Compared to David Senra, Charlie Munger, Elon Musk, or Jeff Bezos, I haven't read so much yet. So to answer your question, for example, you can see David's recommendations at https://world.hey.com/davidsenra https://world.hey.com/davidsenra. Mine would be: - Hard Drive: Bill Gates and the Making of the Microsoft Empire. It gives a nice insight into the fact that Bill is ruthless and obsessed with winning. If you want to start a company, then this is what you're up against unless you find your niche. - Chip Wars. Gives a nice overview of the history of chips and Morris Chang. Morris Chang has said in a talk that he couldn't have written the book better himself, as reported by Asianometry. - Richer, Wiser, Happier by William Green. Buffett always said that being a businessman made him a better investor and being an investor made him a better businessman. If you want to found a company, then it's probably good to understand the basics of investing and how good investors think. Richer, Wiser, Happier, as bad as the title sounds, gives a good overview of value investors. In the end, value investing is the name of the game. A large part of it boils down to looking through thousands of opportunities and only striking if you have a massive advantage. This idea works for creating things too. If you don't want that last book, then go for Peter Thiel's book Zero to One.
