They do have us beat...but look how much more land they have than India. We will out-'populate' them by spreading out to North America, Europe, Australia, and the Caribbean Isle.

Now we just need to penetrate South America and Antartica.

The Chinese will self-suffocate. They are over populated, over polluted, and build things of "Chinese quality". Hell, they are killing off their own babies by selling "Chinese-made" baby formula.

As for economic domination, I think Indians will beat them out. We are generally better at making and keeping our money better than anyone else (along-side the Koreans).

That's enough of my 'pro-Indian' rheotric, there are many outsiders that may be reading my posts and take me serious on this jest.

Anybody out there going for their MBA?

I've been seriously considering it, even though I'm a bit old (35) by MBA school standards. I've been looking into forensic accounting.

I already have my MBA (along with a Masters in Phys. Therapy).

I sort of regret not waiting on it by one or two years. JD/MBA programs seem to be gaining in popularity. When I was finishing up my MBA, I think there were only two programs in the country that had a JD/MBA program (Marquette University and Kellog).

In today's standards, yes, I think you're a bit too old at 35 (but don't let that stop you). I did my MBA when I was 28/29 and I was one of the older students in my program. There were only two older students than me (one was self-employeed in his 50's, the other was in his late 30's and already at an executive level with his larger corporate employer).

Education is key and king. It allows you to open the doors to getting/gaining experience quickly. Experience is what pays though.
