MBA if top 20 and network as hard as you can.

i don't even know what the fuck the other thing is, sounds like a meme basket weaving degree.

good luck anon.

>>18582224
There are two concentrations at my local state college (near Bay Area): MBA in Finance, or MBA in Entrepreneurship and Global Business.

I have a percolating job opportunity with a cryptocurrency as a sort of Communications Chief, developing trusted relationship with the founder. If I can nuture that, then this degree would compliment that. But I primarily the degree should lead to as many options as possible. I'm leaning toward Finance as it can be applied to any business. It teaches more of the technical aspects of investing, real estate finance, securities, etc.

Thanks anon.
>>
>>18582223
the fuck is mba in finance?

an mba is what you get after you already have a degree that is industry related. some faggot with only an mba is 100% useless

you sound like a business degree autist
>>
>>18582226
I might be.

An MBA in Finance is an MBA with a concentration of classes in Finance.

However there are plenty of people that change careers by getting a graduate degree in a field they want to go into. I'm 41 and have spent years working in the trades, and some in retail management. I took pre med classes in my mid thirties but realized being a doctor is just a version of a high end wage cuck. There is anohter option of an MBA in Business Analytics in Healthcare, which may provide more specialized training to get a job in that particular field.

This program is designed for working professionals, so obviously getting on full time with that crypto currency would be ideal while I pursued this degree.

Just kill yourself fuck it man why not

My billlionaire real estate mogul friend/mentor was supportive of the move so maybe you should learn to suck a dick? Singular focus would suit your autism well.

>>18582223
Cant you do both anon? Wouldnt they both further eachother?
>>
>>18582230

Sorry if the post was unclear.

They are two different concentrations of the MBA program at my local state college. You have to choose one.

lol Did he go to college and start his own business by then having worked his way up to that position or was he given an already developed business created by his family i.e. mom and dad?
>>
entrepreneurship sounds like better and cooler word than Global Business, I would go with that one
>>
>>18582233
He's completely self made. Originally wanted to be a PhD in psychology while he was building houses, and was married at a young age. He ended up being given the deed to a house when the owner bolted town on a house he had worked on. The bank let him assume the loan for free (this was the 70s). He then got his real estate licence and sold houses for a year, while learning to flip them. He was worth 10m within 5 years, then got into housing and apartment development in early 80s, and mid 80s recession, played it safe, and was only man standing in his metro area (only guy banks would lend to), and by early 90s recovery, had the run of the place and basically built a couple towns in Colorado. Now assets fully shifted to west coast and strictly in apartments.

He dives a honda accord and lives in a 2000 square foot house in a nice neighborhood. He's one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet but you get the feeling he's an absolute killer when needed. He's basically like a second father/uncle to me.
>>
>>18582234
Man I need to learn write more clearly.

The two options are "Finance"

And "Entrepreneurship and Global Business".

All of this is just self-glorifying paper-shuffling where you learn a whole lot of nothing then fellate your way through positions

Also, the Finance concentration might make it easier to work for him, as there are classes on Real Estate financing.

Billionaire you jealous fuck.

I was a finish carpenter for ten years and when I finally injured my back for the final time I was working in high end custom homes. If my body held up I'd love to be able to keep working with my hands. I applied for a shop boy job at a glass shop and they wouldn't hire me because they know I want to go back to school. I'm caught in the middle right now and I need to find something I can do that doesn't involve physical work, and I'm not going to sit at a computer all day. Business is exciting and interesting and involves people, which I'm good at.
>>
>>18582241
This is objectively wrong in the EU. I literally got offered a job with 150% higher pay than I would have otherwise just for spending another year after my bachelors to get an MBA.

Starting your own company can work, too, I am part of a startup that is doing remarkably well as a side-project for me, but I dont mind getting a bunch of money for sitting on /pol/ all day and pretending to do work in a big corporation either.
>>
>>18582240
Making money has never really been an interest of mine. I preferred to have meaningful work where I could see the physical results.

If you want to get into real estate, go the finance route and network with real estate investors around you. Work for your friend for a few years while you learn the ropes. With interest rates the way they are, it's difficult to lose money in real estate.

I get the feeling a lot of people here don't get how the real world works.

A BS in business is probably not worth much. But an MBA can land you a job.

You can also be successful with the right connections without a degree.

Also, there is such a thing as finance. We live in a capitalist society and just because some of you are from rural economies and hate (((bankers))) doesn't mean there isn't value in knowing how the world of investing works. A lot of you just sound really bitter and disillusioned. Someone posts an ambition on here and all you crabs just try to pull them back into the bucket. Pretty pathetic.

I've thought about it.

There is a business analytics in healthcare degree as well, which involves some bioinformatics. Could go well with my pre med stuff, and also open the door for med school down the road for a MD/MBA combo.

Healthcare is obviously fucked right now and need a major innovation overhaul. That one might have best career opportunities.

>>18582274
Do you know a lot of out of work MBAs?
>>
>>18582223
depending what you want to do OP, clearly entrepreneurship would be good if you want to be self employed but the MBA will may actually get you a job as a shit manger of McDonalds or something with hopefully better prospects as you get REAL experience of what your doing.

Personally i did 2 years of community college doing business management and i am now moving to a city to get an internship so when i am asked
>can you actually do the job we are hiring you for
i wont tell them i learned how to swim by reading a textbook on it
>>
Entreprenuership gives you way more satisfaction. Plus, you have way more control over your life.
>>
>>18582225
I wouldn't try Entrepreneurship if it isn't at Haas or Stanford.
>>
>>18582250
It's a little different in the US. An MBA at a reputable school can double or triple your salary.
>>
>>18582223
MBA Finance is a better option, it's the best MBA out there along with HR.

All the best!.

>>18582281

Indian dude has more cred. Thanks anon. Was leaning that way. Great advice. You've been in the business world for a while?
>>
>>18582279
idk how the student loans work in the US but really you may end up with a better education and for cheaper if you actually apprentice with a real entrepreneur than get taught by a professor with a MBA and zero experience
>>
>>18582283
Most of the professors at my local state college are entrepreneurs themselves and highly integrated into local biz community. The program is designed for working professionals, takes 2-3 years, so the job I have during the program would be like an internship, but better.

It is also very fairly priced, and depending on my job, could be paid for up to 50%.

Yupp.
I actually wrote my Ex Gfs essays and got her through HEC Paris.

>>
>>18582280
MBA's are taught how to run businesses, why would a company hire someone without experience to run their business?
>>
>>18582286
Because people do an MBA from a good college only after a work experience of 5+ years.

Which is a highly rewarding college degree.

As for all you ambitionless, success hating, loser loving incompetents, microwave a fresh plate of tendies and use the good ketchup this time as a treat to sooth your hurt feeling as this was clearly a difficult topic for you.

Something to consider.

Real estate is not the end goal. I'm not looking to work for my wealth mentor. I'm looking to create options. But still, you make a good point. I have some undergrad in math from my pre med.
>>
>>18582305

Look man, you have a warped view of the world from too much time on pol. The real world is a lot more nuanced, ok? There are tons of opportunities and there will only be more in the coming years because of Trump. Let go of that defeatist attitude. There are opportunities to work for small companies or start ups with guys you respect and trust, and education is a great advantage for that. I wish you all the best, no matter your path.

The only "problem" with a MSF (I have one) is that a lot of the "top" business schools (Wharton, Harvard, Stanford, etc) don't actually have a program. It's relatively new to the US. So, I'd actually say a top 5-10 MBA might be better than a MSF, if only for the branding... there are a number of factors to consider. MIT, Vanderbilt, Princeton have MSF programs, though MIT is more quant and Princeton is more computational. I didn't go to a real target school, but I'm still doing breddy well.
>>
>>18582223
'It's not what you know, it's who you know.' Daily reminder that there is great wisdom in almost all clichéd sayings, especially this one. Don't stress too much about education, it's all horseshit to your employers. I know 'networking' sounds like sucking dick, but you need to do it. You need connections to go places. Then once you've actually landed the job, then you demonstrate your competence.
>>
>>18582312
I just looked and my college doesn't offer an MSF, but and MBA Finance isn't too too different. I checked another local (private) college that offers both and they are comparable according to them, MSF just more focused on financial services industry training, which isn't really my goal.

I'd like to be involved in the financing aspect of a small and growing company and ultimately maybe work for or put together a VC firm that focuses on health care innovation.

>>18582317
That's true.

Also, can still be entrepreneur with Finance degree. Frankly would be taken more seriously than a degree in "Entrepreneurship".

Was considering that one though due to current role with global blockchain.

Yeah guys blockchain is really where I want to be. Not a brogrammer and no way I want to learn, so gonna focus on the money and mgmnt side of it.

The value of an MBA is not what you learn, that's trivial (and if you are in a disruptive startup, useless). It is the reputation and alumni network.

Some firms have a policy to always interview/hire from certain schools. Other times the name itself will carry you through the door.

The concentration is important insofar as who you want to be in class with. Finance you will be dealing with, I imagine, heavy quant types who might be manipulative math artists.

Entrepreneurship/whatever communications you will probably deal with high energy manipulative extroverts who will be conning investors out of money and manipulating developers who would do the real work of the business.

So up to you who you want to be.

>>
You're asking the wrong question. Finance v. Entrepreneurship is not important. What's important is the "state school near Bay Area" part. Sounds like one of the UCs or CalStates, but not Berkeley. An MBA from a school like that might actually reduce your employability, and most likely will not make you more employable. If your work is finance-related (e.g. you're an accountant or finance type), the MBA might help marginally. In any event it's not worth the opportunity and out-of-pocket costs. In your area, only Berkeley and Stanford would be worth it. You really need to talk to actual hiring managers in your field. You can also talk to MBAs, but keep in mind that most people don't want to make themselves look bad. Don't sweat the concentration, nobody will care.
