Educational Resources for Investors

Abstract

Critical thinking, curiosity, and a healthy dose of skepticism are necessary traits of a successful long-term investor. While gut feeling when making decisions is significant and good judgment about the trustworthiness of an advisor is also important, I must stress that an educated, broad perspective on wealth and its meaning cannot and should not be outsourced to an advisor. I will recommend a few books which should form your core reading list as well as share the names of some national organizations that seek to bring investors together in the spirit of collaboration and learning.
