My background is pure science/mathematics. You can say nowhere near core of Finance/Accounts/Economics. Since past 2 year or so I've slowly realized that I need some economics knowledge. Unknowingly I might have picked up few grains, but I still feel dumb most of the time.

I have no intentions of looking for jobs under this domain. I want some fundamental knowledge. Something like knowing about the fluids, tire in a car if you regularly drive/own it.

That's where I need help from all of you. A certification from community college? Or join UT? Just go thru highschool books? I think I can take out few hours a week for may be few years.

Any help is appreciated.

Can you go to your local community college or university and take a single 'intro to economics' course (just to get the very basics and a general overview)

Another option is through distance learning via Athabasca University. You can do an online or correspondance course.
