I am 15 and looking for a good investing book what is one?

Question

So i am 15 almost 16 and i have just recently been looking at the stock market and what it can do for me. I only know the basic stuff about it, like how it works and what it means to buy and sell. I really want to get into this business as i age because i love math and i believe that if i work hard enough i can make a good profit. So all i really need to know is if there is a really good book out there that can teach me more about the stock market and investing as if i was a newbie(which i technically am).

Answer 1

I would strongly recommend The Stock Market Course by George Fontanills and Tom Gentile. It covers all the basics and it is designed for beginners. It really is a comprehensive stock market book. It even directs you to online resources to further your understanding of key concepts.  After mastering this book you should pick an investment style and do further reading.

Answer 2

The first book you should read is Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki
