Of course there are personal portfolio managers who could help manage your finances. Also there are basics of saving, investing and expense planning info here and there. But I am looking at some solid one stop shop books or web tutorials (MITcourseware, Udemy, Coursera, etc.) which will help make the "foundational understanding" of personal finance, goal setting and investment portfolio management solid. There are plethora of other reference sites like Yahoo Finance, Motley Fool, Schwab, etc. to use, but would like the foundations strong to be able to use such sites effectively. Any recommendations? #personalfinance #investments
Haven't come across good one stop shops but even if there was one I wouldn't rely on it solely. Financial management advice varies a lot based on investment philosophies. You'll get a range of advice suggesting things like 3 fund portfolios (US, international, and bonds), maxing out retirement accounts first, paying off debts first, not touching bitcoin with a 10 foot pole, options should only be done with <x% of your portfolio, etc. All of those things depend on your appetite for risk vs reward, philosophy of money, and personal situation and are not one sized fits all pieces of advice. I think you're better off learning from a variety of sources and deciding on what type of investor you want to be. There are tons of portfolio management and financial analysis courses on Coursera among other sites, as well as subreddits dedicated to certain aspects of investing: r/personalfinance, r/fatfire, r/algotrading, r/securityanalysis, r/wsb (for what not to do), etc. Make a list of specific questions you have about investing and just Google / Youtube what you need to know, and check out resources like the ones I mentioned + "gospel" style investment books like The Little Book of Common Sense Investing. Parting advice: invest as much and as often as you can but only the money you can afford to lose
Sane advice. Thanks
The above post is a great one and has exactly the types of investing decisions that you need to make. It will be tough to find a guide that covers every base and works for everybody. If you want a starting point that talks about the same items covered above (ie how to prioritize your investments, what types of funds to invest in, what % to put in each fund, etc) you can use https://engineerseekingfire.com/8-critical-decisions-for-a-successful-investing-strategy/ as a starting point
FIRE is never the goal, but that's a good one.

You’ll need to find an accountant/personal financial advisor. Each person’s goals and situations are different so it’ll be difficult to find a one stop shop book or web tutorial, which is generally made to be genetically applicable. I’ve used Reddit/PersonalFinance a lot to learn about new topics
