Well, from personal experience, it would seem to me that if you’re curious enough about electronics to consider making something using a breadboard, you would be curious enough to learn from electronics near at hand.
Y’know, take older non-functioning stuff apart (say, a toaster) to see how it works or doesn’t. At some point, you might realize that you need a multimeter (as you hazily recall using one in high school physics).
Edited to add: “Multimeters considered helpful”? Ahem: Multimeters are considered essential!
Also, really, really, really good analogue meters are such beautiful pieces of equipment. I’ve handled that Simpson meter in the video - quality manufacturing. Mind you, give me a modern digital ultra-high impedance meter over them, any day.
