An MBA in hospitality management could make sense especially since you have restaurant experience already.

Actually what lots of people have suggested. I enjoy being on my feet, meeting people etc. I have restaurant and bank management experience as well.

Obviously I know people don't know me that well to offer sound advice about fields, guess I was curious financially if people felt it was worth the investment.

In that case, I think you should do the opposite of what they say.

The money doesn't matter as much if it's a lifestyle change. You don't want to be a work zombie at 50 showing up and being miserable watching the clock all day. Even if you don't make more money, if you are happier and don't weigh yourself down with too many loans it's going to be good for your life.

Unless you are going to college to be a lawyer, doctor, etc., you are wasting your time and money. College one of the biggest scams this country has going. Pre-school a close second.

Seek out people in the industry to speak with before you do. Contact an HR person at Lettuce. They are always looking for good people. Ask them what they would do as far as an MBA in that industry.

What about people who keep records of their football picks, but don't figure in the vig on losses?

So, getting more interviews is stupid? being exposed to more job possibilities is a 'Stupid thing"

Going to grad school does not necessarily mean he will more interviews. Those interviews do not necessarily mean that its an "absolute truth, 100% guaranteed" that he "will make more money" than he is right now. Sure its likely, but certainly not an "absolute truth."

Stupid was the correct adjective to use there.

Nope, 100% Guaranteed!

You are the last person that should be advocating not going to college as a good thing.

I can get behind the "college is a scam" way way way more than preschool is.

Bon Jovi concerts are the biggest scam. Paying $85 for 2 hours of shitty music performed by 40 year olds.

College is only a scam if you overpay. If your folks have tons of cash, then it doesn't really matter....go wherever.
