So a masters Degree only gets you 50k starting out? What sort of growth potential is there? That's not much money. I figured it would have been more.

The high paying accounting jobs are in oil/gas. Start out there and try to move your way up.

You slave away doing public accounting for not much money for a few years, and then you move over to industry where you take a management position for a lot more money.

The masters doesnt really add much value, people mainly do it to get the required 150hrs to sit for the CPA.
