Advice on starting?


I am 23 and more or less financilally illiterate. I grew up in a paycheck to paycheck home and never really learned I should be thinking about my money besides paying bills and saving. I was quite literally taught nothing about finances in highschool or college. Now I hear the only way anyone will be able to retire someday in modern times are thru things outside my knowledge. I’m looking to spend the upcoming summer truly educating myself on what my options are, as I am not a huge money maker but at least want to be smart with the money I do bring in. I was curious if anyone had some good resources to share on learning the bare-bone basics of stocks and trading? Youtube videos, podcasts, (i prefer books cause theyre easier to go back and reference) would be much appreciated. I’ve been lurking this subreddit for a bit to learn anything but truthfully, reading a comment thread here is like reading a different language. Any help is appreciated! Thank you
