Thumbs up What is everyone reading?



I figured this would be a good place to post this question.

I am looking to invest more time in my financial education. Besides Investment type books, what do you suggest to read or are currently reading.

I've read

*Most, if not all Robet Kiyosaki's books/seminars

*A wide assortment of Donald Trump's Books

*Spencer Johnsons's "who moved my cheese" and recently "Peaks and Valleys"

Currently reading

Napoleon Hill "law of success"

and

Stephen Covey "the 7 habits of highly effective people"

Anyone care to point me in a good direction of good books.?

Although I haven't read it yet, I'd imagine that John Allen Paulos' A Mathematician Plays the Stock Market is very interesting; I've enjoyed his previous books: Innumeracy: Mathematical Illiteracy and Its Consequences, Beyond Numeracy, and A Mathematician Reads the Newspaper.

You should probably diversify a little magician. You probably have that stuff down fairly well.

I don't have time to read since I'm entering all my trades one by one %@#$%@$ for taxes.

I can't believe people still waste their money reading these two authors, two of the biggest book crooks ever

Grisham's new book...

The Snowball: Warren Buffett and the Business of Life
