As someone has their MBA I thought it was a great ROI for myself. 

Unlike FortuneTakers, a formal education/degree from a reputable accredited university/college is: 1) not only something you can actually put on your resume, 2) has actual real value (please don't tell me a JD, MBA, MD/DO, DDS, BS/MS in MIS/Engineering have no real-life value) and 3) what's required by virtually all employers out there, as well as, if you are a small business owner, by various government agencies in order to do business with them (e.g., get an SBA loan), but they are far more transparent in terms of:I) revenue and expenses -- you see, Universities don't claim that real estate is their main business.

I went to UCLA for the part-time MBA program which cost 40k a year for three years. 

Now that I am sitting on a ton of real estate, I paid cash for my MBA, and max out my 401K in the first month of the year purely to reduce my taxable income, which nets me more return (between gains in market, employer contribution and tax benefits) than the cash on cash return from rents one just one house, not counting appreciation, and I'm not all in ONE asset class.

So I just got admitted to University of Cincinnati MBA program.

Also, I would follow your parents advice and finish grad school - MBA?

Im currently a graduate student at Wilkes University pursuing my MBA degree.

The manager of the fund is of Australian origin and MBA qualified and the architect for development progects is from USA.

It's the difference between hiring someone to write your college essay versus having someone teach you to write a good essay yourself.

(I'm not a tax person, lawyer, CPA, CFP, MBA, RN, etc. so please don't take this as professional advice.
