It’s no secret that reading more books than the average person is a habit shared by the world’s most successful people. Take Bill Gates for example, who reads up to 50 books a year!
Warren Buffett is also an avid reader, reading up to 5-6 hours per day. Buffett aligns the benefits of accumulating knowledge with the compound interest effect, it builds up over time. With that in mind, I thought I’d better start building a comprehensive reading list of the best-investing books recommended by yours truly, and my guests on The Inside Word.
The books below are predominantly on the topics of business, investing, psychology or a combination. Happy reading!
