With all this Covid stuff going on, the first time in history the FCC has allowed testing online. Its super convenient and there isn't a better time than now to get your licence. If you can memorize a multiple choice test and have $15 in your pocket, you have access to the most powerful coms gear a civilian can own.

O no, I am pretty much an idiot for buying it. But lessons learned so others won't make the same mistake. Maybe the blue dye for the plastic is more expensive.
I will definitely get the technician license. Long time ago I learned Morse code (still pretty fast at it) but I hear now you don't need it.
