If you still had questions and more money than the average bear, find a financial professional.
- sjperez 6y agoThanks! I've officially added it to my reading list, along with Rich Dad Poor Dad and The Richest Man in Babylon. I wish I had done more to become financially literate earlier on--I don't think anyone ever talked to me in school about financial literacy and now I'm in catch up mode.
- eneveu 6y agoI wouldn't necessarily read "Rich Dad Poor Dad" or "The richest man in babylon". You might find better books about personal finance by: - searching recommendations on HN, e.g. with a Google search like "site:news.ycombinator.com investing book recommendations" - searching recommendations on the various subreddits like https://www.reddit.com/r/investing/ https://www.reddit.com/r/investing/ and https://www.reddit.com/r/personalfinance/ https://www.reddit.com/r/personalfinance/ (search for book recommendation threads, or read their wikis) - on the BogleHeads website : https://www.bogleheads.org/wiki/Getting_started https://www.bogleheads.org/wiki/Getting_started Good luck :)
