You only have one degree, whilst you have plenty of years. Spend a bit of the next 2 or so years making sure your degree is the best you can get. It'll be handy when your startup fails (everyone fails, it's not a reflection on you) and you need a job!
Honestly, I went through the same thing with my parents ("When are you going to get a real job?") during my gap year freelancing. As people have said before, you can show them your success... but your degree is definitely part of that, and you'll rather you had spent $100k on a 4.0 than a "just scraped by"
