How to learn about the finance side of the business

[Paul Lowder]

Hi everyone!  I am new, and looking for my first deal.  Along the way, I've started to pick up some of the lingo and structure of what goes into financing a deal.  However, I'm looking to broaden my horizons, and I'm curious, to those who have a solid understanding of the financial side, how did you learn about it best?

I realize that probably the best way to gain this knowledge is with consistent experience.  However, I'm not there yet, so I'm looking more for suggestions such as youtube channels, podcasts, forums, people to speak to, etc.  Any and all advice is much appreciated!
