It's mainly the math, I think, that I'll have "trouble" (actually have to study) with - not the programming.
Have you considered finding a study partner for learning the math? Or a tutor--if you live near a university, you could probably find a math major that could use some spare cash.
I'd really like to be working on how to analyze how people connect and predict trends based upon it.
Working where? At an existing company? There's not too many options there, so you'd want to plan toward landing a relevant job (whatever that might take--and a degree alone isn't worth all that much; professional networking is). At a start-up? In that case, debt is probably the last thing you want.
