Interesting point. My perspective on money was to not care, and take out a career loan to cover it. My thought is that a degree from a top-tier school will lead to a highly paid job, which means that I wouldn't have too much problem paying back the loan. e.g. $120k avg salary after HBS MBA would make a $80k debt manageable.
My interests are tech-sector, corp dev and corp strategy (but these will probably develop more over the next few years). My initial plan is to work a couple of years in management consulting post-MBA (Bain/McKinsey/BCG) and see where that takes me. In terms of school, I am thinking Harvard / Chicago / Stanford, but have not done a heck of a lot of research into it at this stage. Business cycle is obviously an issue (see articles in the news on 09 MBAs struggling to get a job), but hopefully graduating in 2013 will be in an upswing.
What sector do you work in?
