I've been thinking about this way too much lately. MBA right after college or work first?

MyQuals - B.com Hons from DU

I genuinely can't figure out which one makes more sense 😭

Like on one hand I'm thinking just give CAT, get into a good college and get the MBA over while I'm still in study mode.

But then everyone keeps saying “work for 2-3 years first” and honestly that also makes sense. At least you'll know what working actually feels like before spending so much money on an MBA.

But then what if I work for 2-3 years and get too comfortable 💀

Like imagine getting used to a salary and then suddenly having to go back to assignments, exams and hostel life again.

Also idk how much those 2-3 years of work experience actually matter. Is it genuinely useful or are we all just saying it because LinkedIn people say it?

And there's also this stupid pressure of feeling like you're “behind” if you're still figuring stuff out at 24-25.

People who r actually done w their MBA, what would you do if you had to make the choice again?

Yesterday I had a bus from Delhi Kashmere Gate to my hometown at 9 PM. I thought ki ab raat ho hi gayi hai, most people would have left and traffic would be less.

Bro I was WRONGGGG. 😭

There was a huge jam just 500 metres away from the bus stand and legit ALL the buses from everywhere got stuck in and no marshall could manage. Somehow I had to wait from 9 PM to 1 AM just for the bus to reach. AND I HAD A 12 HOUR JOURNEY ONWARDS.

And Kashmere Gate was PACKED. No place to sit, barely any space to even stand. Everyone had apparently decided to travel at the same time.

My phone was also at like 12% and was basically hanging on for its life. I was just praying the bus would come before my phone died.

Finally got on the bus at around 1 AM, plugged my phone in, and felt like I had achieved something major in life. 😭

Anyway, the lesson learned here was pretty rough.

Never trust night time = less traffic during Indian festivals.

If you're travelling around Raksha Bandhan, Diwali, Holi etc., leave early, keep your phone fully charged and mentally prepare yourself for Kashmere Gate chaos 💀

Every month, there’s a new collection of numbers...

Traffic up 📈

Impressions up 📈

Keywords up 📈

Average position improved 📈

And somehow the conclusion is always, “great progress!”😂

Then comes the classic:

“We’re now ranking for 1,200 keywords.”

Cool. How many actually matter?

SEO reporting sometimes feels like checking your step counter and discovering you walked 14,000 steps around IKEA.

Technically impressive. Not necessarily productive.

Still, there’s something satisfying about watching those little graphs move upward, even when nobody fully knows what they’re moving toward.

What SEO metric do you think gets way too much attention?

I’m 20F from India and want to start investing, but I’m pretty clueless right now 😭

I have a regular income, no savings yet and want to build a cozy side income, not chase crazy returns rn..

I’ve heard people recommend index funds, mutual funds, SIPs, stocks, PPF, FDs, etc., and now I’m more confused than when I started.

Should I start with something simple like an index fund SIP? How much of my income should I ideally invest vs keep as emergency savings?

For those who started investing in their early 20s, what do you wish you knew sooner?

I've been using WhatsApp for convenience purposes but I just found out that card prices are lesser???

Do the savings add up at the month end?
