    I'm reading a bunch of books right now (some more than others) but here's a partial list. I think there are a few more i'm forgetting and i'll see what they are when i go home tomorrow night.



    - Mastering the Trade - John Carter (My current "go to" book)

    - Never Eat Alone - Keith Ferazzi

    - Currency Trading For Dummies

    - Lords of Finance (Really interesting)

    - The World Without Us

    - Endurance: Shackletons Incredible Voyage (Incredible Story)

    - The New Market Wizards

    - Reminiscences of a Stock Operator

    - Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance




    I used to not be able to read more than 1 book at once but now i don't mind it. Some of these get read more than others but i'm working on getting through them all. Like i said, there are a few that i go to more than others. There's also a fairly long list of books i'm planning on reading after these that are just waiting on my bookshelf.


    What are you guys reading right now?

    Currently reading:

    Predictably Irrational - Dan Ariely
    Stumbling on Happiness - Daniel Gilbert
    Tournament Poker for Advanced Players - David Sklansky
    Harrington on Hold 'em Volume III - Dan Harrington

    A bunch of random articles and books for my stupid dissertation. I should have become a millionaire playboy instead of deciding to get a PhD.

    P.S. it would have been really funny if those Amazon links were tied to an Amazon affiliate account.

    Other than my law book that I eat, sleep, and breathe?

    I'm reading a book called "Life Lessons" - Elisabeth Kubler-Ross & David Kessler

    They have a couple variations, but I'd definitely recommend this one to anyone...it's wonderful. :)

    It's long as hell, but it's worth it. I think it's one of those books that everyone should try to read once.

    I'm reading:

    Traders, Guns & Money
    House of Cards
    Meltdown: A Free-Market Look at Why the Stock Market Collapsed

    Once I finish these up I'm going to start a few of those on your list, it seems like we have similar interests.

    I started to read Outliers and put it down. I didn't like it all. I've heard his other two are better but it put me off him as an author

    Same. I can't read long PDF's. I have a ton of investing ones but i can't do it. I can't just stare at a screen and read it like a normal book.
