As I know it's important in case you want to be in top management. If you are ok being just a regular specialist it's useless.
Do you think that master degree is important? I see that many companies nowadays ask for a master degree but still I know many people who had a job without it. Do you think it is essential?
Master degree is a very good leverage and great credential for those who is aiming for good position/rank in companies. Master degree give you a chance to be in higher position and higher payment and of course lot of responsibility because the company expect a lot for you.

Yes it is important if you're aiming for something higher, bigger and extravagant on your professional career. Having a masters degree is an edge to become somewhat more in demand and so does experience. 
As an employer I would choose 3-5 years of job experience from the industry over master degree anyday.
In my country job experience is more important, however some jobs require a minimum education. It is always however a bonus to have a master degree when competing with other job seekers on the labor market. That is also the reason why I am doing master thesis even though I do have a job and do not need (at the moment) a higher education. Just in case - you never know. (its free in my country, of course).
It's just like you're saying. I have an MA and I know people with more than 1 degree and most of them had trouble finding a job. Nobody cared about their education.
Nowadays 2 things count when you're applying.
1. Whether you're referred by someone.
2. Your experience
A degree is important only when only people with none of the above have applied and even then many companies would rather postpone the recrutation than take a random person based on education.
You can easily get good job without master degree.But still for higher posts and even if you want to go abroad you must have a master degree.So it depends.

It all depends on what you want to achieve and attain in life. If acquiring a master’s degree will fulfill one’s desire then it is important. Most people do it to find good jobs, however, if you ask me what matters most is whether a person really wants it or not.

Yes it is important. It's like our capital to invest with great profit in the future. Having a degree is an advantage when it comes to job application. However, being wise is also an advantage.

Almost all companies around the world see having a master's degree as an advantage, so it's not that bad at all. In addition, you can count it as a self achievement that you can treasure for your whole life. However, having it takes time, effort in studying and not to mention money. So, it better be planned before obtaining it.
Sure thing! Proper education gives you more opportunities but we know a lot of examples of extraordinary individuals that prove one can become successful without education.
However, without a master's degree you should be a broad minded person with a strive to become more knowledgeable.
Agreed. It depends a lot on what you are going to be and the field you want to pursue.

i think it depends on your future aspirations. if you want to work in startups, founder, or tech related field, hands on experience and understanding of solving customer problems is more important than masters. i guess if you are interested in building something, masters or even a degree is not necessary. but if you want to work in established industries such as Finance, manufacturing, CFO etc then it is necessary.

Definitely yes. In applying for a job, a Master Degree would be a great help in landing for a job. Although some company doesnt matter if you have Master Degree or not as long as you are capable of the job.
To be honest, you don't need it, except if you are planning to be a professor, then you'll need to have a masters degree, or you are already a teacher and you want a higher salary and position, then you need it. Bachelors degree is enough, as long as you are licensed, then you would be fine.
Come to think of it, some of those businessman don't have a degree, they only use their experience, or take a look at those construction workers, their head foreman, sometimes they think much greater than their project engineer.

It depends on your job and life goals. If you are engineer, you need master degree.
