Good books for newbs?

Forget investment books, read BLINK by Malcom Gladwell if you haven't already.

It is a book about your unconscious thoughts and when to/not to apply them to real use.

A fair bit of this logic can be applied to investing, with applicable experience/education of course.

The idea behind the book is that when you BLINK, a lot just occurred in your mind which you may not realize. This book is about realizing what just occurred and how to take advantage of it.

Amazon.com: Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking: Books: Malcolm Gladwell

This is a must read book for investing, business, decision making, and most importantly, LIFE.

Temu, thanks. I'll check it out!

Karim, did you REALLY think I hadn't already read "Intelligent Investor"?

Just kidding with ya...yeah, that book is definitely on the "must read" list for anyone investing in ANYTHING. No doubt.

The automatic millionaire by David Bach is a great book, however its not necessarily stock market related. Alot of its content can be applied to money management and investing though.
