Would you rather invest in an MBA at a top tier school or invest in real estate in a tier 1 city?

Sorry for the snarky reply- but if you have to ask this question, it is better that you invest in the real estate. You will not appreciate the value of a top tier MBA. Again, dont mean any offence. We live by the paradigms we know and there are mindsets which we have grown up with which is difficult to change.

M7 will be worth it even after going into debt. Then you can buy the whole tier 1 city

Not sure how they're at the same level. One benefits you for life and the other is uncertain.

Just to clarify a tier 1 city where in the long run there is high probability property value will appreciate and I’m also thinking about debt and opportunity costs of going to school if you already work in consulting

Both

What if you don't have money for both?

What do you want to do with your career? If you want to own and manage a bunch of rental properties for yourself and that’s really it then an mba might not be worth it. If this is a side gig and you want a career in business or maybe scaling that real estate play into something bigger then a top tier MBA could be very helpful.

Well i got mine with 6YOE but that was long ago. These days the YOE is lower maybe 3 or 4 years? You should look at average ages I think many programs post profiles.

MBA is less risky, there’s always a market for MBAs, who knows what the market will be like for real estate next year

Hi fishes,
I'm 22 and planning to take a life insurance. I'm comparing all policies and max life seems attractive as it has good claim settlement ratio and less premiums. But there is no office near our area. My worry is that if there is a need to claim in future, it can be done all online by my nominee? Is it recommended to take policy online in any platform(like policybazaar)?
Other options I'm considering are SBI life, HDFC life which offices are available in my locality.
Please guide
