Tony is always talk­ing about books he’s read that have helped him with his invest­ing. Here’s a list he rec­om­mends.  

Here is the book recount­ing the life and times of one of the most respect­ed men in the world, War­ren Buf­fett. The leg­endary Oma­ha investor has nev­er writ­ten a mem­oir, but now he has allowed one writer, Alice Schroed­er, unprece­dent­ed access to explore direct­ly with him and with those clos­est to him his work, opin­ions, strug­gles, tri­umphs, fol­lies, and wis­dom.

Leg­endary mon­ey man­ag­er Peter Lynch explains his own strate­gies for invest­ing and offers advice for how to pick stocks and mutu­al funds to assem­ble a suc­cess­ful invest­ment port­fo­lio.

Start­ing from scratch, sim­ply by pick­ing stocks and com­pa­nies for invest­ment, War­ren Buf­fett amassed one of the epochal for­tunes of the twen­ti­eth century—an astound­ing net worth of $10 bil­lion, and count­ing. His awe­some invest­ment record has made him a cult fig­ure pop­u­lar­ly known for his seem­ing con­tra­dic­tions: a bil­lion­aire who has a mod­est lifestyle, a phe­nom­e­nal­ly suc­cess­ful investor who eschews the revolv­ing-door trad­ing of mod­ern Wall Street, a bril­liant deal­mak­er who cul­ti­vates a home­spun aura.

In his lat­est best­seller, Atul Gawande shows what the sim­ple idea of the check­list reveals about the com­plex­i­ty of our lives and how we can deal with it.
