It’s no secret that I’m a huge fan of Warren Buffett, so any of my picks would surely include some books about Buffett on investing.
I like to read and learn how to be a better investor and manage my money better. It’s also equally important to put what you learn into practice. All the reading and head knowledge in the world will not make up for actual experience.
Scouring the net, I’ve found some other list of people’s favorites.
GetRichSlowly has a list that includes The Millionaire Next Door, The Total Money Makeover: A Proven Plan for Financial Fitness, and The Richest Man in Babylon. Out of those 3, I have only read the first one. By the way, you can get the last one for $2.66 at Amazon.
FollowSteph has a top ten all time list. Among them is a book that is in my collection as well: The Intelligent Investor: The Definitive Book on Value Investing, the classic by Ben Graham. There is another Ben Graham book in the list that I haven’t had a chance to read yet - Security Analysis: The Classic 1940 Edition.
Stockerblog has a massive top 100 list.
