    CO-SIGN 7 HABITS.... EASILY ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS EVER WRITTEN DAMN....

    To Add on here are some business books I'd recommend:

    Security Analysis - Benjamin Graham
    Interpreting Financial Statments - Benjamin Graham
    The Intelligent Investor - Benjamin Graham
    How to Win Friends and Influence People - Dale Carnegie
    Margin of Safety - Seth Klarman
    Rich Dad Series: Advanced Guide To Real Estate Investing - Ken McElroy
    The Innovator’s Dilemma - Clayton M. Christensen

    Is the bolded from the the Rob Kiyosaki Rich Dad, Poor Dad series? I wouldn't recommend any books affiliated with that fraud SMH

    him or Suze Orman

    I'd recommend history books on the topic of market crashes like:

    7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen R Covey

    320

    You can’t change the family you are stuck with-err born into, but everything in life has loopholes. Born into a unique situation where the white side of his family despised blacks, the black side abhorred whites, and both sides hated the idea of mixed children, Tyson had experienced life as both white, black and biracial, rich and poor, and everything in between while simultaneously struggling to decipher his true racial identity. After having the question of “what are you?” posed to him as a child, Tyson began a lifelong journey of biracial enlightenment in search of the ultimate answer to that question. After teetering on both sides of the threshold of lower and middle class life with his white mother and her family in a world where the Caucasian race was supreme and saw no equal, Tyson was sent on a turbulent quest of self discovery, to live with the previously unknown, black parents of his permanently incarcerated father and was abruptly thrust into the antithesis of his previous life.
