Go to Bogleheads https://www.bogleheads.org/wiki/Getting_started. There is an active forum https://www.bogleheads.org/forum/index.php . Bogleheads is named after Jack Bogle, the late founder of the Vanguard family of funds and a champion of stock index funds. Bogleheads is not the place to learn about crypto or FX trading. They generally advise against non-traditional investments.

I would start with bogleheads. I also always recommend people start with bogleheads and learning about 3 fund investing.

However I feel they are slightly too conservative especially if you are young. If you are following their bond advise right now you are getting crushed for no good reason, and Warren Buffet would be the first to point this out.

But still, having the majority of money in a total market fund is sort of a “no brainer”, and reading this will explain why.

Thank you!

After learning for years, I settled on Jack Bogle's reversion to the mean, and put 75% of the money in VOO, and 25% I do stock picking.

I check this stuff once a month (I'm not in the US, can't have admiral shares), and than forget about it.
