Is it worth learning anything? Of course.
Python is useful for automation, scripts, web development, applications, DB's, Machine Learning, and learning concepts such as OOP and algorithms.
Minecraft wise

Well, Minecraft wise, you can't do much with python - spigot API is mainly used with Java.
However, that's not to say it's not worth learning - it's good to get the basic logic thought process down, which will make learning more complex programming concepts much easier.
Ofc if you want to use spigot api with minecraft, java is better, but that's not what you should be considering programming languages for. If you want to do minecraft dev, do java. If you want to do data structures, analysis, or systems programming do C, C++, Python, Rust, etc.

Honestly thank you for what you have told me also how long would you think it would take to learn Java? I know it probably takes years

If all you want to do is minecraft dev, java should be very quick. However, that is only for more basic programs. Once you get to more complicated things that require algorithms, databases, etc., then it will take much longer.
no sql bad
learn postgres if you want to do db
Most definitely!
In regards to a career, Python, C++, C#, etc. would be good languages to learn because of the capabilities they have. For example, you could work in Game Development, Software Development, etc. If you're just wanting to do Minecraft development, then still learn the basics of Python so it's easier to pick up Java and more complex languages.

no, use mongo
Mongo is bad in so many different ways but that is a completely different conversation
100%. Learn the full stack of Python - Django, Flask etc and you will be set for a long, long time. There isn't any limit to what you can make apart from things like MC plugins of course. Just another note id keep in mind : Don't go in with the mindset thinking that "Python" is easy. As with all languages they all have their "easy" and "hard" parts. Just because it is easier and friendlier to learn doesn't necessarily make it easier especially if you're developing more sophisticated programs/apps etc as there are many things which can be very difficult to understand initially. Don't feel disheartened if you find parts of it to be very challenging.
Personally I love Python for web development ( with Flask + Django ) for many reasons as it allows you to develop things much quicker without overcomplicating everything!
Also in terms of 5-10 years from now, Python is where everything is at as you it allows for rapid development of a lot of things and of course ML ! Hope this helps

Yes, python is a good programming language.
