After all its Finance if its money we are interested..Finance is better than Accounting..Managerial Accounting is a bit spicy than working as a clerk then again you need tons of experience for it..For job security CPA is hard to beat if its America we are looking for..but then again Goldman Sachs style pay comes with Finance...MBA doesnt go too deep into it..M.S. is better option and CFA level III is respected..just my 2 cents
