Great Investment Books For Every Investor

Each year, there are hundreds of new investment books published. Some of these books claim to be the investing equivalent of a miracle drug, helping you to get rich quick. Other books claim to be full of "tried and true" principles. Some books are all about playing the market right now, and others are all about playing the market for the long term. Some of these books are written by famously successful investors, and others are written by investors you have never heard of; sometimes, you have never heard of them for a reason. With so many options out there each year, it begs the question: Which books are the right books? The answer is actually rather simple: forget about all these books; instead, go back to the ones that have been around, the ones that have stood the test of time. While there are certainly valuable books that have been published over the last few years, these long-standing books have been proven to be absolutely invaluable, and they will help you lay a great foundation. All three of these books are full of advice and wisdom that will help any investor, whether you are brand new at this or have been doing it for ages.
