Book Recomendations
Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel
My favorite book about money. The Psychology of Money explores how personal biases, ego, and emotions—rather than mathematical formulas—drive our financial decisions and determine long-term wealth.
-"Controlling your time is the highest dividend money pays."
-"Wealth is the money you don't spend"
The Boggleheads Guide to Investing by Lindauer, Larimore, and Leboeuf
A comprehensive, DIY-friendly roadmap that teaches how to build wealth through a simple, low-cost strategy of diversified index funds, tax efficiency, and long-term discipline.
-"Ignore the noise. Financial news is designed to make you trade, not to make you wealthy."
The Simple Path to Wealth by JL Collins
The Simple Path to Wealth simplifies financial independence into a single, potent strategy: spend less than you earn, avoid debt, and invest every spare dollar into a total stock market index fund (VTSAX) to buy your freedom.
-"Complex investments exist only to profit those who create and sell them. Further, not only are they more costly to the investor, they are less effective."
