Best Way To Learn C++?

Alright so this is my first thread and I was wondering what was the best way to learn C++? I did some visual basic back in high school and thought it was interesting but never really gave it a lot of attention. I am really interested in programming now and I want to create something for monetary gain (I know the money comes into play at a later time) but what are the best ways to pickup c++? I want to gain as much knowledge as I can and Id prefer not using youtube since a lot of videos become outdated and or have not what I am looking for.
I am kind of on a budget and don't have money to be spending on books but I do have good internet access so I can download pdf's and browse several websites. I got the basics down from another forum but I am not at that point where I can code something without having to look up some example code.
That is pretty much where I want to get at and I am using visual studio 2010 if you were wondering. Anyone know of some c++ practice sites that have comments included showing what the code does? That would be awesome for a start

what do you mean by that? I am looking for the best ways of learning c++ like memorizing the code to a point where I can program something without having to look for a solution online its pretty self explanatory
well isn't it obvious I was trying to say "Learn" and just forgot the r? Did you even read the thread to get the idea that I want to learn more of c++?????

yeah, I think its crazy some programming books are like $20+ If there is some stuff online I don't mind taking the time into reading whatever is out there. I have the basics down but the basics aren't enough for me
Why don't you try this :

The best way is to pay for classroom instruction though.
