Should i take MBA or a master of finance?


Question:
I have a bachelor degree in Business, been working for 3 yrs as a trader in stocks and futures.

Answer:
Having worked in recruiting.. the letters MBA mean almost everything.. so.. should I say more?
MBA is kinda general .. MS in Finance is more focused .. i think first go with MBA then MS in finance later on if you feel like ? ( cause u already have the background ) MBA will give you boost in the short term and MS finance will give the boost in the long run as it would make u an expert in a specific area.
If you want to grow in the investment field, why not a CFA.

MBA if you want to be a manager or an analyst. Master of Finance if you want to work on the technical side of the field.
An MBA will open more doors but an MS in finance could lead you into very high paying jobs, very quickly.
Also, with an MBA, you really get out of it what you put into it. Whatever you do...get the MBA or MS in finance from a good, top 200 school. Do your self a favor and don't get your degree from a school like the University of Phoneix Online. Any school that claims you can get an MBA in a year is doing something WRONG.
