I don’t understand the list, the first don’t have a question mark, but then they do. Does that mean that the first items are already in your possession and you imagine needing the rest?
If you have all the stuff on your list, I get a book. Practical Electronics for Inventors by Paul Scherz is a terrific resource. With that in hand you can start dreaming up projects and realizing them.
If the question mark is the stuff you expect to need, I’d say that a lab power supply is almost a must have. Nothing fancy, something that’ll do 20 or 30V and a few amps, if you’re looking for something a bit more, then same specs but with current limiting. Something like this https://www.reichelt.de/de/en/laboratory-power-supply-0-30-v-0-3-a-risu-compliant-mcp-lbn-303-p324544.html but see if there’s a second hand market for this stuff in your area.
Some basic components kits like a resistor and a capacitor kit. Maybe assorted diodes and transistors. Maybe get some voltage regulators, 7805 7809 and 7812, they can come in handy, when you’ve only got a single output on the psu and need different voltages.
That should be enough for a few months of fun. Next you’ll maybe play with timing and triggers. So a pc scope opamps and some 555s.
I think I understand now. I’ve taught intro to electronics for years, and I’d recommend you start out experimenting with resistor networks and measurement techniques. In that case you really don’t need to spend much. All you need is:
Try designing networks of resistors with pen and paper, calculate voltages across the individual resistors to get familiar with Ohm’s law and Kirchhoff’s circuit laws (BTW don’t attempt to understand Kirchoff using Wikipedia, someone wanted to flex their brain when writing that article). Build more and more advanced circuits, start out with series, then parallel, and finally mix series and parallel resistors. Try to work out the power draw of each resistor, and just once try to blow one up… On purpose, that is :)
When you’ve sorta got the hang of it, you can progress on to adding capacitance and inductance in you circuits, or digital logics, or what ever you like. But getting the hang on basic circuit theory? well, that can take some time.
