Ask HN: How did you learn about stocks and the market?

I find it really hard/confusing to understand stocks and the market from the investing perspective. I'm a beginner in this domain. So, I keen to learn about it so that I can understand the technical details too. I did a search and found out that everybody is recommending "The Intelligent Investor" by Benjamin Graham. I'm kind of person who likes to watch videos, so I also found couple of courses (paid) on Udemy but those aren't good and just wastage of money. I also found that Investopedia is an excellent resource. It contains a lot of good tutorials [0], guides [1] and videos [2].

You might have already learnt what I'm trying to. What's your story? It would be really nice if you can also share the resources that proved really useful to you.
