If you decided to study for an MBA in 2001 and invested the average sum required - some $162,000 you could expect a total increase in salary over your career of some $1.4 million (in 2001 dollar value). this is a 17.6 rate of return on your investment.
This level of ROI is remarkable, some three times higher return than Treasury Bills over the same period, and 4% better than the Dow Jones Industrial Average. And this is for the average, straight forward MBA. If you studied an online MBA, your initial investment would be much less as you wouldn't have forgone so much income, so your rate of return would be even higher.
