MBA at age of 40!


Dear All,
I am almost 37 years now and would like to go for MBA (even though it is a bit late now). The best and only accredited school in Egypt is the American University in Cairo (AUC), my question is, does it worth it to pay 400+ thousand Egyptian Pounds knowing that I am not looking forward to work abroad after finishing my MBA where I will turn 40 years old then. Or, I can get it from other good school, but not accredited, such as ESLSCA especially that , again, I most probably will use the MBA to keep working in Egypt where ESLSCA will be sufficient to use it at the local market level.
Note: ESLSCA MBA will cost around 100 thousand EGP, meaning 1/4 the one by AUC.
I appreciate your advises.
Thanks

Thanks for your inquiry and interest to do MBA at this stage of age. For me I am much interested though I am not same age like you. I am at 27 now. I think age doesn't matter the passion and inspiration is most important to reach your target and goal. And I believe people can do everything if he/she tries his best. You can go for it. Good Luck!
