Does MBA help?

I have personally done a lot of soul searching on this subject. I have found that one of the most valuable things you take away from business school might not be the MBA itself, per se, but the connections you make with other people. The network of people you are exposed to both from a professional and academic standpoint can be extremely helpful in getting your business set up, helping you in a pinch, or basically getting free advice.

I have worked with brilliant MBAs, although I would argue that those people are probably brilliant regardless of their degrees, and I have worked with seasoned and extremely intelligent non-MBAs. It depends on what you think the MBA will do for you. Unfortunately, having an MBA doesn't make things any easier, but you do gain the confidence and also the support network to help you out if you are in a jam. That has been my experience.
