Is it worth to take risk????

I still remember how hard it was for me to decide leaving my family, my job, my country and go a broad for this master degree. Many of my friend said to me that "you have just graduated and are having a good job, why not spending some more time to work and get more experiences before leaving for a higher education?", Some others on the other hand suggested me to find a local master program and follow to be able to continue with my job. However, to my point of view, having a master degree is not an optional anymore. Nowadays, when a bachelor degree has become so popular and is considered as a must in every job requirement, a master degree will be a plus in my career. That’s why I can not put a delay in getting it. That does not mean that I can follow any program just to get a degree with no value in it. Any diploma or certificate can only be valuable when we get it from a good program of a right school. And up till now, I think I have made a right decision. With MSC program, I am able to save lots of time and living cost since it only takes ten month to get my degree. I am provided with lots and lots of practical knowledge that I need to know in the field of communication and most importantly, I am getting a degree from one of the top school in the US. If my decision to leave everything in my country and come here was a risk then I think that I was right in taking this risk.
