Any books to recommend regarding lifestyle, business model, finance, or relationships?

Been pirating and reading some books, but still need more to satisfy my knowledge hunger

Raina has given you good books and suggestions.

I have a more important advice for you though.

Stop pirating. Pay for your knowledge/content.

Until you do so, you'll never be successful no matter how much you read. You need to have skin in the game.

i do believe knowledge is free, if u have the means to find it, why buy it?

most people buy books for the sake of buying books, not reading them. i was once like that, i have books but im not reading them, might as well do the opposite and not buy any, but download them, the outcome i desire is to acquire knowledge, which is the same outcome for buying and download books, while one u will have to pay and another is free

For starters, you won't appreciate what you read. So it doesn't really embed itself inside you, end up you read and read and read and read, but still stuck in the same place.

If you picked up a book for free, you'll read it whenever. Flip through the pages, do a shallow read, etc. if you paid money for it, you're more likely to extract as much value from it to justify the purchase price.

Its the same reason I always advice people to pay for software which they use to do their work. There is a value perception and re-alignment that happens when you do that; and it changes the way you see your own work/future as well.

until now i've probably read about 10 books regarding self help books, all downloaded and read on phone, i get what you mean, that a person will value something more as for what he or she had paid, however physical book is actually a burden a carry everywhere when i can just read it on my phone, its more a matter of accessible but not the money, and its more of how bad you want to know things from the book
