Early Retirement Extreme by jacob lund fisker, now with this book its not a "easy peazy any schmuck" type read - it'll take some concentration, also you don't have to actually have to want early retirement

what this book does which I think is beautiful is it shows you just what your spending is costing you and introduces a systems approach to your life and finances, I think its a must read because even if you're frugal by modern standards you're actually still very much a consumerist whore - eye opening

image related, left to right on the x axis we have % of income after taxes saved (and invested) , y axis (up and down) years you have to work with that savings rate to retire, the colored curves represent a return on your savings (investments) - you could presume about 7% by just having stocks in an index fund (like vanguard) - keep in mind you'd be reinvesting 2-3% to hedge against inflation

google "firecalc" for more on this

the numbers dont lie though, think about it reight now - how much of your income do you save and invest? is it none? it is isnt it? now look at the chart - see how you'll never be able to stop wage slaving?

Protip: taking pygeum gives you laser-focus for studying and developing your business

Rich Dad Poor Dad by the genius Robert Kiyosaki is a fucking must-read.

The life changing book that has been a personal finance best seller for over a decade. This little book has changed the lives of many people and their perspective on money, who are in misery, not knowing how to make ends meet due to lack of financial education. The contents of this book, tells the story of a young man, who is the author himself, being brought up by his natural father the conventional way of getting a job, saving every penny, working hard and climbing the corporate ladder. At the same time, he also had a "second father" who taught him a different way to view things and how to start from scratch and build his business into an empire.

I am sure many of us can relate to the story on the part where we were being brought up the conventional way to become workers. As much as we don't wish it to be that way, ironically, the education system plays a very big part in educating our fathers and their fathers to be trained into workers instead of educating them and inspire them to become business owners. Ignorance of other available choices, we are trapped in a eternal cycle of working for money, saving up and spending on wasting assets that constantly drains our finances and loses value over time. Welcome to the rat race! Unless we learn and educate ourselves on personal finance, we will be unknowingly stuck with only one way of thinking, and passing that knowledge on to the next generation. Talk about vicious cycle!

This book has certainly made a huge impact on my life, why not read it and see if it will change yours as well?

Make that difference now.

(remember to buy a new copy at a physical bookstore. Sure you can buy a used book on amazon or even 'pirate it' and end up in jail, but like with anything that comes cheap or easy, it will mean nothing to you. Show your commitment to getting RICH and buy a physical copy today!)

Good point. Since there are those banners, any more nsfw doesn't even matter at all. Maybe we could get the background filled with cocks. Thanks for setting me straight friend!

Didn't like this book. I don't understand the hype. It has a few useful tid bits but not much else. If I hear the words "sound financial education" one more time I'm going to loose my shit.

Can anyone make basic-level book recommendations for:

1) Business Strategy (3 advanced disciplines of strategic thinking)
2) Corp finance/accounting
3) Entrepreneurship

Google, read reviews and use common sense. There is no standard line of books that will get you anywhere. You know what works for you - find those books.

Think and Grow Rich. This was the most important and influential book for me, because it's hard to teach someone how to invest their money.

What this book provides is the mindset that the money is out there, and all you have to do is walk up and take it.

The Investing Podcast is a rather informative podcast. I like how well everything is explained.

Stop Acting Rich: ...And Start Living Like A Real Millionaire is a must read. There's far too many people spending all of their money trying to impress strangers while being broke.
