Bangalore: Here is a reality check for all MBA aspirants to believe. An M.B.A. is not the ticket to huge paychecks and unlimited career growth. There are a large number of business legends who made it great without an accreditation certificate of business schools. Executives who hold upper- rank positions in business rarely hold an MBA. So, before you decide to choose an MBA, think whether it is really worth to have an MBA by spending significant amount of money and effort.
Here are some successful and intelligent players in the business world who made it big without an MBA.
Warren Buffett
Buffet is one of the most successful investors in the world and he earned more than $52 billion dollars without an MBA degree on hand. Hard to believe but yet, he is the third richest man in the world. He holds three names "Wizard of Omaha", "Oracle of Omaha and the "Sage of Omaha".
Larry Ellison
Lawrence Joseph "Larry" Ellison is co-founder and chief executive of Oracle Corporation. He announced as the third richest person in America in 2011. His personal wealth is $33 billion and he earned it without an MBA degree. Ellison was highly inspires by "A Relational Model of Data for Large Shared Data Banks", a database system written by Edgar F. Codd. Once he remarked to MBA grads "Now that you have an M.B.A., you will never be as successful as me!"
Ross Perot
Ross Perot is a billionaire and former presidential candidate. Despite attending any college Perot made his company Electronic Data Systems earn $2.4 billion in 1984. That is how he established a current net worth of $4.3 billion. Thatâs indeed a pretty good achievement for a Texan without a formal business degree. Perot feels that real-life experience can be superior to textbook learning. And he once remarked, "When I go to the Harvard Business School, I talk to them about the real world. At business schools they live and think in terms of organizational charts. But life is a spiderweb; everything crosses at odd angles."
Christine Comaford
Christine Comaford has held different positions from Buddhist monk to geisha trainee during her earlier work environment. Christine has become an entrepreneur without completing high school or college. Later on she became the CEO and multimillionaire. She has also worked in Microsoft, Lotus, Adobe and Apple as an operational high-tech officer. By holding all these position and power she still says âWhen it comes to success in business, an M.B.A. degree is optional.â
Bill Gates
Bill Gate is the richest man in the world with a net worth of nearly $56 billion. He earned and got fame not because of his college education. He dropped out from Harvard to launch Microsoft. Gates personally thinks school does little to get ready students for the actual world, he says, "Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off, and very few employers are interested in helping you find yourself."
