I was just on Facebook's Splunk group where I like to lurk. And a common question that pops up is "how do I teach myself". It's a fair question Splunk's classes are not cheap.
While I don't think you can become an expert without solid partnering with Splunk education and consulting, I do think you can get pretty far.
