What Are the Best Books to Pick-Up for A Beginner?
I'm a 19-year-old college student, but luckily enough I have an LLC already and have saved a good chunk of capital from my business to start investing. However, before diving head first, I'd like to educate myself. I learn best by reading and taking hand notes, I don't believe a course is the best fit for my learning style.
So, I would like to hear any recommendations of the best books to help me build my knowledge and develop my investing strategy. Budget is not an issue, just looking for the best possible resources.

@Adam Eldaoushy read Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki is a great one to start with. But also suggest reading his Cashflow Quadrant book after as well. Great reading that struck a cord with me and pushed me to become an REI. I would also suggest you find a local REI club where you live. Attend meetings, network with other investors. You can learn a lot at these meetings as well. Hope this helps.
Hey Joe, thanks so much for the advice! I have read RDPD and loved it, never checked out his cashflow quadrant book yet so I will be picking that up. Also picked up "The Book on Rental Property Investing" by Brandon Turner if you have heard of it. Thanks again!
