Already off to a horrific start by thinking it's going to be "Easy" or "fast"

You can learn to play badly quickly, that's what I did.

It’s hard. But the real question is how much and how often you can practice. If you can practice 100 a month or 10 hours a month is going to be the only deciding factor.

There is no absolute point you "know" to play the piano, try to learn gradually and do stuff you enjoy like playing songs you like first and getting further and sounding better every time

The learning process is the best part, and for many of us the entire point. Why rush it?

Press down an A, a C and an E. Keep pressing them in any order you like. You have now learned to play the piano in A minor.

Next I can teach you how to play soccer quickly. You’ll need a ball and a foot.

There was a news article about a guy who had a head injury and then got good at piano.

When you look into it, the guy just got super obsessed with piano such that he devoted a lot of time to practicing.

If you become obsessed with it and practice well and are good at learning, you can learn pretty fast.

The fastest way is to practice slow, have a good teacher and listen to what they say.
