A Graduate Degree That Pays Off: The M.B.A.

Tekman especially now more than ever living in this Post Covid-19 pandemic remote work is becoming more of the norm even at higher-paying salaries. I haven't been in the office permanently for years but for occasional meetings and work sessions. Amazon for example is always seeking talent (both tech and non-tech areas) with many positions around $150K+.

 

The VUL DHA program would be useful if maybe you were established in a Health IT position. Since you are in Southern California you should also look at UCLA Health or Kaiser Permanente job sites for example as they are frequently Business & IT Software QA Engineer or Testing positions

 

So, none. Got it.

 

Six Flags must read the article, there is no more free food. The most expensive membership, $230.00 per year comes with a 50% discount on some of the food and merchandise. If 50% discount on food at Six Flags, properly more expensive than the regular price outside of Six Flags.

Looks like they still sell meal plans and they’re dirt cheap. I’ve never been to Six Flags, no idea on what food options they have. Just got back from a week at Disney though and the mouse is much more astute as a standover man, particularly when it comes to shaking coins for meal plans. Not sure how Six Flags can pull their pricing in a sustainable or profitable manner.

Would also argue that the opportunity cost of the engineer doing this, were staggering high. Especially in their regional labor market.

Pre and post pandemic are different worlds for now.
And it ain't over yet.

 

I am not a huge fan of the general MBA. The degrees tend expensive and the positions that really pay well are looking for graduates of a small handful of elite business schools. Not to say there's never any reason to get a non-top-flight degree but it strikes me as a dicey proposition financially. But here's the thing: I think there's a lot of potential value in earning a business related master's degree that represents a useful skill set. I think a Master of Accountancy, or master's in taxation or IT or even HR might well be worth the expense and effort. To indulge in a trite phrase, the holder of such a degree has something of substance to "bring to the table."
