I know this might sound stupid, but have you read any not-crap, non-charlatan books that teach you how to make money, conceptually at least?
I count Rich Dad Poor Dad as one. And for those who argue that Rich Dad was not real, I think his name was Robert Kimi.

You'd make more money writing your own book than buying someone else's.
I recommend "A Random Walk Down Wall Street" by Burton Malkiel.
Came in to say this. I'm not a pure efficient market hypothesis person, but I do subscribe to the belief that it's very, very, very difficult to beat the markets consistently year-in-year-out. Unless you want to work in investing/AM and can't imagine doing anything else, I just don't think it's worth investing a ton of one's time to trying to beat the markets, when you could instead be upskilling and earning more income. I love investing as a hobby and still read/follow the markets daily, but I only allow around 10-15% of my NW to be put into my trading account because I know I'm going to lose in the long-run versus just buying $VOO or $VT even.
Instead of worrying so much about investing, I've started to invest a lot of that time teaching myself some coding and transitioned into data, which has boosted my salary by over 50% and has reduced my hours compared to what I was working as a CPA. Beyond having more money to invest/take risks now, the fact that I also have more leisure time has been a big boost to my life after being way underpaid and extremely overworked for years. It's almost been worth more than just earning paper gains on high-risk stocks because my QOL and health are better than they've been in a long time.
