I have one on buying stocks and it's too technical and boring...

You can take a look at Milan Doshi's book on Malaysian Real Estate...
might also want to check out The Warren Buffett Way on stocks...

Anyway, these are just books for your reading pleasure... better if you can learn from someone with hands on experience... everyone is an investor or that's how most people address themselves... just how successful that person is, is subjective...

no bank is going to loan you a single cent if you want to buy shares... at TS's age... without FAMA, you can't get any loan by yourself...

also 50k into the stock market without any prior knowledge is like dumping it into the sea...

uncle... give something more constructive ler...

You should take what Robert Kiyosaki says in his books with a huge grain of salt. His books can be very misleading by re-defining the meanings of basic terms like debt, asset, liability...

Read these first before you really believe everything R. Kiyosaki wrote:

http://www.consumerismcommentary.com/2006/...saki-is-a-liar/

I know it's a very long article, but I just want you guys to be careful before following Rich Dad Poor Dad's advice blindly.

when some people are successful, there are bound to have people going against them...

if you read carefully the comments by the people strongly opposing Kiyosaki, you'll notice that they take his book as a how-to rather than an ideology...

different people interprets things in a different way, no right or wrong...

i find his books very informative, the thing that you'll figure out eventually is he simplified a lot of stuff and a lot of things a kinda too perfect but again, its a great book to actually change your mindset from following the conventional way of investing...
