These MS sure will add to one's profile but will they help one get a job?Personally, If you really want to build up on tech, my suggestion is try getting an online Masters from the US.
The University of Texas Austin, offers MS in Computer Science, MS AI and MS in Data Science for only 10K USD - fully asynchronous learning. If you're really in a pinch you can get an MS CS in Georgia Tech for under 7K USD.
These are public and accredited universities, with some of them even making the top 50 in the world's best universities -- What I'm trying to say is that they're completely legit, given that tech fresh grads in California earns 100K USD average, you could probably get your money back while doing what you're doing now.
Unlike Canada, the US don't look at age, as long as you can get sponsored you have a shot.
The Fresh grad making 130K in California or NY generally are mostly hard core coders with a lot of energy and ability to work tirelessly for 15-18 hours daily for many months, I don't feel not every 40 or 50 year old can sustain such jobs. My suggestion is middle aged personnel should attain suitable skills that complements their ability and find jobs where they can sustain and put to use these skills. Where I have seen them flourish is managing either project (PMO) or Architecture or Change/UX etc...
