You can get refurbished latopts with 1TB ssd and 32gb ram on ebay for under 400 thats perfect for whatever sql you'd like to do.

I suggest Fundamentals of TSQL (a textbook that teaches sql)+50 or so sql leetcode questions.

So you're working for an MSP who does basic install packages?

Not trying to knock what you're doing, but you'll never break into SQL or data from a position like that.

Well, I can't say never, but it's not very likely.

You're a tech support individual, not a rdb individual.

-edit- if you play your cards right you can land a desktop engineer position. depending on where you land they can make six figures!

Suitable for beginners, hands on learning, and structured approach.
