On today's show, I review 10 personal finance books that would make great gifts and/or would be a great start to your own personal finance library. All 10 books are listed below, with the time stamp from the podcast, if you wish to jump ahead and listen to my comments on a particular book:
General Money Management
- The Wealthy Barber Returns by David Chilton (2:35)
- Wealthing Like Rabbits by Robert Brown (3:20)
- 397 Ways to Save Money by Kerry K. Taylor (9:40)
- Stop Over-Thinking Your Money by Preet Banerjee (11:06)
- Debt-Free Forever by Gail Vaz-Oxlade (11:54)
- Protecting Your Money – A Guide to Identity Theft and Fraud by Kelley Keehn (14:24)
Real Estate
- When the Bubble Bursts by Hilliard Macbeth (19:32)
- Burn Your Mortgage by Sean Cooper (23:26)
Retirement
- Victory Lap Retirement by Jonathan Chevreau and Mike Drak (27:19)
Thinking
- Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman (28:48)
Of course, I am also quite proud of my own book, Straight Talk on Your Money, which I discuss briefly at the end of the show.The first five books on the list are great for all age groups. Books #6 and #9 are particularly good for either seniors or adult children of seniors, and book #10 is great for anyone who wants to take a "deep dive" into how our brains work.
I hope you enjoy the list!
