I understand what you are saying now. That makes perfect sense.
As to your last part, none. They all have their bachelors and I would never advocate someone avoiding college completely for that very reason. I agree completely. Everyone else has their degree, you're only handicapping yourself by assuming it plays no part.
I guess as far as a masters goes, I feel like if you go the engineering/software design and developement route, its a nice personal accomplishment but it may not translate into that much real money. Security and management is different as you will either be shooting for C-Level advancement or consulting. At least that's the way I've always looked at it.
But maybe the tides are changing, I dunno.
I have no fear/concern/worry with school, I actually find school and tests very easy. I just need the empirical evidence that is worth my time to get my masters.
Masters Degrees have no bearing in IT unless youre shooting for the exec level. And more legit F500 CIOs don't have one than do. It depends on the corporate culture where you work.you may be better off getting ITIL and 6ix Sigma with the bachelor's.
