Last panel is wrong. Genie would just grant him an MBA from a top tier school

I once looked through a textbook from my friend's MBA course. The first thing I noticed was in a highlighted box in the chapter on business negotiating: "Your skill at negotiating will affect the outcome of the negotiations."

These are the people that make 10X what I make.

In Czech we say MBA means Mladý, Blbý, Arogantní - Young, Dumb, Arrogant.

I have an MBA and I can assure you, most are not young.

Depends. It's a business here and there are lots of young people with MBAs and not enough experience to contextualise the things learned within the masters. I mean, some are even doing it post grad.

From my past experience with these types of people, I have a very low opinion on young people with MBAs. Business degree holders who want a shortcut to the top.

My comment was mostly a self deprecating joke, denying the only neutral part of the statement. But you're right, wide range of ages in any business program.

Whoops. My bad!
