don't ask us, take a while and really think about which would make you happy. i mean you've got a great degree either way, but think about if you'd still see yourself in that field five years from now.

The top MBA programs want you to have four or five years of work experience. A degree from one of these schools will pay off much more than an MA in Economics. Any MBA program that will take you with no work experience or after two years probably isn't worth it. The advantage to an MA in economics is that you could do it right away. The unfortunate reality, though, is that all the really good graduate programs in economics don't take terminal master's students. That means you would have to settle for a mediocre MA program if you don't want a PhD. As an alternative, you could look at Masters in Financial Engineering courses -- or an MS in Mathematical Finance.
