I wrecked a lot of stuff learning how to do it. :)

Wrecking stuff is part of the learning process.

If its a 101, get good old lead based solder and use only that. ie) match the 
solder type to the device you are working

You need a nice soldering iron with a good tip. Temperature controlled is nice. 
I go a little hotter for de-soldering.
Weller is a great brand.

Practice on something less important or even build a few kits.

Lots of excellent experience can come from building kits.
