I have read Rich Dad, Poor Dad a few times because I enjoy it so much. Any books you would recommend to the 23 year old version of yourself?

Whatever Happened to Penny Candy? A fast, clear, and fun explanation of the economics you need for success in your career, business, and investments by Richard Mulberry would be a good one

One of my favorites. Gonna have my daughter (no pics) who is a senior read it the summer after she graduates.

One of those books I've been meaning to read but still haven't. Once I finish my Rapid EKG Interpretation book by Dubin, for the 2nd time I'll move on to the financial topic again and get that one. I know I can check it out at the library, but maybe it's worth buying?

The Intelligent Investor


Even though my favorite financial boom every printed, I think most of the rest of them are far more applicable to the average household.

I love investment and company analysis but even I was dozing off in several chapters.

Since you liked Rich Dad, Poor Dad, read Cash Flow Quadrant also by same author. I liked it better.

yep. excellent book. more actual details. rich dad poor dad was a good story but all fluff and no substance of actually how to make money. more like a tony robbins emotional pump you up seminar then leaves you flat at the end with no real path. The book you reference discusses paths and different cash flows.

I will teach you how to be rich by Ramit Seti. I was skeptical because of the title, but recommend.
Here's what I've learned over the years- be careful with personal finance books. Most of them lean HARD to one central theme. This is because personal finance books are a tough sell, so you have to enrich it somehow.
Dave Ramsey, Suze Orman, Robert Kiyosaki, they all have great advice but can be too absolute in their opinions.
