So, I decided to change the title of the post and shuffle somewhat a different info in the deck 
If there is a similar thread in the forum, I apologize to all of you, and I hope that you will give me the link that leads to it. Thanks!
I need help in order to make the right decision between MBA and Masters in Finance??
I do not have enough work experience required by MBA programs (only 1.5 years).
However, is it worth it to pay almost the same amount of money for MFin when I can wait for couple of years, save the money and apply for MBA?
Nevertheless, my problem is that my experience is entrepreneurial, meaning, in the family business, and MFin can kick-start a career in investment banking or consulting, which otherwise is hardly obtainable..., but very desirable
So, should I go ahead and look for the best MFin (MFE) programs in Europe, apply, get accepted, graduate and etc. OR, should I wait for an MBA?? How do you evaluate my chance in getting to my banal, but still, dream-jobs (consulting, ib)??
Thanks in advance.

Hi ssstan, kindly check this link out
mba-vs-ms-finance-compendium-19947.html Its a great piece of info.
You can also check this thread
mba-vs-msc-finance-92048.html
We have a separate section for MS Finance, I am moving this thread there.
Finally, in my opinion MBA is a degree with a wast playing field while MFin is a limited ground altogether.

Here is your issue. You don't have enough work experience right now for an MBA and it sounds like what your doing isn't really amazing enough to help you get into a top tier program. So unless you do something enticing, you will end up in a mediocre MBA program which wont help you much.
A MSc can help you break into a front office type job. Once there, no one says you have to get an MBA. Don't forget, you have a specialized masters, not a generalized one. If you get your MSc from LSE I do not think you will have an issue staying in the business and progressing upward.
