Is it stupid to do a MBA purely for the prestige?
Hypothetically, say I'm already working a tier 1 job (PEMF,MBB,tier 1HF,top groupIBD) and a tier 1 location (NYC/London) and tier 1 comp (>20mm).
Would it make sense to forgo around 45mm in opportunity cost to get aMBAfrom a tier 1 program (INSEAD/LBS/HSW)?
There is zero reason for me to get aMBAexcept to have a fancy degree I can talk about at cocktail parties.
I can also get a JD at Yale or a doctorate at Oxbridge as a Rhodes Scholar.

Nice troll post but LOL if you're making 20m a year you would get an executiveMBAand call it a day.
Not as prestigious as a full timeMBA, it's like going to Penn vs Wharton for ug
You're right, but you would still remain a mere plebian amongst the piercing eyes of the all-powerful shadow government.
Nobody has to know if it's an executiveMBA. Your diploma still just says "MBA". You can write whatever you want on your LinkedIn / website bio or say whatever you want at cocktail parties.
另外，没有人在乎。
Is this true? Why did I get a normalMBA...
Because you had more fun. So did I.
I think the only place that it's very clear a person did an executive program and not the flagship program is on a transcript. Anywhere else, a person could fudge it if they wanted to.
The only way to upgrade your prestige at this point is to write a generation defining great American novel or perhaps proof a major open question in mathematics (RH, etc)
