I never had trouble with pointers because I learned Assembly before C.

Everyone who wants to understand computers should learn ASM, preferably with something nicer than x86 GNU Assembler (%eax, come on, how about "R1"). And not that pseudo-Pascal "High-Level Assembly" nonsense that hides the details from you so you don't understand what's going on.
