Any investment book to recommend for beginner with 0 knowledge in investment?

Discussion (9)

Well I slogged through Intelligent Investor which was pretty technical at some points but Crazy Rich Asians (the book) can really inspire you to be rich:O

For blogs wise, I would highly recommend the blogs found on this list here:​ https://blog.seedly.sg/financial-blogs-singapor...

​For videos, I don't really think you can get the best content as most are US based :) We may be creating some content for the video generation. You can see some of the FB LIVEs we have done before: https://www.facebook.com/pg/seedlysg/videos/

For books, I personally read Rich Dad Poor Dad, And realised that there were two ways to build wealth.

  1. Learn to invest (and make money work for you)
  2. Start a business

In my army days, I did 1) for awhile and asked my brother to buy local stocks for me but got burnt. Hence I went to learn to start a business, soon after, the startup wave started catching fire and thereafter, I went on that path instead :)

Other people would recommend these familiar books:

​For me, after the advent of the internet and the mobile wave, I would recommend the following:

  • Listening to podcasts instead about business and how the economy works
  • Reading content on personal finance websites or bloggers to figure out how they started growing
  • This is espeically important because it usually would be more localised :)

Intilligent Investor

Millionaire Teacher (for local context)

Millionaire Teacher by Andrew Hallem is a very good book :)
