"MBA" after your name on a business card ?

I’m an L3 candidate just like you Iteracom. There’s no need for personal attacks.

I have yet to meet someone who failed at getting an MBA. That’s the difference.
 
Come to India where everybody, I mean literally everbody, has an MBA. A place where people say M.B.A. stands for “Means Bugger All.”
Don’t think I’ll put CFA on my card though.
 
When I complete my Masters, and then my PhD, I’m going to have
Dr Newsuper, CFA
on my business card. And Fidelity will beg me to work for them.

no way.
Dr Newsuper, Elementary School Diploma, High School Diploma, Babysitter’s Course Diploma, BA, Capt. of Ringette Team, CFA, CFA, CFA
 
Because an MBA is a bu11sh1t degree and no one cares?
Before others flame me, let me say I certainly understand why people get them, and it’s a smart decision for many people. I will freely admit I could not get into HBS or Wharton but would go in a heartbeat if offered the chance.
