i start looking really har to my daily finance after reading azizi ali book-
millionnaire in me
millionnaires are from different planet

then i got motivated to invest in stock market after reading Fool's book
Motley fool investment guide
you have more than what you think.. 2nd motley book
you cant find'em in normal bookstore. i found them in 'pay less book' shops.
Really great basics for stock market.. but some chapters are non applicable to Malaysia

then another one basic book u should read is pauline yong's book:
i love stock

then better read some other articles in internet.. you'll gain knowledge as well as learn about other's mistake

carby, as i mentioned earlier, book by 'motley fools' are quite good.
