Need Help with Degree Completion Strategy

Hard to say. I've made it to the sr. software engineer, CTO and co-founder levels without the degree. And now that I've developed that track record and have about 10 years of hands on engineering experience, I'm not so sure it would open all that many doors. It would be great to have the CS just to solidify my technical experience, but I wonder if I'd go further by complimenting my experience with a business degree.

I'm less interested in having a career (aka job) and more interested in having my own business, which seems to be the path I'm headed down in my real estate development ventures.

By the way, thanks so much for fleshing this out with me. It's so refreshing to hear like-minded people making rational arguments for their opinions.
