Salaries for people with MBAs are higher than salaries for otherwise similar people without MBAs.  Therefore, in statistical, financial terms it is definitely worth it.  However, that does not mean it will definitely be worth it for any particular individual.

But of course by dear watson...

Jokes apart, it is defintely worth it, in this era of cut-throat competition and rising professionalism and corporate ethics, MBA is a must-have for most of the grads out there. However, it all depends on ones perspective of seeing things and where you find value-addition, for example, if you are a commerce graduate, you will definitely go for a MBA in finance to gain an upperhand in management accounting, financial management, and related topics, also it will give new avenues in your career in terms of growth and career prospect and will broaden your mindset about the realms of management.

Your MBA is your investment and it must be correlated with your professional aims. So, if you is going to make corporate career, I’m sure MBA is big advantage but if you are going to become entrepreneur you must invest in your business idea (mobile apps etc) just if your project become failure, your experience (analyzed experience) will be big strong point in next negotiations about your next projects with venture investors. They will see you invested yourself, you managed your team yourself, you have elaborated your business idea yourself, and you kept the risks yourself. So, you have experience in financial management and team management, in advertising and marketing, in recruiting, so, you are ready for next investments.

I studied marketing in Helsinki University now I’d avoid it, I’d invest my savings in mobile app based project.  I’d come to Stanford (city) and would take a leg jobs just to pay for fuel, I’d visit incubators and expanded my list of business contacts, I’d see at a industry’s leaders and tried collaborate ith and teach from them.  My CV would not be worse just if my project became failure.  

In business school you are taught by lecturers in start-up you are taught by a market it is more precious experience.
