Ask anyone what they wish they had learned in school, and the answer is likely money. 

Financial Management includes managing the day-to-day operations and keeping within budget. 

It also includes making Long-Term Investments and obtaining the financing for your operations.

Personal Finance books will help you manage your money better. 

Once you learn personal finance basics-like why paying yourself first pays off, how to manage and pay off debt, and more- you'll become more thoughtful and more confident with how you handle your money.

It may not be easy reading all these books, but the step to Financial freedom starts somewhere. Your wallet will thank you.

Rich Dad Poor Dad

You probably have seen or heard of Robert Kiyosaki and his book "Rich Dad Poor Dad," but there must be a reason that this book has stuck around for more than two decades. This book has been considered one of the most popular personal finance books of all time. Why?

In this book, Kiyosaki shares what he has learned from both his dads growing up, His Rich dad, who wasn't his real dad, and his Poor Dad, who was his real dad.

These lessons include how you don't need to get a lot of money to get rich and the importance of building up your assets and reducing your liability.

The Richest Man in Babylon

Source

"The Richest man in Babylon' or "Babylonian parables." In this book, George S. Clason explains the success secret of the Ancients in the form of Parables. 

This book is acknowledged as one of the greatest inspirational works on personal wealth, financial planning, and thrift. 

The language is like the one found in the Bible; these informative stories set you on a sure path to prosperity and joy. 

This bestseller offers you an understanding of-and a solution to-your personal financial problems that will guide you through a lifetime.

This business book holds the secret to keeping your money and making more money. 

May these books prove for you, as they have proven a sure key to gratifying financial progress for millions of others.

Think and Grow Rich

Source

"Think and Grow Rich" is a masterpiece not only because it has sold over a hundred million copies worldwide but also because it is one of the most outstanding books out there.

This book's philosophy centers around the idea of success, in any endeavor, can be reached through mental visualization and imagination. 

In simple terms, you can be anything your mind deems possible.

As a result, your mind becomes the one thing that can either stop your progression or propel you towards the best version of yourself.

"The starting point of all achievement is DESIRE,

Keep this in mind; weak desire will bring weak results, as a small fire makes a small amount of heat."

 ― Napoleon Hill, Think and Grow Rich.

The power of Habit - Charles Duhigg

Personal finance books don't always have to do with money, and this book is an excellent example of that.

In this book, Charles Duhigg explains why habits exist and ways to change them. 

As you read the book, you will see so many scenarios of how people and companies struggle to change, and despite years of trying, they never do. In contrast, another person or company can change overnight.

In this book, you will discover how significant a role your habits play in the grand scheme of your life and how the proper habits were essential in the lives of successful people like Starbucks, CEO Howard Schultz, Martin Luther King, and so many more!

The key to losing weight, exercising regularly, raising exceptional children, becoming productive, and building revolutionary companies and social movements can all be found in this book.

Our habits are not our destiny.

In this book, Charles Duhigg shows that we can transform our businesses, communities, and lives by looking for proper habits.

CONCLUSION

Everyone wants to achieve financial freedom.

But the question is, how many would take a step to conquer our fears and reach our goals? If we could conquer the greatest fear, failure, then nothing would hold us back from pursuing our goals.

Thank you for reading, and good luck.

All excellent choices for reading when it comes to understanding and learning about all things financial. Many people could get a ton of useful philosophy and information to build their wealth. I especially like the Rich Dad, Poor Dad one and the Think and Grow Rich one. Excellent reads with a wealth of valuable insight and information.

I have long said that money and building wealth is not about how much one makes, or even necessarily about how much one has the ability to start off with. It's about what one DOES with it. It's about the plan, the strategy, commitment, and consistency.

These are the foundations of wealth building and sound and structured financial planning and management.

Thoroughly enjoyed your article.

I couldn't agree more with your logic, and I believe that even if a poor person were to get rich, they will remain poor because what they do with their money would be way different than what a financially independent person would do.

One lesson I learned from these books is that wealth comes from your mindset, and when your mindset towards acquiring wealth changes, you will ultimately begin to achieve what you want.

As I was reading the introduction of this article, the first thing that came to my mind was rich dad poor dad, and surprisingly it's the first book you mentioned. I still have the PDF of it in my phone as well as the richest man in Babylon, but I am yet to finish reading them

Saving is a fantastic idea, Doll. But don't save it all; maybe you could invest in some crypto or tokens.

After building an economic freedom, making money by running money and increasing your values requires knowledge, experience and most of all, experience. One of the most important supports in this process is courage. It takes some luck to do the right job at the right time, all combined to produce the desired quantities.

Well pointed out young boy. A lot of people having money but not scene to spend it. A lot of girls like me spending their parents money blindly. But they don't know how their parents struggled to make their lives like Princess. If we learn the way how to spend money in productive way than you are successful person. Experience and knowledge is necessary.

I have read maybe 3 out of all the books you listed but my problem with some of this books is that some of their ideas and logics don’t relate to me..

Take for example rich dad poor dad roberts centers his examples on American economy and society and sometimes it’s hard to grasp the essence of these examples talk more to put them in practice because our economy is nothing like the Americans economy .. thinks like mortgage ..it’s just sighs I hope I am making sense

Yeah, that could be a problem, but if you look at the positive sides like we don't have to pay taxes, we don't have to pay mortgages, and our laws are not as strict as theirs, which gives us more chances to do things they can't do.

For example, you can make 1000 dollars in America, and the government takes 650 out of it because of taxes, but here in Nigeria, you don't have to give them anything. You can apply the rules in Nigeria. You have to look for situations. I hope it makes sense!

All the books you mentioned are great except "Think and Grow Rich", which is a proven scam. The author (Napoleon Hill) died penniless... I read it and would rate it with 3.5/10

The power of habits is a great one! The richest man in Babylon also! That book teaches about the importance of 10-10-10 strategy. Lovely!

Thank you for sharing this! Have a splendid day 🤗

I recently finished reading "The power of habits," It is a fantastic read; I can also say the same about "The Richest Man In Babylon."

The stories were genuinely eye-opening on how money works, especially Arkads 7 cures to a lean purse. I didn't know that about "Think and Grow Rich," it seems like a nice book; I would look into that.

To get rich we need to first conquer every ounce of fear and doubt in us, after which we need to discipline ourselves in order ti control our expenses while reducing liabilities to the minimal.

Getting rich is easy; the problem is how to manage that money! Many people are rich, but you need to make your money work for you to be financially independent.

If you are a business minded person, then you know how to manage money, but not all. There are people how to handle money even if they debts.
