Whether or not you have a good job or any job at all! Of course a doctorate is better. It takes much longer to get and the work is much more difficult. A doctorate is the standard professional degree in psychology and will open every door for you. You can easily earn 150-200K or more. Getting just a masters is not a good idea. You will always have much worse jobs than people with doctorates and will not feel good about your situation as you will be a "second class citizen" in your profession.

After you finish a four year program with a degree in Psychology, you will then go on and take another 36 credits and then you will earn a Master's degree in Psychology. If you then are not sick of studying this topic and want a particular job that would require a Doctoral degree you could pursue a Doctorate which requires more study and a research project and what is called a Doctoral Thesis. You then have to defend your research to a group of experts to get the degree, My recommendation to you is to spend all the time that you can reading about everything that you can so that you can pick up these commonly known things. Getting a good basic education is the most important thing at this point in your life.

Almost all areas of specialization in psychology requires a doctorate degree. For this reason, you can get more high-paying jobs when you have PhD compared to a master's degree.
