Well i am familiar with this kind of statement: "And i am gonna state the obvious here, but it is generally a bad idea to expose your sql server on the internet.. (unless you are using VPN)". Ok then, if it's a bad idea, can anyone please show me how to do it via VPN? Please correct my question if i am wrong. Thank you!

The first thing you will need is a VPN client. There are tons of them available, and few of them are even free. One such example of VPN client is LogmeIn (paid software for enterprise use). Please follow the steps mentioned in below link to setup LogmeIn VPN and share sql server database securely.
Note: Assuming you want to know how to share a sql server database securely using VPN.

It depends on what you're running. Some/most server software applications have an option for it. Windows Server for example has RRAS (Routing and Remote Access Services)
