Couldn't agree more. Especially the MBA.

I paid $50K for my EX to go to Harvard's Officers & Presidents Management courses, which ran 3 weeks on campus, go home for a year, come back for 3 weeks go home for a year come back for 3 weeks and graduate with a Harvard Business Degree. Many of the students did not speak English... and it was all case studies with voluntary classroom discussion. You were not required to participate in classroom discussion, you were not required to read the assignments, you were not required to speak English (which is all the professors spoke) and you were not required to take any examinations. In essence, if your company could afford to be without you for 9 weeks and pay the $50K over a 2 year period, then you could pass. After graduating from Havard, she, the EX, was so high on herself, she did not have to listen to anyone else any more. She especially did not have to listen to the common sense and real school MBA trained husband. So, she took our business with retained earnings of nearly $2Million and drove it 6 feet under. Two years after the divorce I found out about outstanding tax liabilities of over $1Million that she had run up also.
