[][][][] | Reccomend a book for Investing? |
Stocks, Mutuals, etc. All that good stuff. I learned this in class, but its not enough to give me a full understanding and not enough to make me feel like I'm ready. (Plus I didn't pay much attention)
Thank you for helping ;-) |

The best I've read is "The Intelligent Investor" by Benjamin Graham. Benjamin Graham was Warren Buffet's professor when Buffett went to college, and if it works for Buffett, I'll take it. Also, check out papers by Fama & French. They're more technical in nature but information rich. |

It's very important to get this right, the difference between doing this correctly, or not, can be the difference of hundreds of thousands, or possibly millions of dollars. So it is worth your time to educate yourself. Unfortunately, the bookshelves are littered with books offering conflicting, and often incorrect, advice.
I've studied investing quite a bit, on my own but also in school (master's in finance). So, I recommend the following three books, though following only the first book would put you in a better spot than 95% of the people out there.
1) "The Automatic Millionaire" by David Bach.
This is not a great book in terms of investing theory, but it is a fantastic book for showing you the discipline required to become wealthy; both in the day to day discipline required to not throw your money away by constantly buying things you don't need, but also the importance of making regular automated investments (if your investing is not automated, you'll constantly find reasons to skip this month). If you read and follow this book, especially if you're young, you will end up wealthy.
2) "A Random Walk Down Wall Street" by Burton Malkiel. Though first written in 1973, it's as relevant today as then. It shows you why attempting to pick individual stocks is all but useless. A famous book, and largely accepted in academia as factually correct.
3) "The Intelligent Asset Allocator" by William Bernstein. Ok, this is only if you want to graduate to investing geek. The math in here can be brutal, especially if you don't have a strong math/stats background. But if you can struggle through the chapters on math, the recommendations, toward the end, are excellent and not difficult to follow. This is the best investing book I've ever read, and I've read a ton.
Good luck. |

I concur with Investing for Dummies, and would add books by Jim Cramer..straight, no-nonsense, easy to read..
Kyosaki books are trash in my opinion.. |

Try Joel Greenblatt's "The Little Book that Beats the Market". Not a complete book on investing but an interesting guide on hedge like strategies. Also check out Stocks for the Long Run. |

Try Ric Edelman "the lies about money" It is perfect! He doesn't talk over your head. Easy to understand. Colored pie charts. Cramer's books are good. Edelman is more of a teacher. But really. You can find so much on the web.....just my 2 cents. Peace Mac |

I find that a lot of the yellow IDG dummies books are very helpful when entering a new subject matter. Get "Investing for Dummies." |

Investing vs. trading 2 different animals. For investing, try The Five Rules For Successful Investing by Pat Dorsey of Morningstar. Probably the best overall book for today's beginning investor. |

It is all about -- how much spare time you can afford to spend.
Search engine with key words will be the best tutor. you can learn lot more - when L (first letter in learn) passed out then you can earn. When word L remains with you, earning will disappear and L will stand for 'LOSE' which will not leave you.
best of luck |

This book is less about stocks and funds but you have to read Robert Kiyosaki's "Rich Dad, Poor Dad". It will change your mindset about money forever. |
