Nudge: Improving Decisions About Health, Wealth, and Happiness

Richard H. Thaler, Cass R. Sunstein

Yale University Press, 2008

One of the best in the economics genre
Before I get to the book review, note that Thaler has done an excellent 1-hour talk about this book for Authors@Google, which is well worth your time whether or not you actually read Nudge. It's much better than the videos on Amazon. The book. Thaler & Sunstein ...

The Millionaire Next Door

Thomas J. Stanley, William D. Danko

Pocket, 1998

this book exceeded my expectations
This is the best book I have read in months. I think the authors could have made just as strong a case with half the number of pages, but I would still give this book `6-stars' if I could. Why? 1 - It's an easy and inspiring read. 2 - It's free of ...

The Ten Roads to Riches: The Ways the Wealthy Got There (And How You Can Too!)

Kenneth L. Fisher

Fisher Investments Press, 2008

Great fun. Good read.
A fun, fast (read it in one day) and eye-opening read on the real roads to real wealth. This was very different from Fisher's last book, the Only Three Questions that Count, which I also liked, but did not disappoint. This book is not about stocks per se (although ...

Be a Real Estate Millionaire: Secret Strategies To Lifetime Wealth Today

Dean Graziosi

Vanguard Press, 2007

Not just another real estate guru!
Dean Graziosi seems to be the only legitimate real estate guru out there today. All the others want to sell you their book, or initial information cheaply, then all they want to do is keep up-selling you more and more junk for hundreds or even thousands of dollars, ...

excellent inspiration

Secrets of the Millionaire Mind: Mastering the Inner Game of Wealth

T. Harv Eker

Collins Business, 2005

Great behavioral primer for financial success
This book is a common sense and user-friendly approach to identifying and changing self-sabotaging behaviors at their core. I suggest it whole heartedly and I will be having all employees read it as mandatory reading.

The Wealth of Nations (Bantam Classics)

Adam Smith

Bantam Classics, 2003

wealth of nations
pretty much the base for most modern thought on capitalism, while still being surprisingly relevant though it was written over 200 years ago.

Rich Dad, Poor Dad: What the Rich Teach Their Kids About Money--That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not!

Robert T. Kiyosaki, Sharon L. Lechter

Business Plus, 2000

Reality Check
Its true, we arent all taught the facts that are in this book. I was hooked from the very beginning.

The 4-Hour Workweek: Escape 9-5, Live Anywhere, and Join the New Rich

Timothy Ferriss

Crown, 2007

Great Book
A true 4 hour work week is probably a myth for most people, but this book will definitely help you cut down on the wasteful activity that chews up your time through out the day. I have to agree being a remote worker myself that if you can work that arrangement, you can ...

The Richest Man in Babylon

George S. Clason

Signet, 2002

Richest Woman in Bakersfield
I am not the richest woman in Bakersfield--yet! But with the help of this and other books I have been reading lately, I should get there soon. This is a short and enjoyable read, as it is written as if it were taking place in ancient Babylon, but the timeless ...

Gossip Girl, The Carlyles #2: You Just Can't Get Enough (Gossip Girl)

Poppy, 2008

frothy fun!
Let me start by saying I'm well over the target audience age for this book, but as someone who volunteers with teens, I like to know what they're reading--especially when it's a series that's become such a cultural phenomenon. That said, these books are frothy, ...

Common Wealth: Economics for a Crowded Planet

Jeffrey D. Sachs

Penguin Press HC, The, 2008

REVIEW THE BOOK COMMON WEALTH, J SACHS
IT IS A VERY INTERESTING BOOK ESPECIALLY BECAUSE IT DEALS WITH AN IMPORTANT AND VERY RECENT ISSUE: SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT. IT IS NOT EASY TO FIND BIBLIOGRAPHY ON THAT.

Zero Limits: The Secret Hawaiian System for Wealth, Health, Peace, and More

Wiley, 2007

Most amazing book!
This book has transformed my life! I only wish I had read it sooner. Most amazing.

Rich Dad's Increase Your Financial IQ: Get Smarter with Your Money (Rich Dad's)

Robert T. Kiyosaki

Business Plus, 2008

Love Rich Dad Poor Dad books
Another solid book. I read all his books and they are all motivational. You learn 50% new stuff, and 50% is just relaying the foundation. But it helps to stay submerged in his stuff to motivate yourself into taking action!
