  • Books that inspired me to make money

    As you know reading is fundamental and readily important to aspiring great wealth. Here are some great books that I would say to check out as they inspired in one way or another:

    Think and Grow Rich
    By: Napolean Hill

    One of those great self help books. Your mentality in life really makes a difference. Surround yourself with other like minded individuals and watch it rub off on you.

    Grinding it Out
    The story of Ray Kroc who built a small little hamburger stand in San Bernadino California into what we now know of as McDonalds. Ray was a franchising king and knew that a good product shouldnt be kept a secret.

    Marriot - The J. Willard Marriot Story

    J Williard was a poor Utah boy who married young and moved to Washington, D.C. he started with A & W root beer stands all over the city and slowly expanded to food that was in the airports and hotels until one day 50 years later he started his first hotel in Chain Bridge, Virginia. Hard work does pay off.

    Rich Dad Poor Dad
    Whether or not Robert Kiyasaki's books are true they are motivational for the simple fact that you need to get off your ass and work to be successful.

    No offense, but Robert Kiyasaki is an idiot when it comes to personal finance and money management.

        The book that really got me started with finances (and is often referenced around here) was "The Millionaire Next Door" by Stanley & Danko. Great perspective. I've actually given it as a gift a couple times as well.
