One habit that is common among the wealthy is reading as a leisure activity<\/a>. The good thing is, despite what some people might say, Millennials actually do read a lot. In fact, you contribute to the growing demographic for the physical book market<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you don\u2019t have any personal finance books in your collection, it\u2019s time to start one. Reading personal finance books is considered a great return on investment<\/strong>. For the price of one \u2018cheap\u2019 article of clothing (which loses value as soon as you bought it), you can gain access to the lifetime wisdom of an expert, anytime, anywhere (and portable to boot).<\/p>\n

Here are 10 books about personal finance books that we can recommend for the Millennial generation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

1. The Millionaire Next Door<\/a><\/h2>\n

Author: Thomas J. Stanley<\/em><\/p>\n

\"The<\/figure>\n

Why should you read this book?<\/p>\n

Quick, imagine a millionaire. How does he\/she look like, in your head? For most people, no thanks to reality TV shows featuring the rich and the fabulous, you\u2019d get images of blinged-up persons wearing designer clothes and accessories. There might even be a big mansion with fancy car collection in the background.<\/p>\n

The Millionaire Next Door<\/em> will shatter that image, once and for all. Thomas J. Stanley does a beautiful job in explaining why looking rich is not equal to being rich<\/strong>. The delivery of this message is second to none.<\/p>\n

Best for:<\/strong> \u2018Mind-blown, all you ever knew about the millionaire lifestyle is wrong\u2019<\/em> reading experience.<\/p>\n

2. You\u2019re So Money<\/a><\/h2>\n

Author: Fanoosh Torabi<\/em><\/p>\n

\"You're<\/figure>\n

Why should you read this book?<\/h3>\n

This is the most Gilmore Girls-esque personal finance book I\u2019ve ever read. Full of pop culture and trendy \u2018in-crowd\u2019 references, Farnoosh Torabi \u2013 a media personality and a journalist \u2013 promised readers that they can still splurge for what they want, as long as they significantly skimp on other expenses<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Best for:<\/strong> Image-conscious Millennials dipping their toes in personal finance for the first time.<\/p>\n

3. Rich Dad, Poor Dad<\/a><\/h2>\n

Author: Robert Kiyosaki<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Rich<\/figure>\n

Why should you read this book?<\/h3>\n

This must-read book is a gem, simply because it emphasized the difference between assets<\/strong> (things that generate cash flow) and a liabilities<\/strong> (things that don\u2019t). It\u2019s relatable, easy to read and most importantly, inspiring. Robert Kiyosaki used two very clear polar examples \u2013 \u2018Rich Dad\u2019 and \u2018Poor Dad\u2019 \u2013 and broke down the differences between them<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Best for:<\/strong> Re-thinking how you\u2019ve been using your money as what it technically is \u2013 a tool.<\/p>\n

4. I Will Teach You To Be Rich<\/a><\/h2>\n

Author: Ramit Sethi<\/em><\/p>\n

\"I<\/figure>\n

Why should you read this book?<\/h3>\n

If you like \u2018loud and brash\u2019 yet humorous writing style, this starter personal finance book is for you. Ramit Sethi\u2019s delivery is one-of-a-kind, with a \u2018tough love, dumbo\u2019<\/strong> elder brother vibe. It\u2019s a fun read, as far as personal finance books go.<\/p>\n

Best for:<\/strong> Millennials managing finances for the first time<\/p>\n

5. The Behavior Gap<\/a><\/h2>\n

Author: Carl Richards<\/em><\/p>\n

\"The<\/figure>\n

Why should you read this book?<\/h3>\n

Napkin sketches! About investing! This usually-intimidating topic was broken down to essentially this simple message: Forget about investment forecasts and recommendations by experts<\/strong>; at the end of the day, they can\u2019t predict the outcome, too! Carl Richards talks about bad decisions people tend to make when it comes to investing<\/strong>, especially when they follow crowd mentality<\/strong>. The message is useful for most, if not all types of investment vehicles.<\/p>\n

Best for:<\/strong> Investors at all levels, from beginner to expert<\/p>\n

6. A Million Bucks by 30<\/a><\/h2>\n

Author: Alan Corey<\/em><\/p>\n

\"A<\/figure>\n

Why should you read this book?<\/h3>\n

A book about extreme, sometimes borderline shrewd methods to save money<\/strong> while building wealth. Alan Corey achieved his millionaire goal via property buying and selling, so this is a good memoir for those who have the same inclination. Instead of \u2018this is how to do x, y and z\u2019 like most personal finance books, this book is about \u2018this is how I did this\u2019.<\/strong> Not all advice is useful for everyone<\/strong>, but you\u2019re bound to be impressed by his ingenuity in some examples.<\/p>\n

Best for:<\/strong> Millennials who enjoy thriftiness as well as Millennials who enjoy reading about property-buying experience<\/p>\n

7. Warren Buffet Invests Like a Girl<\/a><\/h2>\n

Author: LouAnn Lofton<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Warren<\/figure>\n

Why should you read this book?<\/h3>\n

The title is intentionally clickbait-y, but it does not overshadow the message in LauAnn Lofton\u2019s book \u2013 that safe investments (favored by women) are better than risky investments<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Best for:<\/strong> Millennials planning for long-term investments.<\/p>\n

8. Nickel and Dimed<\/a><\/h2>\n

Author: Barbara Ehrenreich<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Nickel<\/figure>\n

Why should you read this book?<\/h3>\n

There is no better way to understand how expensive being poor actually is<\/strong> than this book, in my opinion. Barbara Ehrenreich lived undercover as a minimum-wage employee<\/strong>, and wrote about poverty as she experienced, supplemented by accounts of other minimum-wage colleagues. Many of the books in this list assumes the availability of disposable income, but not this one<\/strong>. It\u2019s about the pressure in addressing raw, actual needs<\/strong> like rent and food.<\/p>\n

Best for:<\/strong> Millennials wanting to understand the effect of poverty<\/p>\n

9. Emotional Currency<\/a><\/h2>\n

Author: Kate Levinson, PhD<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Emotional<\/figure>\n

Why should you read this book?<\/h3>\n

Even though it\u2019s written as a woman\u2019s guide, this book can benefit all genders. There is no shortage of practical money advice, so why do so many people still have money problems? Because humans are first and foremost emotionally driven creatures<\/strong>, that\u2019s why, according to author Kate Levinson, PhD. By understanding why you choose to spend money the way you do, you\u2019ll uncover emotional baggage that you can address in order to make progress<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Best for:<\/strong> Millennials who can\u2019t seem to find money-saving tips that work.<\/p>\n

10. The Rules of Wealth<\/a><\/h2>\n

Author: Richard Templar<\/em><\/p>\n

\"The<\/figure>\n

Why should you read this book?<\/h3>\n

Divided into 100+ mini-chapters, each only two pages long<\/strong> on average, Richard Templar\u2019s book was a joy to read due to its conciseness. In fact, it felt like reading a compilation of blog posts<\/strong> rather than a book. It\u2019s also an ethical book, in the sense that some mini-chapters are dedicated to the importance of staying humble <\/strong>and giving to charity<\/strong>. It\u2019s the type of book that you can just flip to any page and still learn something.<\/p>\n

Best for:<\/strong> Millennials preferring straight-to-the point, concise and good advice<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/h2>\n

If you are new to personal finance books, get any of the recommended books in this list. We curated this list with the Millennials in mind, so you\u2019ll find most of them highly relatable to you. Being good with finances is a desirable trait in this economic climate, wouldn\u2019t you agree?<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
