So I have a really good relationship with sequel, but It's not the first language. I learned. It's the first one. I got paved to do So let's just one line back. I'm in college and learning cobalt at the time I thought this is what the right language to learn life is good and I'm learning how to code great get ready to graduate learn cobalt It wasn't it was pretty hard to learn guys. I'm not gonna sit here in line to say it was easy I passed but I still was confused about a lot of stuff. So After I graduated I got this job as a help desk technician not a developer a help desk technician Got the job did help this for a while saw me as far as just development EDI. I jumped into it One of the functions of a job write reports, what do you use for write reports and how you gather the data sequel? So I had to learn sequel. I went probably about eight months Just using the select statement alone guys select statement alone And I was able to get myself a full-time sequel developer job creating store procedures creating reports and really start to Start to move data Integrated with EDI systems and other different solutions the point I'm trying to make is guys Is you're not gonna have the answers coming in you're probably not gonna be positioned with a Opportunity to actually learn what you what you went school for so should you learn sequel sequel development? Yes, you need to learn sequel development and every company out there has a sequel database guys of some sorts It may it may be a no SQL. It may be my SQL But it's some kind of SQL database and you need to be aware of how to pull data And it's going to be around for a while. So to answer your question. Should you learn sequel development 2020? Yes, you should even if your friend developer back-end developer whatever counter developer at some point You're gonna be working with some data. You can have to pull that data to your application in some sort of way You're gonna be using select statements update statements of insert statements whatever statements are out there for sequel You need to be aware at least the 20% that you need to be able to pull the data in and then kind of go from there guys SQL is one of those languages in my mind It's one of the easiest ones to learn because you got the four major statements You got your store procedures and you got your functions and you can start off without necessarily getting too deep And it's pretty self-explanatory because you actually visually get to see the data and can narrow or filter the data down as you select and update it That's why I always suggest you guys to learn Database or sequel at the beginning as one of the first languages along with probably Python and PHP and then kind of go from there Guys, so yes, you want to build your confidence SQL is a good thing to learn at the beginning guys You can really start to get the concepts of programming not necessarily traditional PHP or Python program, but it gets you in the ballpark and then you start to add those layers on later When you start to look at the software stack guys Let's say for an example. You got a WordPress website, right? You got the application layer you got a database layer and you got the The back end where you actually processing the data It gives you an opportunity to kind of look at each of those layers and how they work together and be able to learn them Be your confidence down here in the database level Then you can start going to the PHP layer and then eventually get to the JavaScript layer Some people go to opposite they learn JavaScript Then they go to PHP then they go to the database But regardless of how you learn the point is you understand the stack you understand which programming language You do wet and wet purpose. You're trying to learn SQL. You can make a ton of money guys if unfortunately, it's it's one of those languages where you got ranges from $30,000 up until $200,000 or probably even more some of the bigger companies. So you got to be aware of that Some people would lobe all the mess out even me early back then I think I was made like thirty six thousand dollars But that's me. I think thirty six or thirty eight thousand dollars when I first started, but that was that was like ten years ago and What happened was I started off as a Helpdesk technician and then I really didn't get a raise when I first started But after I start to do it full-time I start to ask for a raise and I think they bumped me up to maybe 40 42 41 something like that and even then for maybe a year or so I made you know less than $1000 don't seek with developer. It's one of those development jobs to where you know depending on where you work with city You can make the very little money if you don't necessarily position yourself as Professional and get the salary you deserve. So you got to be aware of that and Once you know your value and or how to provide value in the retire or why for that particular client You can ask for the moon because at the end of the day guys every company values this data They want to have a way to access it update it and be a to integrate and move it as they need to with other Systems outside of their company and inside a company So there's a lot of options there to make money with being a sequel developer guys So I want to stay on track of my notes man I usually make notes for these videos and I've been all over the place So I want to make sure I cover all of the points. So I Sequel always gonna be around guys. You're never gonna go hungry Learning sequel a lot of programming languages. You think hey, it's gonna phase out or I'm wasting my time Or I can't find any jobs I would say PHP sequel Java C sharp is up there towards the top as far as jobs guys And there's thousands and thousands and thousands of options because everybody needs somebody to manage their data from healthcare transportation professional conserves Consulting technology company everybody have data and they need somebody who knows their data be able to report their data Send their data integrate their data keep their data safe and be able to build structures to allow them to optimize and really be able to take their company to the next level this is a great money opportunity for a lot of you guys and No, I swear by it because again you guys see the proof in the pudding And I took that knowledge of sequel and Paul ate that into PHP JavaScript C sharp and and it's all it it changed my life I can't say that so I'm always gonna be a the advocate for learning sequel first if you can so shit You learn sequel in 2020. Yes, very good language to start off with you can get your feet wet without being too intimidating You can use Excel you can do access a lot of different Productivity softwares that's consumer facing you can really learn that way you can do APIs There's a lot of options guys. So let's get on that. So let's go over my points again This is as sexy as Python or our JavaScript or some of the front-end languages No, it's going to be a little bit in the background. So don't expect A lot of people to be excited to learn sequel Just like you see everybody's trying to learn Python and JavaScript It's not that sexy, but it's in demand and you can make money doing that Crawl before you walk guys crawl before you run Build that confidence up do those smaller projects first That's gonna get you those quick wins build that confidence sequel reports SSRS reports crystal reports all that stuff get those small wins and number three You're never gonna go hungry guys It's in demand a lot of people want it and you're gonna be able to be successful as a sequel developer For the very near and long-term future as until some other solution comes out even these no sequel databases I think personally it's just gonna be two options there You're gonna always have somebody using option one and option two So just be good at option one be aware of option two me personally I haven't done a lot of no projects with a no sequel database unless they categorize XML flat files and stuff like that but guys Just understand the foundations the concepts everything else gonna come to play as you complete these projects Let the projects Determine what programming languages you should use and sequel is a good way to go So like subscribe to the content if you have any questions guys Comment below.
