Default Best Investing/Personal Finance

Any recommendations for books related to Investing/Personal Finance? Be curious to see what you all think.

Some I have found to be good reads include:
-Millionaire Next Door
-Millionaire Mind
-Richest Man in Babaylon
-Wall Street Journal Guide to Understanding Money and Investing or a Suzi Orman book that explains things at a very detailed level

A few books that help sharpen analytical skills (very important in investing):
Blink
Tipping Point
Freakonomics
Question Behind the Question

Thanks.

As far as personal finance, i would recommend Dave Ramsey's The Total Money Makeover or Financial Peace.

The Bogleheads' guide to investing.

It's a very good book, even if you're ultimately not a Boglehead.

The Intelligent Investor: A Book of Practical Counsel
By Benjamin Graham

Very detailed, kind of a hard read and intimidating. But if you want to invest long term and think of your investments as "owing the company" instead of "owning the stock" then this is the book for you.
