[quote=Anonymous]My mom went back to school when I was in HS--she had never finished her BA and wanted to do so. I was very proud of her, but it did put significant financial stress on our family and it took a lot of time. But, it made sense professionally, because she didn't already have an undergraduate degree. And it was really important to her. But she definitely wasn't trying to prove anything to anyone. I would look hard at your finances -- can you afford to get this degree without taking on additional debt, without compromising your daughter's college fund, and while still saving for retirement? Will you be dumping significant additional responsibilities on your wife? There are other ways to network and find a new job that don't involve getting a second graduate degree. [/quote]
