The Best Investment Books Every Beginner Should Read

By Tom Nonmacher

Hello, fellow eTHRIFTers! As we all know, knowledge is power, especially when it comes to managing our finances. One of the best ways to gain this knowledge is by reading some of the best investment books available. Today, I am going to share with you some of the top investment books that every beginner should read. These books have helped me and countless others gain a solid foundation in understanding the world of investment. They will not only help you save money but also make it grow.

First on the list is "The Intelligent Investor" by Benjamin Graham. Often referred to as the 'Bible of investing', this book teaches the principles of 'value investing.' It guides the reader to develop long-term investment strategies, which is an excellent approach to save and make money in the long run. Even Warren Buffet, one of the most successful investors in the world, credits this book for shaping his investment philosophy.

Next is "A Random Walk Down Wall Street" by Burton G. Malkiel. This book is a great beginner's guide that demystifies the complex world of stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. It promotes a 'buy and hold' strategy, suggesting that over the long term, a broad portfolio of stocks will outperform more speculative methods. The practical advice offered by Malkiel can help you save money by avoiding costly investment mistakes.

"Rich Dad Poor Dad" by Robert Kiyosaki is another must-read. This book isn't about investing in the traditional sense. Instead, it's about changing your mindset about money. It teaches the importance of financial education and creating income-generating assets. This book can help you develop a mindset that focuses on saving and growing your money.

Last but not least, "The Little Book of Common Sense Investing" by John C. Bogle is a useful guide. This book promotes the idea of investing in low-cost index funds. Bogle argues that most managed funds can't outperform the market over the long term, and he provides plenty of data to back up this claim. Following his advice can save you a lot of money in investment fees.

Remember, the journey of saving and growing money starts with education. The more you know, the better decisions you can make about your finances. The books I've shared with you today are all excellent resources that can set you on the path to financial success. Happy reading, and here's to your financial growth!
