April 29th, 2009…..As I learn more about business development, pitches, strategy, etc I just keeping thinking…”man I should really get my MBA”. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to justify the opportunity cost, considering I probably wouldn’t get a full ride.I’ve decided that I will be learning through the MBA programs that my friends attend, without actually being enrolled in school haha. Yes, I have been sitting in on random classes, and even participating in them. I am actually going to enroll a class at some point, but for now no one has said anything about my presence in class. They kinda look at me funny sometimes, probably thinking to themselves “who is this guy”? but o well, what can you do? haha

With the help of all my friends and business partners, who are getting MBA’s at the top schools in the nation, I hope to gain the knowledge that will help my latest venture be even more successful.

For those of you who don’t know my friends, and can’t sneak into classes, don’t fret. There are some great resources online, and as the blog continues I’ll definitely be talking about them. One of the most recent finds one of my friends put me on to is Venture Hacks. Great start-up info there. Check out this Stanford class that was posted on their blog…
