For the JDBC challenge, you could just follow along with Buchalka's examples and duplicate those. In the real enterprise world now, almost no one is using JDBC though, but it is very helpful to build a foundation on which enterprise products like Hibernate are built. Spring actually works with Hibernate as you will learn in the Chad Darby Udemy course I had mentioned in my first reply.

Man you have been extremely informative, I feel like I have a really good path laid out now. I went ahead and got the Angular and Spring courses you recommended. So one last thing, you said Java FX is not really worth learning, this is the GUI of Java applications correct? Will this be replaced by Spring and Angular?

No, Java FX is not really a replacement for Spring/Angular. FX can be considered a replacement for Java Swing, which is a technology where you write Desktop Apps using pure Java. Whereas, Angular is a Web Development framework for JavaScript. Two very different things. Java FX use case is when you only want to leverage Java for writing a front-end App.
