If you are already in a business savvy position like M&A, then I'm guessing you understand accounting and finance. If you want to be an entrepreneur, I don't see an MBA helping much - it's just a credential to help you get a job working for others.

A CS degree probably isn't necessary either. You can take some free or cheap courses online and teach yourself the tech you want to use.

You're spot on - very comfortable with accounting and finance. I've created a lot of value so far through financial modeling for organizations.

Great feedback on CS degree.
