Hi everyone. I decided that I had to include some of the
books that I read when I was starting out investing. I’m sure it would help you
get a better understanding from the knowledge in those books and from the wise
men that wrote those books. There’s a wealth of information there and
experience that we can otherwise never obtain.
Here are some that I personally recommend to begin with:

intelligent Investor – Benjamin Graham

and was also the mentor of Warren Buffett. It was said that he averaged an
annual return of 20%. Great read for his insights and timeless advices.
