need advice: should i consider a master's degree?

I'm a 24yo M, into frontend engineering making over 18LPA. I'm also working part time for a startup.

I'm considering masters in the UK, US or Canada on the same order of priority.

my main reasons to even consider masters are the following

  • meet people from different backgrounds
  • get a better paying job with a work visa in a foreign country
  • FOMO as a lot of people i know from college are now abroad studying/working

cons i see in this approach

  • heavy on the finances
  • economy isn't doing very well worldwide
  • job market is pretty bad rn
  • i have everything here in India (family, friends, a well paying job)

my ideal case would be to get a visa sponsored job opportunity, but considering the economy and job market it seems impossible.

would love to know opinions of some experienced folks or anyone who'd have some guidance for me. thanks.
