How much does post grad increase your employability by?

Hi guys, will be embarking on my degree in business soon, and was wondering whether i should further my studies upon graduation. Although it's still a good four years away, i'd like something to work forward to. Will most probably be majoring in finance. Should i take up a MSc in financial engineering or something along those lines upon graduation, or should i get an MBA after a few years of working experience?

Which would be more worthwhile in the long run, in terms of career prospects and salary wise?

Let me know what you think! Thanks!

Firstly, that is all going depend on where you are when you graduate. If you are graduating with an IB Analyst gig at a BB (or whatever your dream job is), you certainly wont be concerned with getting a MSc in anything. Secondly, if you want something to look forward to? Look forward to the next four years and don't even think about grad school. My advice, make an A in every class you take and have a shit ton of fun. Undergrad is the only time of your life where you can spend as much or more time having fun as you do working (studying) and still be very successful. After that all you have is the weekends (if your lucky). With that said, best of luck in your upcoming years. Don't waste them in any aspect.
