Whether to wait now or learn later is your own choice.
I learned programming in my teens and I still notice the positive effects it had on my thinking. It taught me to think more rationally and logically work through problems, and helped me understand math better. So, I would highly recommend programming if just to learn how to think like a programmer which I've found to be fairly useful when tackling real world problems such as in business.
I know you said you know how to write XHTML, CSS and a little Javascript. Javascript is the closest thing to a "real" programming language on that list. I would suggest learning VB (it's not that good for making actual programs, but it's great to begin with) C#, Java, PHP or Perl to begin with. The beauty of programming languages is that once you understand most of the basic concepts, you can learn other languages fairly quickly because most of the basics are similar but just use different syntax.
