I have made my business grow from nothing to $1.4mil gross sales business. I am a street smart rather than text book guru but I would like to get MBA for future security.

Street smarts won't help when in your first semester you are asked the relevance of Chi squared in a statistical SPSS marketing research package and they don't tell you anything more because it is assumed you learned about Chi squared in your year of undergrad business statistics....and don't even get me going on the accounting questions that you will be assumed to be familiar with. Same with your core finance and computer science courses.
I recommend dropping by a University with a College of Business and picking up a school bulletin...look up the course requirements for a Bachelors of Business and see all the courses required (128 semester hours is the usual)...that will give you a new insight into what a Masters program will assume you know and are familiar with.

Any reputable school would require you to have a bachelor's degree before getting into a master's degree program.
But on the other hand, why do you feel you need it? Sounds like you've done a great job building a business, and obviously have the right mindset to be successful. If there are particular areas you feel your background is weak in, for example if you feel you need more accounting knowledge, then go take undergrad courses in that area. A degree is getting to be a pretty baseline requirement for getting a professional job in most fields, but you've apparently already gotten there!
Good luck in the future.

I believe you have to have an undergrad degree to get any graduate degree. Once you have a graduate degree in some cases you can skip a Master's and go to a PhD... but you're talking online, nothing would suprise me.

I believe you have to undergraduate first since MBA is a Masters degree.

i am unaware of any program that allows you to get a graduate degree without first having a bachelors degree. there are programs however that allow you to get both degrees concurently. you may want to look for those.
