Reading Lists

My journey to financial independence started with a book; Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki. I believe that there is something to learn from every book, even if it is what not to do. Inspiration can be drawn from science, philosophy, biographies and even fiction. Listed below are the books I’ve read or listened to since the start of 2018.
