We all know how the education system works, it's a defective educational system. The educational system is very slow in educating and sharing technological advancements, doesn´t teach us the problems of life or how to face them, so we are left with only one option...
We need to educate ourselves by reading, learning, getting experience and networking with wise and intelligent people.
Maybe the society doesn't want us to know how to achieve financial freedom, companies need employees, after all, not everyone can be a boss and "have money work for them". Unfortanly, the world needs people to work for money but you can choose not to and that's the power of financial literacy.
I'm sharing 10 Books that have impacted my way of thinking about the financial markets, about economics and personal finance.
- Rich Dad Poor Dad
- Market Wizards
- The Intelligent Investor
- Japanese Candlestick Charting Techniques
- Investing for Dummies
- The Art of War
- Thinking, Fast and Slow
- Flash Boys: A Wall Street Revolt
- The Internet of Money
- I Will Teach You to Be Rich
Honorable mensions are: Principles for Navigating Big Debt Crisis from Ray Dalio and I would recommend fully to look at work of the Professor Richard A. Werner, all his Articles and Essays are fascinating and very informative.
I also have read many other books on finance and economics but they are written in my native language Portugese.
