    Congrats Ben! Getting into Wharton is such a huge accomplishment, but you absolutely deserve it. It's amazing how you've grown this channel through sheer hard work, consistency, and determination. I remember finding this channel about a year ago when you had less than 500 subs, you've come so far so fast! I can't wait to see where Wharton takes you and how rareliquid evolves from here. You're gonna kill it!

      I'm not sure that having an MBA bears much relevance when raising early stage VC? From my experience, I'd imagine it's actually one of the last things they would pay notice to when assessing you and your team. (Coming from someone who does want to get an MBA at some point over the next 10 years).

    I also recently applied for an MBA program during the pandemic because the GMAT requirement was being waived. It's not a top business school but they recently became AACSB and their tuition is not crazy expensive which is a plus since I'm paying for my MBA without any scholarships or grants. Wish you the best on this new journey !

    That's funny. I'm in Colombia rn on vacation and just met the students of the wharton mba program there on a party. They booked a whole club which made sense as they were over 500 people including partners as well. They told me it's tradition to go on a trip with people from school and they chose Colombia. I spoke to some of them and they all seemed pretty cool ;)
    I (as a European) was just surprised that like 50% seemed to have an Asian background. Guess they're the most hard working.
    Anyway, congrats! You'll have an amazing time!
