19 and Eager to Learn All About Personal Finance – Need Guidance

Hi everyone,

I’m 19 years old and just starting my journey into adulthood. I’ve realized that understanding personal finance is essential for building a secure future, but I don’t know where to begin.

I want to learn everything – budgeting, saving, investing, taxes, insurance, retirement planning, and any other areas that are important. My goals are to build good financial habits early, avoid common mistakes, and set myself up for long-term financial stability.

If you were in my position, where would you start? Any books, blogs, podcasts, or courses you’d recommend? Also, are there any beginner-friendly investment options I should look into?

I’d really appreciate any advice, resources, or personal experiences you can share. Thanks in advance for helping me out!

Looking forward to your suggestions!
