I often get people sending emails asking me what good books to recommend. Most of them were similar to yesterday's Cody: "Which book should I read first about how to invest?" "The question is easy to answer. In the January, Bobby's problems were more straightforward:
I want to know if you have a list of books on personal finance that you've collected. I often go to the library and I am fascinated by my understanding of personal finance. It's also one of my personal goals for 2007 years (a monthly educational book).
It's a great goal and it's also a great question. I will eventually dedicate a portion of my website to personal finance books. Today, I'm going to make a list of books that I often check out (not all of my own books – I have a lot of books that aren't worth buying). Those books that I think are necessary are marked with an asterisk.
Please note: These recommendations are only based on the help of each book. Everyone's situation may be different.
Personal Finance Basics
The books cover all aspects of money from a broad perspective, as well as some advice on saving, investing and getting out of debt. These books will not be described in detail on a topic, but it will give you a motivation to get started, which is the most important thing.
Next door to the millionaire Stanley and Danko
The authors surveyed and interviewed a lot of millionaires, trying to find a universal connection between them. They found that millionaires live below their income. They do the budget. Also let the adult children make their own budget. This book introduces several key concepts, including the accumulation of wealth. Somewhat dull, at least in the voice version. This is a handful of books that cover both ends of the wealth equation-open source and throttle.
You want money or life, Dominguez and Robin?
A classic, but also one of the basic textbooks for simplifying the life movement. The author teases the concept of "time is Money" in a literary tone. They encourage readers to prioritize their priorities, cut spending, and find income outside their jobs for the purpose of pursuing economic independence. With some sense of Generation Y (the original sentence a little New age-y in spots). It's a good book.
Completely subversion money author Dave Ramsey
Ramsey is a fanatic of credit opposition (originally Anti-credit). About 25 years old, personal assets reached $4 million, then went bankrupt. He now runs his own financial empire. This book describes in detail the "debt snowball" model. His support for this model has led him to a lot of criticism, but his approach is effective. If you are struggling with debt, there is no better place to start than this book. Ramsey's advice permeates the Christian faith, but you will benefit a lot from this book even if you do not convert to religion.
The rich barber author David Chilton
This book offers many excellent and universal personal financial advice in the form of fiction. A few friends meet at the Barber's every month, and the book's namesake will share with you the wisdom of saving, investing, buying, and so on, and these are good advice, and there are often living examples behind it. The tone of the writing book may be pandering to those who have a stomach for personal finance.
Babylon's richest man George Clason
Clason The wisdom of personal finance into fables. These gold-like wisdom was originally in a booklet distributed in banks or insurance companies in the 1820s. And the most widely circulated has been compiled publication. This book is an old-timer in personal finance books (Benjamin Franklin is the veteran), and you can find many of the sayings that are still circulating-"pay your own bills first", "Invest for the Future", "be aware of the magic of compound interest."
Frugal Chapter
If you want to get rich, saving is an essential skill. (If you don't believe it, see "Millionaire Next Door") Here are four books that can help you learn to save every penny with a variety of ways you might never have thought of.
The happy life of a car-free family Chris balish
Balish begins by explaining to the reader why there is no better car-from financial, ecological and social perspectives. The remainder of the book describes how to survive without a car. He offers a wide variety of ideas, including public transportation, trekking, and bicycles. This book is narrow-minded, but if you're one of the target audiences, it's worth reading.
Stingy mother author Jonni McCoy
Don't judge the book from the cover. Sometimes the most humble book can provide the best advice, which actively helps you to achieve the need for getting rich. The book is ostensibly a financial guide for housewives, and in fact it's all about saving tips for any family that has a need (especially a family with children).
The simple life of Joy Jeff Davidson
The book is full of tricks. Davidson is widely involved in this book and proposes several ways to save money on each topic. If this book is written as a blog, it will be unique-valuable links one after the other. The book is a treasure trove of people who want to throw away all the burden of life.
The way to get rich in a low-paid family James steamer, author
If you are a newly independent young man, this book is a good choice. The book offers hundreds of ideas to help you avoid debt, increase income, save on insurance and living expenses, and simplify your life. Some are outdated, even some extreme, but there are plenty of good suggestions (I borrowed one from the public library for 6 months.) The book is old--a reliable mark of a good book.
Another popular frugal book is the full miser journal, author Amy Dacyczyn. I have never read this book, but this book is in the top of my pre-borrowing list.
Investment Chapter
This part of the book is specifically for investment. The four books that I have kept are relatively easy to master. They are not so theoretical, but they are a good primer on the subject.
Automatically become a millionaire David Bach
In addition to the iron effect (the lattéfactor, which means unnecessary overhead), David Bach has put forward many theories. The whole system he recommended is excellent. If you have been planning to open a personal retirement account but have been slow to do so, take a look at this book. He'll tell you how to open one with no effort.
The only investment guide you've ever read Andrew Tobias
Andrew Tobias is an interesting writer. While describing common property, bonds, and Treasuries, his witty conversational style will always appeal to you. The book has a chapter on how to control the windfall (such as Lotto Lottery, inheritance). This book is an excellent introduction to investment.
Goblin Investment Guide Larimore, Lindauer, LeBoeuf
Do you want a professional investment advice? It's hard not to pour the book. Vanugard's founder John Bogle's followers prefer slow and steady investment, such as the Index mutual fund. They screened decades of experience to teach us a variety of business, inflation and asset allocation knowledge. The book is not as dull as it seems. Highly recommended.
Of course, you can ... Achieving financial Independence James Stowers
Unlike the quirky headline, this is a reliable investment book written by one of the richest people in the United States. The book does contain some of the most basic personal finance information, but it provides some tips on how to invest. I haven't read it all, but I often refer to this book when I'm ready to log in to the portal. This book is similar to Tobias's general observations and the transition books between the technical books of Graham or Malkiel.
The other two classic books include Benjamin Graham's "being a smart investor" and Burton Malkiel's "Wall Street walk." I have a collection of these two books, but I have never read them. Because they are too technical.
Success Story
Wealth is heavier than money. These books will help you to complete your personality, develop your skills and indirectly help you to achieve your own capital.
Success 50 Classic Tom Butler-bowdon
Butler-bowdon has selected 50 of these books from the Book of successful studies. He made each copy into a thumbnail, compressing the content within a few pages, preserving the key points. He also provided a profile of each author, providing the background of each book to explain the meaning of the book. This is a good way to find other good books to read.
The secret of the Great Rich's mind T. Harv Eker
There are some personal financial advice in this book (all very exciting), but more space is about changing your perception of money and self. I think the word "secret" is very appealing. This book is especially appropriate for those who have lofty ideals or who try to overcome negative thinking.
How to Win friends and influence others Dale Carnegie
One of the classics of successful learning. Carnegie used one story after another to illustrate the best way to get the most out of relationships. and the essence of it is "to ask others to look at the problem from your point of view, first put yourself in their shoes." Of course, the focus is on the details, and Carnegie's straightforward prose is a good indication of direction. You can buy this book cheaply in a secondhand bookstore.
Just do David Allen, though.
There is no need to say much about this book-this is a classic geek (geek). Allen describes his formal system, which is designed to improve efficiency. Although I find it difficult to persist in the long-term precision, some of these principles are always used. If you have a problem with procrastination or lack of organization, this book is definitely for you.
Don't eat alone, Keith Ferrazzi.
I've been trying to relive this book for weeks, and I love to hate mixed for it. Part of the book is wonderful-you can learn how to socialize with others, how to establish and maintain contact, and how to build a social network. And the other part of the book is disgusting-the social networks that have been built to build social networks are really annoying. Constantly mentioning the names of VIPs to raise their own methods will soon become obsolete. If you have a wide interpersonal relationship, this book is worth reading.
One of the missing books in my library is "What color is your parachute?" 》。 This is a classic book on career transitions. I've been locked in get Rich slowly and family box factory, but if I'm looking for a job, I will not hesitate to choose this book.
Children and money
Many parents are not ready to teach money to the children. You don't have to be such a parent. The following books offer a lot of advice to help you make your child understand the workings of money.
What color is your piggy bank? Adelia Cellini Linecker
This thin booklet is 10~14岁 just beginning to show the preference of children with investment interest. Linecker in the book involved in the work, shop, and financial management of the relevant knowledge. I would like to be able to provide a full review of the book in the next few weeks.
You decide Cameron Johnson.
This is a new book for young entrepreneurs. In my pre-reading library. I was booked for the book because consumerism commentary's Flexo gave the book a very high rating, saying: "This book should be a must-read for young people who are interested in becoming entrepreneurs." ”
Simple Parenting Marie Sherlock
Sherlock provides a non-consumerism technique for raising children. She encouraged the need for childcare through strong family ties rather than cold consumption. There is a lot of good advice in the book.
