Recommended Reading

[The Rule of Two 1]

Fiction, trade-related and other non-fiction are all welcome.

 

Some of my recommendations are below. I'll keep my non-fiction suggests to relatively practical reads. I could easily fill this list with economics, politics, history or psychology, but speaking for myself at least, I don't have enough time at present to indulge such hobbies.

non-fiction

1. Thinking Fast and Slow (Daniel Kahneman)
2. The Lessons of History (Will Durant)
3. The Power of When (Michael Breus)
4. Endgame (John Mauldin)
5. The Coddling of the American Mind (Jonathan Haidt)
6. Skin in the Game (Nassim Taleb) 
7. The Bulletproof Diet (Dave Asprey)*
8. Influence (Robert Cialdini)
9. Talent is Overrated (Geoff Colvin)
10. Zero to One (Peter Thiel) 

 

*some of his recommendations are a bit extreme, and tend to do better for fairly sedentary people (people who exercise regularly need more carbs, even on a keto diet. otherwise, they will deplete their glycogen stores and be too fatigued to maintain a consistent routine of 3+ times a week)

 

fiction

1. The Darth Bane Trilogy (Drew Karpyshyn) he literally trades stocks in one of the books lol
2. The Goal (Eli Goldrat)
3. Silence of the Lambs (Thomas Harris)
4. White Fang (Jack London)
5. Jason's Gold (Will Hobbs)
