Book recommendations for your start

Anyone who deals with the topics of investment and finance cannot avoid reading a book or two. But don’t worry: the reading material doesn’t have to be dry as dust! Many of the books presented here tell great stories from which you can take a lot for yourself. Some of them even serve to motivate you to delve deeper into the subject matter, or to get started in the first place. I present here a number of classics that are worth reading, which I myself devoured at the start of my journey to long-term wealth accumulation and found to be good.

Robert Kiyosaki – Rich Dad Poor Dad

In his book, Rich Dad Poor Dad, Robert Kiyosaki* recounts his childhood and tells of his two fathers who could not have been more different. While his biological father brought home an average salary each month, his second father was exceedingly wealthy. He was actually the father of a school friend who cared a lot about him and his friend and was always trying to help them both get ahead in life. While his biological father had studied, his second father made a lot of money as an entrepreneur without studying.

In this book, Robert Kiyosaki explores the different attitudes and advice of both men and draws lessons from them to share with the reader. A lot of it is about how to simply save money so that you can eventually become financially free.

André Kostolany – The art of thinking about money

André Kostolany is certainly one of the most famous and successful speculators of modern times, who was active on the stock market for over 80 years and unfortunately passed away in 1999. No wonder that his book “The Art of Thinking About Money*” revolves around the stock market and shares. However, Kostolany also attached great importance to the subject of psychology. Among other things, he has the wisdom to simply buy shares and then take sleeping pills in order to be rich when you wake up. Because on the way there, psychology repeatedly sets traps that tempt you to sell in advance.

Christian W. Röhl – Stay cool and collect dividends

Christian W. Röhl is an advocate of the dividend strategy and has selected appropriate quality stocks under the label “Dividendenadel”. In his book “Stay cool and dividends collect*” he shows why the dividend share is not only the new, but also the better real estate. Those who own a concrete gold with regular rental income usually don’t care that the value of their property fluctuates as long as they don’t want to sell. This is similar with high-quality dividend stocks. Over the years, one diligently collects an often annually increasing dividend and does not care about the price of the share on the stock exchange. The book gives numerous practical examples.

He describes how to convince other people and how to change oneself.
