Help me pick a second degree option

Hey guys, I'm hoping to get some input on a second option for my undergraduate degree. Currently I'm in line to get a finance degree with a math minor. I'm hoping to stay out of the job market an extra year and I'm looking at picking up another option, either IS or Accounting.

Which of those two options do you think will be more beneficial for me going forward? I definitely can see how a strong background in accounting could never hurt, but I have taken basic financial and managerial accounting already.

So what do you guys think?

What do you want to do? I recommend at least intermediate accounting if you're going into the finance route. That might just be me though.
