BEST BOOKS ABOUT MONEY

Investment Advice from the Experts 

Here are the best books about money. These recommendations are based on my opinion. Your response to these best books on money may differ dramatically. 

Personal Finance

These best books about money and personal finance discuss many aspects of money including how to save money, how to avoid credit, how to invest money, how to get out of debt, and how to save money for retirement. These particular books don’t necessarily go into a lot of detail or into a lot of debt about any one money subject because it is impossible to cover every subtopic about money in great debt in a book of 240 pages or so.

You're Broke Because You Want to Be: How to Stop Getting By and Start Getting Ahead by Larry Winget

More than 40 percent of families today are feeling financial pressure: spending more than they earn, and worrying about retiring and being dependent on the government, family, or charity.
