One thing I know about myself is that it gets a bit hard to operate on a budget and teaching oneself to be disciplined requires a commitment. Thank you for these suggestions; this is very timely considering that I recently started becoming an avid reader.

I've seen the title that it will make me rich. It reminded me of the many pop-up ads saying that I will follow their steps in order for me to get rich. For me personally, we become rich when we are contented with what we have, like families and... See more

I agree with you completely, and that is why you will find people who tell you they can never read self-help books. However, there's always something to learn and you don't have to apply any principle that you feel doesn't apply to your... See more

Books are good when it comes to teaching us the principles, but the most difficult thing is usually whether or not we are able to follow. It's always easier said than done.

To be frank, I never thought that I would get all kinds of financial advice from a book but now it seems that there are lessons to be picked from these books. My favorite from the list is 'The $100 startup'.

I may not be the best spender out there, but this hasn't been enough to make me read any finance e-books. Thanks to this collection, I now have a great place to start my journey of financial discipline.

Financial discipline doesn't come easy for anyone. I love reading books where the author gives practical advice and also narrates a story of his struggles (if any). I agree that Dave Ramsey is such a great writer!
