The book that I read this time for the Personal Finance section of Book Club was very different. In all honesty, The Year of Less by Cait Flanders is more a memoir than a Personal Finance book. But the book starts on a Personal Finance premise and when you look through the really personal details […]

There are a number of enriching personal finance books that can help us in understanding all aspects of Personal Finance better.
Every second Friday, the post enumerates the learnings from a best selling Personal Finance book.
The Success Principles – Jack Canfield with Janet Switzer
For a long time, I have looked at with disdain towards non-fiction. When it came to books talking about motivation or success, I used to bundle them in my head as completer balderdash. Thankfully, the epiphany happened and my brain opened up to receive this wisdom better. This led me to the popular book “The […]
Your Money or Your Life: Vicki Robin
One of the books I have heard a lot of people rave about in the PF blogosphere has to be Vicki Robins’ Your Money or Your Life which was recently updated by the author. When so many people have good things to say about a book, my first instinct is to get a copy and […]

Book Club – The Intelligent Investor
When asked who’s the world’s greatest and best-known investor, the answer is mostly unanimous with the name of Warren Buffet. However, when Warren Buffet acknowledges someone as his mentor and from whom he has learned the basics of value investing, you know you really need to sit up and pay attention. You might […]
Book Club – Dave Ramsey’s Complete Guide to Money
Another Friday and another book. This time I finally read a book by one of the really famous money guys – Dave Ramsey! However, since debt is not the single point focus of this blog, I decided to swerve a little from the popular favorite Dave Ramsey book of the Total Money Makeover and instead […]

The book that I picked up to talk about today is – The little book that builds wealth. The sub-title of the book puts forth what you can expect from the book quite clearly – The knockout formula for finding great investments. The book is written by Pat Dorsey and was first published […]
