Note: This site is currently "Under construction". I'm migrating to a new version of my site building software. Lots of things are in a state of disrepair as a result (for example, footnote links aren't working). It's all part of the process of building in public. Most things should still be readable though.

Books I Recommend (2013)

My list of books that everyone should read in order to better make their way in the world. (At least in the U.S.)

  • So Good They Can't Ignore You

  • Getting Things Done

  • Richest Man In Babaylon

  • Thou Shall Prosper

  • Rich Dad, Poor Dad (up to the part that gets slimy)

  • Paradox of Choice

  • Mindset: The New Psychology of Success Paperback by Carol Dweck

2023 Update

I don't remember reading "So Good They Can't Ignore You" or "Thou Shall Prosper". Of the other ones, I'd drop "Getting Things Done" and maybe "Richest Man In Babaylon"

I haven't re-read the other three, but I expect they hold up. The importan note about Rich Dad, Poor Dad is that it's only for the part the talks about how money works in terms of getting money to work for you with compound interest. There's a few diagrams in the book that are great for that. That's really the only part that's worth it.

Richest Mana In Babaylon is basically a long version of that idea. It's could kinda be swiched in, but it's much less to the point
