Military to REI.. MBA?

[Stas Solomon]

BP,

I am currently an E6 in the Navy and I have been serving for 7 years. I have one more year on my contract. Currently, I am working on finishing up my Bachelors degree at Rutgers University. Me and my partner have a small 5 unit portfolio that we own/manage and we have done 6 flips together in the Ohio.

I am at a crossroads and I need to decide to either invest full time or peruse an MBA in real estate. Does any of the class room stuff apply to the business, is it worth the time? What would you do with the GI Bill? As side from cutting my teeth doing deals is there any education worth pursuing?

I wholeheartedly appreciate your opinions as I have grappling with this decision for well over a year. 

V/r,

Stas
