Financial Books

Sure, why would anyone need a book when you have the blogosphere... but hey, thought I'd ask. Especially if it keeps me reading!

If you've read any particular personal finance book (from budgeting to investing to retirement savings), can you recommend me one I may be able to find at a library or buy online if it's an spectacular one? I have a few in my mind that I'll research once I'm done with the current book I'm reading (starting with Ramsey's of course), but I'd like to get your opinion and input as well.

With a recommendation, let us know what's the single best piece of advice you found in the book, or how it gave you a different perspective on things. Or if you've done a review of the book somewhere in your blog, I'd love to read it.

Thanks in advance!

  1. I've seen a few tossed around but I can't recall any or recommend any since I haven't read any. My plan is to read a few to fulfill my goal list for the year.

    Actually I have read one. "Rich Dad, Poor Dad".

    It wasn't a bad read and if you take the right thing from it, it is quite inspiring.

    1. Seems Amazon has the 3rd edition. Are they very different? I'll check the reviews and see what people think. Thanks for the recommendation.

  4. I recently came across an obscure title that turned out to be amazing. Check it out on Amazon:How to manage your money when you don't have any.
