Keep working or study abroad

I’m considering whether I should go to study abroad. My profile is as follow: 1. MSc in Finance from Lancaster Uni in the UK; 2. Work as a quant analyst at a bank in China; 3. Already 31 years old Right now, I plan to go to study abroad like LBS to improve my background. Then I want to stay at the UK to live, because life pressure in China is much higher than the UK.

But I’m not sure whether my plan is conductable, for example, could I get a decent job in financial area after graduating from school.

It will be very appreciated if you could give some idea. Thks.
