The purpose of reading any books including investment books is to acquire the author’s idea or insight.
That is why people are willing to buy a book which may cost RM100 or RM300. The purpose is to acquire the knowledge or idea which may be worth RM1000, RM10K or RM100K.
Whatever knowledge that we gain will be with us for life. Nobody can ever take it away from us. Whether we lose our job or our house tomorrow, we can always start over with the knowledge that we gained...with a bit of luck and capital!
Just my weekend blowing water! 😃
Just sharing my point of view as well.
I have from finance and accounting education background. So i have pretty solid intermediate knowledge from finance and accounting.
I stop reading investment book totally few years back. Investment is part of everyone life no matter you invest in FD stock, currency, previous meta or mining coin etc.
People should read more historical book like war, some art book, philosophy and psychological book etc to have better picture for how our world going.
Beside reading, i actively involved in business as well.
By doing business you actually indirectly improve your investment insight as well. Like getting info from supplier, banker, visit people factory, talking to expertise in specific field, nego with customer, or something like u put a focus on how new tech is going etc.
