  That looks like a neat plan. Is there any specific reason you're targeting 5/10 year timeframe for job? Because that'd determine a lot of things in your path.
  
  Masters degree / diploma in management won't be too relevant in when you're starting your own enterprise. It requires a totally different skillset and mind set in the world of entrepreneurship. Just be aware that the more lucrative job you go after; quitting is going to be 10x more difficult. I've been through that phase and can tell you for sure that it's much easier to start right in college and taste the waters than getting into a job and then thinking of starting up.
  
  If you're committed to becoming an entrepreneur, you should start *NOW*. You won't have nothing to lose and have relatively more time and lesser responsibilities. Things tend to get difficult when you're adjusted to the monthly paychecks and have loans to repay to the bank.
  
  Regarding the degrees : They'll help only if you've a clear idea of what type of software business you're planning to enter into. Few more pointers would help others in posting better responses.

  Yeah I have started 3 months ago, my team has got few projects which will be our main product in few years then we are moving to system oriented products like O.S. Do you think Mtech will benefit? I cannot find anything about computer science in ME/MTECH.
  
  About the Job, I am having it as a back up plan, I just want to keep a back-up while my business grows.
