If so, was it helpful?

Would you join a full-time MFE program if already working in HFT as a trader but lack a quant background? I have experience at a couple of well known prop firms, but started my career at a "traditional" firm, then moved to a HFT one, where I slowly picked up programming (plus completed a part-time masters in CS). I obviously don't need it to break into the industry, but in a performance based industry, an MFE could be a great investment. Recent bonuses have been good by the standards of the younger crowd here, but do not match my current goals or even past achievements.
 
No, if anything, they are probably higher. What I'm asking is do you think that I could learn anything useful enough to increase profits substantially? Maybe this belongs in the career advice forum instead.
