You'll want a scope, it'll show you what's really happening, volts over time, you can easily find a usefull scope for 2000 Danish, I'm talking a used one.
Yes a scope is perfect! What I am thinking is that playing around with a simulator that shows me how the voltage / current behaves, could be a great learning tool🙂
Now I want to go out in the electronic world to learn, what should I avoid to start with, because it's to hard, demands to much knowledge or will cost to much?
I imagine building the following from the ground up, will be to hard: RF circuit, smps and boards with a programmable chips, any more? 🙂

Well, take the famous Nelson pass who is active here, pass lab and first watt, his philosophy is to keep amps simple, and yet his amplifiers are highly regarded worldwide, so aim for shortest possible path from input to output.
I'm out, happy electronics journey.

Just a thought. If you want to get started with the real basics, why not pick up a children's electronics set. This is how I learned the basics years ago (specifically "Funway" books and kits)
It's low cost, safe, and you can learn the basics of how voltage and current work, how different components operate etc.
There are many n-in-1 kits (eg. 150-in-1) around nowadays which all include projects and detailed instructions and explanations.

Sound maybe as a great idea... I think I know how the basic components work, like BJT, Mosfet, diods, zenor, bridge, resistors, electrolytic and other non polarized caps, what I think I need is the fundamental in what circuit is great to know, how do they work and mostly why. I do also know Ohm law but much above that is still "new mans land" 🙂
An excellent, free electronics book is here.

Why not build just an extra power supply for your needs? For solid-state like Pass clones, they are very similar, but mostly you can just swap the transformer for other amp builds and there are good inexpensive toroidal transformers. For tube there are PSU floating around that could also work. Digital design at a previous company we always used a modded PC power supplies vs bench supplies.
🙂 and it looks like it will make it a lot easier for me to know what to ask and how🙂
What about YouTube, do you know of any channels that are more geared toward beginners?
