There is no best book. The writers of the books you seek usually lie because rich people don't wish to share the wealth. Instead they promise tricks tips and many other bs scams in a book.

That's more or less what I was getting at. I just couldn't think of the way to put it. The majority of the books are titles like keys to success or steps to success. The majority are also a bad read but next time I'm at work I'll look into the collection we have and name my "favorite"

Isn't legitimate investing positive sum? Like if everyone was a better investor tomorrow, the best investors would get even richer?

I could see how they wouldn't want to share in the glory though.
