Please don't.

The universities and schools just want your business and money.

The future is no longer in education on the things the schools teach.

The future is in investing. And these courses don't have masters one.

Please don't be silly and waste your time and money.

In investing must start early. Time is money. Compounding.

If u ownself go pay money to study masters? Then forget it. It really does not increase your chance of getting a promo or having a higher pay as well. Too many in the market.

Your company pays you to go study for it. Different matter altogether, meaning, they are anchoring you for career advancement. But still need to depend on yourself.

NO. It does not increase your pay.

But it also depends on situation.

I did my MBA some years back. One of my peers told me that he was not chosen for a promotion and another candidate got it becoz that candidate has an MBA. He is in management in an MNC. So if you are in a management post then it may have some influence in your career progression.

Not only it doesnt increase your pay. It decrease your chances of landing a job cos overqualified. Unless your skill set is so niche and high in demand

I think one should only pursue masters if you want to upgrade yourself or to do something that is different from your bachelor degree. Dont do it with the expectation of a job promotion etc.

Get masters and go overseas.

If stay local, no need. Your top uni cert doesnt hold a candle to overseas non top uni.

nope, wouldn't boost my salary, but with a master it open more doors for interview, especially for job that needs technical knowledge .
