When I arranged a lot of personal finance books that I had accumulated over the years, I couldn't help but wonder how to put everything in such a small space. Then I asked myself, if I had a very small bookshelf that could only accommodate 10 of these books, which books would I choose? I have to think hard because I like to read books, and I know a lot about life and money through everyone. The special thing about these 10 books is that they completely changed my view of money and life! They motivate me to learn more about money and pursue financial freedom! May these same books help you realize your financial dreams!

#10. 8 really rich secrets of Bo Sanchez
This is special because it was written by the missionaries - there is also a famous Filipino missionary! Bo Sanchez is the most popular inspirational book author in the Philippines. This is his first book to talk about money, business and investment.
What I particularly like about this book is that it solves one of the most critical obstacles to making money - how to reconcile money and religion. It is very important for me to live in the only Catholic country in Asia, where it is consistent in religion or money. Otherwise, I will only be confused and eventually move on to the present.
This book is full of stories about how everyday money habits make you rich or poor. It describes our most common view of money. We are taught that money is the source of all evil. When we watch our favorite TV shows, the rich are often portrayed as greedy. They only get rich through "drug" transactions or other "illegal" means. Because of this stereotype, some of us unconsciously want to get rich! Who wants to call the "bad" guy in our own soap opera a life? :]
As a result, we have internal conflicts. Some of our internal conversations are
"I want to be rich... but not so rich, so that my friends will hate me, I will no longer have friends." Hey... Who wants to be alone? ? :]
Or the most common,
"I want to be rich... I am desperate, only to win a million dollars by drawing lots to get rich."
Great tragedies never realize that you don't have to be a liar, or greedy, or become unfriendly, or win a lucrative lottery lottery - you only need to build rich money habits!
#9. Robert G. Allen's multiple income streams
This is one of the books I bought when I was in the United States. Since I like to read personal finance books, I ordered some online. I can make them cheaper because I looked at the "Second-hand book" section. Surprisingly, most of them are in a good state of reliability and look almost new.
This book is my first exposure to multiple sources of income. For those who are employees for most of their lives, I thought I could only make money from a single income - my job! I realize that having only one source of income is not a good idea, because there is only one way to make money through my salary!
Having multiple sources of income does not necessarily have a second job, not even a third job! Multiple revenue sources build systems so that money can flow through your life. This means investing time and money to learn how to build these systems.
One way is through real estate investment, where you can get a "flow" of income from the tenant's monthly rent. Another "stream" may be to get portfolio income from your stock or bond investment, such as "dividends" or "interests." If you are a singer, another "stream" may come from the royalties brought about by the publication of books or music recordings. It's better to have a lot of "flow" to get money than to make money from your "work" alone. The challenge is how to use the time, skills and money you have to set up these sources of income.
#8. The secret of T. Harv Eker's millionaire mind
The great thing about this book is that it makes you aware of the money habits you have developed since you were born. It reveals subconscious minds that hinder your economic success. Some internal conversations with yourself may be.
"I am not good enough. I will never have any income in the economy."
Or you might say
"I am poor because my parents are poor... and my grandmother is very poor... my great-grandmother is very poor...so I am always poor... .."
You may not say it out loud. You may only consider it. Worse, you may not even realize this. You want to know why you can't get anywhere. As T. Harv Eker just rightly said
"...If your subconscious and financial blueprints are not successful, then what you have learned, everything you know, everything you do will not have much impact."
#7. Timothy Ferriss' 4-hour work week
This book is about "new rich people". This group of people has time, money and mobility. They only spend 4 hours a week to make money and live the life they want. The rest of the time was spent on dancing in Buenos Aires, diving in Panama or sunning in the Hawaiian sun.
Who doesn't want to spend only 4 hours of work time instead of usually working 40 hours a week? Who doesn't want to have time to do what you really like? Who doesn't want to spend a long vacation on the beaches of Hawaii, and your business is taken care of, money is still coming in?
For employees, it provides practical tips on how to negotiate with the boss for home work arrangements. It also provides ideas on how to plan your own "mini" retirement plan, so the money still exists without you. It even discusses how to "outsource" your life!
Working 4 hours a week is easy to read. These ideas are presented in a simple and simple way, and you think you are reading a comic book. This book is very convincing and interesting. Reading it is like talking to the author face to face. You may even occasionally laugh at his jokes. [I know I have] :]
#6. Phil Town's Rule #1
When I was at a bookstore in Malaysia, I picked up the book on a whim. The book explains the investment in a very simple and understandable way. It is not scary in any way. After reading this book, it made me realize that I don't need to be afraid to invest. I just need to learn how to do this correctly.
Rule #1 is "Don't lose money."
No matter whether the market is rising or falling, don't lose money. Whether it is a bear market or a recession, don't lose money. Whether you have billions of dollars or just a few hundred dollars of investment, don't lose money.
This book discusses some of the basic myths about investing and provides a simple, successful investment strategy that takes only 15 minutes per week. It tells five key figures that are really important in determining the value of a stock or business. It even mentions the value of valuable Internet tools and the ability to manage their own investments to achieve their investment goals.
I know there may be other books about investment, but so far this is the only one I have ever encountered that makes me understand the world of investment.
#5. George S. Claessens is the richest man in Babylon
I read Rich Dad in Robert Kiyosaki, and the poorest father met the richest person in Babylon. It tells the ancient secrets of money. This book creates the phrase "paying for yourself first." In general, it means - saving. But it doesn't stop there. This book tells you that in any transaction you make, you can still "pay for yourself first." Once you have "money" savings, you can let "money" work for you.
But how can you save money when your little money is not enough to survive? If your life accounts for 110% of your income, how can you set aside 10% of your income? When creditors follow you, how do you "pay for yourself first"?
It is not easy to pay yourself first. It requires huge discipline. This is one of the reasons why it is not popular. But once you gain control over your money rather than controlling your rich money habits, your confidence will increase, and you will think that if you can do this, you can do anything. Like anything related to money, it touches everything. Your health has improved and you have done something successfully. People will wonder why you are always full of confidence. You are the richest person in any way.
Is it better to walk into the store and know that you can buy anything you want to buy because you have money [save]? Do you know that if you have an emergency, can you easily rely on your saved "contingency fund"? Is it good to be able to help your family or someone closest to you "economically" change this situation? This is the dream. It must first pay for itself first.
#4. Dr. Thomas J. Stanley's next-door millionaire And Dr. William D. Danko.
This book is based on a comprehensive study of the money habits of millionaires. The results are surprising because most millionaires are not what we usually expect. As properly described in the book,
"These people can't be millionaires! They don't look like millionaires, they don't dress like millionaires, they don't eat like millionaires, they're not like millionaires - they don't even have millions The name of the rich man. The millionaire looks like a millionaire?"
Many "next door" millionaires are the first generation. They did not inherit their license and they built them. Few of them won't spend more than $100 to buy a watch. Others don't even wear a suit to work! The type of business they are engaged in may be...
