This article is a list, in no particular order, of the best investing books I have read and the ones I think you will find the most helpful.

Why nine books?

I looked at all the books on my book shelf and audio device and these were the ones I found the most valuable. I would have liked to make the list ten but could not find another that I thought would benefit you as much as the books I had already selected.
 
Besides, nine books to read does not sound as intimidating as ten.
