These are my favorite books, ranked in order of how much value I have received from reading them. There is a wide selection of investing books here – some are focused on dividend investing, some are more personal financed focused, and others are just plain ol’ investing books. The point is that as individual investors, the only thing that will make us successful is education on our topic and it is important to read the right books. These are my choice for “the right books”.[ad#tdg-embedded]

The Single Best Investment This is by far my favorite investing book, especially its focus on dividend stocks and the building of a compounding machine through dividend growth investing.
ultimate-dividend-playbook This is another great dividend growth investment book. It gets into more detail about the investing process, and the authors own approach to dividend investing.
the-four-pillars-of-investing Asset allocation is the most important decision an investor must make in designing their portfolio. This is in my mind, the de-facto guide to doing just that. Keep in mind, if you are an active investor this book will make you think twice about it.
intelligent-asset-allocator The first book by the same author as Four Pillars. More detail on asset allocation and how to build a solid well researched portfolio.
dividend-growth-investment This book takes divided investing back to basics – if you are just starting out and want to learn about dividend investing, then this is a good start. It is a little dated, but the principles are still the same.
intelligent-investor If you analyse stocks, then this is a must read. It will provide all you need to know about analysing stocks and determining value.
bogleheads This is a great book about index investing and the investment process. It covers all the major areas of the investment process.
the-only-investment-guide This book is great because it talks about the investment industry as it really is and helps to uncover how the industry really works.
wealthy-barber This was the first investment book I ever read, and I still touch base with it every year or so. Basically, save at least 10% of your income in solid investments and you will do fine over the long run. The only thing I do not like is the focus on mutual funds!
stock-operator Another book that describes how Wall Street really works. The people getting rich are the firms themselves and not the actual investors.
