Yes, why not?
And I believe the best teacher is your own experience. Just try to invest, then you will learn alot. To avoid paying huge "tuition fee" for gaining experience, start small.

Great that you want to self learn and that is the first step. Many cannot get over their inertia and rather watch Netflix than learn how to invest. As mentioned by many here, there are tons of good books to read, YouTube videos to watch. However, I feel it is good to attend a foundation course on Finance and you can get that for free by signing up for free finance courses in Coursera. Some of them are conducted by reputable Universities.

Not sure which stage you are at, my comment is to encourage people with 0 knowledge to start investing.

As an investing noob myself, I would say it is hardest to get started. When I say get started, it means just to move out of my comfort zone to pick a brokerage, setup an account and putting money in before choosing what to buy. It can be complex for NOOBs. You can find such information by googling and compare. I was lucky to have my hubby to guide me. He watched tons of youtube videos and self learned.

Personally I like Adam Khoo's teachings, he is generous to share, speaks clearly and very detailed.

Happy investing! :) It's never too late to start~

Some say they make more money teaching the course then doing the investments but who knows...
