Debt is Slavery and 9 Other Things I Wish My Dad Had Taught Me About Money, By Michael Mihalik

This book is actually a great read. It includes very short chapters, which also makes it an easy read. If it’s available electronically, I would definitely recommend that version if it’s less expensive. Mainly, because you can read a chapter in about ten minutes during a work break or on your phone. ♥♥

Financially Stupid People Are Everywhere: Don’t Be One of them, By Jason Kelly

All in all, the book is definitely worth the read. It is not necessarily a book that teaches and focuses solely on personal finance, but it can leave the reader with a sour taste for the government and big corporations, which should make the reader want to fight back.

The Total Money Makeover, By Dave Ramsey

The Total Money Makeover is a great personal finance book for anyone who seeks to get out of debt. The Total Money Makeover is great motivational book that has inspirational stories of common people through. 

The Wealthy Barber, By David Chilton

I absolutely loved “The Wealthy Barber.” The thing that I loved most about this book was it gave no absolutes. Too many books about personal finance argues only one point.  The overall tone of the book is that there are different ways and approaches to everyone’s path to financial success though, there are some “best practices.” ♥♥♥

Celebrity Inspired Inspirations, By Yolanda Gibson

Yolanda Gibson does a great job to imbue hope in her readers by linking the lives of people who once struggled, but later became millionaire celebrities, to the common man or woman. Celebrity Inspired Inspirations is filled with inspiring quotes that makes the reader stop, think, and reflect on its philosophical meaning. ♥♥

If the keys are religiously followed, this book will create a lasting positive effect on the way people view their money–They will be able to tackle the world of personal finance with extreme wealth building confidence. ♥♥

The Creature from Jekyll Island: A Second Look at the Federal Reserve, By G. Edward Griffin

Overall, The Creature from Jekyll Island is a great read for anyone who wants a better understanding of what the Federal Reserve is and does, the history of money, how Big Banks REALLY ARE TOO BIG TO Fail, and how the little guy will always be screwed in the end because of the Federal Reserves inflationary monetary policies that continously diminishes the value of the dollar, consequently lowering its purchasing power. ♥♥
