First Term Free at Walden!

You're not alone. I thought about an MBA years ago, but I knew I would be too bored to get through it.

Does anyone study business administration because it's interesting? I guess there's someone out there.

I'm not pursuing an MBA because most of my peers at work (40s-50s-60s) who hold MBAs said it was a complete waste of time and money. Nearly all of the graduates in my employer's MBA program are now at the bottom of the dog pile at work. The MBA program itself is now finally defunct. The most successful MBAs at my work are those who joined recently, age <40, and earned them from top-25 programs. I'm not doing much better either so I'm pretty gun shy as far as earning another degree. That's why I completely skipped this thread and pretty much the whole forum since 2016 when I got my BACS/BA Math and my initial promotion. Things have gone totally south since then at work.

I really wish it wasn't so because there are some really cool ways to earn AA/BA/MA degrees in this forum like in this thread. Business administration is not interesting at all to me. As interesting as the process to earn degrees as described in this forum, I'm not gonna earn any degrees unless there is a direct financial benefit at work and not just vague promises of promotions. Vague promises are broken promises. I don't want to be the guy with a billion degrees and IT certifications but a crap position and nothing else to show for it.
