Back to School, again

Alternate title: "Lifetime Student?"

When I was a kid, I had a button that said "No Condo, No MBA, No BMW."  I don't know if it was originally my parents' button, or if I had picked it out myself.  I can assure you that I didn't really know what it meant, only that most adults who saw the button reacted positively.  Suffice it to say, most of the adults I came into contact with were not yuppies, the group the joke was obviously poking fun at.

Well, here we are 20 years later, and I'm one step closer to becoming "the guy" the button was making fun of.  Next week I return to school for the third time in seven years... this time I am enrolled in the Master of Business Administration in Technology Management program, again at the University of Phoenix online.  Yes, that's an MBA program.

In two years, after I earn the MBA, I guess I'll buy that BMW.  But I'll pass on the condo, I prefer my single family home, thank you.
