it’s kinda crazy how nobody’s talking about Antozent, they are selling 250 self help books for the price of one

I really like "Corporate Finance: Investment and Advisory Applications" by Patrick Boyle... very easy read....

JK it's super academic but I really like Patrick and will promote his book anyways

[tomyao]

the fact you have a book there on forensic accounting increases my respect for you a lot. It seems so many investors these days, even institutional ones, forget to actually read through the details of the statements and make rational realistic decisions based on them.

Try 'The Psychology of Money', by Morgan Housel. Another non-technical one which focuses more on your approach to investing and avoiding the noise of Wall Street.

"The Psychology of Money" by Morgan Housel is excellent, its more of a personal finance book rather than strictly investing. Its 18 short stories on everything money/finance related. Highly recommend, it is a quick and easy read.

The two books that I recommend are:
1) Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel
It’s super short but very informative and non-technical for less savvy readers. I recommended it to my sister who doesn’t know anything about investing and she absolutely loved it!

2) The Black Swan by Nassim Taleb
Very well-written book that was so effective that I actually changed my investment strategy as the result of it!

2 videos back to back?! Awesome stuff as always Richard! Much love 😎

[bigjigyeah]

One Up On Wall Street is great! To add, I would recommend Joel Greenblatt’s books The Little Book That Beats the Market (tips for passive investing on steroids) and You Can Be a Stock Market Genius (tacky title, but the content is good. Bit hard to get through if you’re a complete beginner to investing though)

your channel bring so much value, appreciate it. I am a fan of value investing !

I've wanted a video like this forever. Thank you so much for this list of helpful resources.

*Richer, Wiser, Happier.*
The author interviewed some of the best value Investors over the last century (Buffett, Munger, Templeton, Pabrai, and many more).

I think it's an important book for anyone who wants to understand the philosophy behind value investing.

2 videos in less than 24hour!? Loving them

[MecatronixAngel]

I'm reading "rule #1" by Phil Town. It has been pretty helpful to give you the basics on some of the aspects to pick a good stock without having a lot or technical knowledge about finance. It also makes pretty clear some important concepts like PE ratio, ROIC, EPS, etc.

[SherlockMahomes]

Peter Lynch is my favorite investor of all time. I listened to all his books via audio books.

[PanuKurkinen]

Thinking, fast and slow Daniel Kahneman. This was my breakthrough book in university back in the days.

[AnirudhGiri]

Woah! Two PB videos in a day, Christmas came early!

[HiroshimaXl]

I was waiting for the Benjamin Graham reference and I was not disappointed. I'd probably of gone with security analysis though. One up on wall st is also fantastic 👏

[bUnNyDiNo]

My all time favorite "Traders, Guns and Money: Knowns and Unknowns in the Dazzling World of Derivatives", great insights and crazy stories.

[ideashop]

All by philip mirowski (also theyre all 10s)

1. The knowledge we have lost in information

3. More heat than light
4. Machine dreams
5. Against Mechanism

[wmattit]

Thank you Richard, great video as usual. I would recommend “The most important thing” by Howard Marks.
