Before I Die... I want to have truly lived.

I recommend an MBA. More for the exposure to the motivation behind organizations than anything else. Since no one individual can make lasting impact alone, the world is ran through organizations, whether political, for-profit, or non-profit. The MBA gives you the tools with which to understand how organizations run, and being a creative individual, you will find ways to apply your natural talents to these new tools. For example, my background before MBA school was semiconductors. Very creative, but very technical. Then I went to business school, and soon decided I wanted to apply my technical creativity to a more artistic endeavor. So I enrolled in film school. Now, I am an independent filmmaker. Considering how pragmatic an individual I am, I would never have made this transition if my MBA hadn't provided tools to understand this new industry and how to position myself to benefit from it. the bottom line: your world just gets bigger. How far out you want to go is up to you. Hope this helps.
