4 Books To Read On Personal Finances
This time of year I start thinking about what books I want to read in the coming year. In 2019, I read a few books for pleasure and few books related to personal finance. Over the next few weeks, I wanted to share a few books that I have enjoyed in personal finance, investing, and a third category that I’ll just call thought-provoking. All of the books recommended I have read at some point so if you read one and want to discuss, give me a call!
Personal Finance Books
- The Millionaire Next Door (Thomas Stanley) – Discusses the research done on the behavior of millionaires to see what they do differently from others in terms of spending, saving, and investing.
- The Total Money Makeover (Dave Ramsey) – I’ll admit Dave Ramsey’s tone can be a bit aggressive but it’s what some of us need to get on track. This book focuses primarily on debt repayment while laying the groundwork for building a stable financial life. Great for young families getting started.
- The One Page Financial Plan (Carl Richards) – Focuses on simplifying your finances so you can be laser focused on your goals.
- Financial Recovery (Karen McCall) – A look into how our personal money beliefs came to be and how to develop healthy ones that will lead to more financial peace.
