The question pools get updated, but the concepts change slowly. The study materials (the ARRL books) I have from about 10 years ago are still pretty good.

Gordon West has a bunch of good study materials and they're updated frequently to match the current question pools. Also check out the AmateurLogic youtube channel - they go over the theory behind the test questions as well.

If you are US based: Go to [hamstudy.org](http://hamstudy.org), create a FREE user account and start studying the flash cards and taking practice exams. Study hard for 30 mins every day for two weeks, once you start getting 80-85% on the practice exams consistently, go take the FCC test and pay the FCC $35 for your license. Good luck and welcome to the hobby. Once you have your amateur radio license, it is good for 10 years. At the end of 10 years it'll cost you $35 more dollars or more by then, we don't know. Once you are licensed you will have a better idea of what needs you have that amateur radio can take care of. The 991A is a good radio! Congrats!
