So, I currently have a bachelors in Finance and I'm contemplating either getting a 2nd bachelor's in Accounting, or Master's of Accountancy. There are def other factors involved in my decision, but I wanted to get some broad, general opinions.

    Generally a Masters is only two years compared to the 4 of a bachelors. I would go for two, have the MD by your name and a more specific skill set in accounting. IMO.

    You want to build up your resume right ? Go for the Masters I think you will make more money with a masters than you will with to Bachelors

    I would do a Masters. TONS of people have Bachelors in Accounting .... not so many with a Masters. And you can work on getting your CPA.

    Masters if your earning potential increases substantially in your field.

    Master's hands down! No point in duplicating.

    Masters. Don't stick with another Bachelors. I'm in marketing so if I had a choice, I'd advance to masters.
