So right now I am a college student with no debt and a stable job. I have 6 k in my savings account and want to begin making my savings work for me. I know I do not have much so what would be the best way to start growing it.

Index funds.
Long run master race.

I'm new like you OP

Started reading the intelligent investor, but it's so old, fundamental analysis is outdated for most investors, and I felt like I wasn't learning anything.

Read a random walk down wall street instead. It's modern, mostly about index funds and the stock market, but explains your other options as well. Entertaining and informative. Most importantly, I know I will never do something retarded with my money after reading it.

In IV is more advocating the emotional framework one must be in when investing, not so much the technical side.

Like ignoring mr Market

Intelligent investor is updated every few years. Did you buy the wrong edition? The copy I have is extremely useful and probably the single book who's helped me the most.

Not them but the intelligent investor is a horrible book. Okay I'm only half way done, but I don't see it improving at all. The updates you say are just a follow up from a modern author for each chapter.
For example a large section of the book deals with interest rates. Why you should be in bonds, interest rates, etc. This has no value for today's investors.
>>
>>1101373
I guess I see your point. It's still been very useful for me. What books do you recommend?
>>
Is reminiscences of a stock operator still valuable, I see it thrown around a lot?
>>
>>1101536
its a very entertaining story but most people who read it don't realize its a work of fiction and each story and charter is a metaphor for various human emotions to contribute to or inhibit success.
>>
>>1101607
So yes it is a good read for the emotional side of stock trading?
>>
>>1101373
>bonds, interest rates, etc. This has no value for today's investors.
Wow really?
This is what robinhood millennial baby's actually believe?

I like the Motley Fool Investment guide published back in 2001.
isbn 0743201736

>>1101900
Do you think multi chapter descriptions on interest rates and bond investments is a worthwhile read in a negative interest rate environment? I'm 34, not 18.
>>
>>1101910
>>1101373
Haha fuck you're an idiot.
>i'm 34
AHAHAHA FUCK
YOU'RE AN ACTUAL IDIOT
>>
>>1101910
read the motley fool investment guide, was not to terribly helpful for me. I have started on the intelligent investor and it is at least interesting. Any other book suggestions. I get the feeling that any book that say's make millions in the title should be considered a meme/shit, right?
