Bhatti would argue you should not have pursued an MBA because with no cost and no reward, your lost time is worth something. Odds are whether that time was spent with your family or starting Microsoft in your garage, it was more valuable than the experience of sitting through MBA classes. Would you consider the MBA to have been worth your time?
It may serve a purpose later down the line in my career, but within the intermediate timeframe, it hasn't justified it's cost. I'm just glad I wasn't the one footing the bill for it. Yeah, I had to spend time working towards it, but when I chose to get it my kids were very young and my wife benefited from that b/c I stayed home a lot due to studying, doing homework, et al.
All I'm saying is if I had to pay for it out of my own pocket, I wouldn't have gotten it.

I'm in the same boat. My employer now is paying for me to get my MBA as we speak. I had no interest in paying for it; however, if they want to pay the bill then I don't mind getting a little extra on my resume for future use.
