Should I learn coding or just hire coder? I already have $1million.

I've already have a business(not tech), I've got $1m.

Now I want to start tech business like develop iPhone App,
make SNS like Facebook or twitter.

so now I'm studying coding like javascript and PHP,
but sometimes I feel like wasting of time.
Because I already have money to hire coder, so I should focus to manage them?
As an entrepreneur, I have to hire coder instead of studying code?
someone says you have to be manager not coder.your work is to manage them.

but also I think I have to master coding.
because many successful entrepreneur in tech company,
almost all of them are coder, Facebook,Twitter,Google,etc.

so… which is better choice?

So, you're an entrepreneur and a cash millionaire. If that is the case you wouldn't be asking this question because either a) the answer would be patently obvious or b) you'd go somewhere else to get proper advice, possibly including paying for that advice since that would be a no-brainer in the circumstances.

Hire coder.

Coding takes a lot of work and effort to actually be good at it to the point where you are producing a quality product. Hiring somebody with these skills is probably more beneficial to you in your situation so that you can focus on what you want and they can produce the vision for you. If you do it yourself, you are likely to end up with a hack-job. Having someone do it for you allows you to learn from what they have done. There are many successful entrepreneurs who do not have coding backgrounds, some of which run tech companies even.

Only you know that answer. If you want to spend money then hire someone, otherwise if you want to learn then do it yourself.

Do it on your own if you want it original and made right.
Plus, why start a business like this if you don't even know how this stuff works, yourself?
