Need advise pls! (degree, accountant, job, career)

[vokt]

I earned BA in mathematics, 5 years experiences in accountant clerk.
I just resigned my job last 3 weeks, and plan to go back school for AA.
My question is, should I go back to school for AA or MS in accounting? Thanks!!

You really ought not need to ask this question.

If you have an undergrad degree in mathematics from any kind of respectable college you ought to have no problem earning an MS in Accounting and that would likely be a far more lucrative career path than anything that would come of earning an AA.

What's an AA going to do for you?

[vokt]

AA degree more cheaper than MS in accounting.
it should be a big issue if I get more student loan and no job after gratuation.
I am not a primary financial in family, I just need to get a little updated on accounting knowledge and happy to step forward with part time job or work for small business.

Neither.

Use your math skills to further your computer science knowledge and become a Software Engineer. Once you do that you should have no trouble finding a lucrative job.

or

Take and pass all of the actuarial exams. Actuaries make serious bank.

AA degree is like a step backward. I would go for master in math or an Engineer degree like Sccttay suggested.

Then again this is your life, you know what you want already. I think you just want some people to agree with you.
