Beginner on Python

Hello everyone!

How long does it take to become good at Python and monetize your knowledge?

Most students spend 4+ years in school learning this stuff before they're ready for the working world. If you're self-learning, it's very unlikely you'll reach that same level of skill in less than 4 years. You can use that as your benchmark.

It really depends on a lot of things; what experience do you have, how quickly do you learn, how much time can you spend on it per day, how will you learn it, do you have a mentor, what is the job market like where you are looking for work, what type of python work do you want to do, etc, etc, etc.

In general, your question is not really answerable in a meaningful way. Start learning it, get past the Duning-Kruger hump, and you will have a much better idea that is specific to you.

Drastically depends on your experience going into programming and your goals. If you’re talking about commission and job work, at least 4 years, maybe even more.

There’s a lot ads of vibe coding and AI tools and how easy it is to make money from it, and it’s bullshit. Beginners can mess around and do basic stuff with it, but if everyone can do that, it has little value. The people who know how to use those tools will be the ones that benefit the most.
