Round Conference Tables

Who taught you how to invest in the stock market?

I learned the majority of what I know from a friend I met while serving tables at a restaurant. Now the only job I have is maintaining my investments. How did you learn? Who taught you? What did you do to take your education to a higher level? How much did you start with? Just curious about everyone else on here.
