If you plan on becoming an Oracle DBA in 6 months, and you expect to be free, you will find you will have a hard time getting anywhere.
Oracle is a complex system, it isn't something that you can just learn reading on the net. Specially if you don't have real world experience and databases you can work on and experiment.
To be honest, if your attitude is to learn this using free websites and tutorials online, I doubt you will find yourself in a dba position. That approach is ok for becoming familar with oracle, especially as a programmer, but to become a dba, it is fairly different, specially with all that is involved in it. Not to mention wanting to do this in 6 months. Paying $12,000 and going to the 5 Oracle courses is about a 6 month process.
