dilemma: java or python

[Gaijin]

Well I was told I need like 2-3 years to finish java..

MORE..... Like with every language, they get upgraded and function changed or removed, you will never stop learning a language, but after mastering the basics it's a easy way to walk from that point.
There are also functions that you'll never use, so you don't really need that much time to finish learning Java.
I would say after 5-6 months working with Java you can start playing with Python....
But don't forget that you still didn't learned Java completly, so don't just switch to Python....
