Hello Money@StackExchange Users:

I'm completely new to the world of investing and stocks. Knowing that I shouldn't invest or buy stocks until I know it well enough, I was wondering which cheap resources would be *the best to get started*. I've seen quite a lot of books and websites that teach investing (mentioned here and in other places). So, to narrow it down, **can you please mention *one* book and *one* website that teaches investing in stocks well to beginners?**

Thanks a lot.

P.S. Also, I was checking out this paper-trading [website][1], along with their [paid course][2], and would like to get a brief review from someone who has used it.
