retreat, surrounded by hundreds of equally talented peers who will fan out across the business world. If you’re think of it in pure dollars and cents you’re doing yourself a grave disservice

Lol never been on the receiving end before
You make $200K/year already? I want to die. Seriously though, the MBA will bump earnings and get you a network of it’s a top program.
You should be able to complete an MBA in 2 years or less, or attend part-time. Just marry rich and become less worried about retirement. 💍 💰
Why don’t you just take your time with a part time MBA program? One class per session for a few years, and this internal conflict you’re having won’t exist. Do you really want to spend 2 years in B school thinking in the back of your mind “is this worth it”?
