I want to start recruiting for PE in a years time. What resources would you recommend for thinking like an investor? Looking for podcasts, books, articles etc.

Seeking advice / recommendations:
Hello everyone, I'm trying to get into real estate investing. Some of the books I've read have talked about buying multi-unit properties and utilizing investors to get the necessary capital. Does anyone have experience in getting investors? How do you identify investors who may be interested? Are there any sites where you can invest in or post real estate investment opportunities?
Thank you in advance

I’m interested real estate investing (buying my first house this year) and would like to learn more. Does anyone have book recommendations? I can’t decide between flipping or rental income properties but also need to just learn about the whole home buying process.

What blogs/books/resources should I seek out if I want to make the transition from passive trading (index funds/buy and hold blue chips) to more active trading (options, speculation, spending a few hours a week researching, etc)? I’m looking to turn my investing into more of a side hustle

Suggestions for Personal Finance books? I'm somewhere in the middle of the road - don't need the basics like the need to save a rainy day fund, pay off student loans (I already have that covered plus have hit a number of milestones including putting the down payment our first home), but I'm also not really interested in super aggressive investing like day trading or watching individual stocks very closely.

Hi all- I’m new to real estate investing. What are some books/ reading materials you would recommend to learn about selecting the right investment property, things to look out for, laws etc.?

We have HHI of 260k excluding bonus. Currently own a house (current value is 440k) with 45% mortgage remaining. Planning to buy a new house of 500k. Combined mortgage of both house would be approx 4.7k per month. We both max out 401k and I normally invest 25k via megadoor roth + 2 529s for both kids. Q is Can I afford new house or should I sell current buy and book the profit since realty mkt is so high and our house has the max value currently?

I am new to investing. Can anyone share a book/blog where I can read basics, aka, investment 101?

Any tips on investing? How did you get over the fear of losing money or making risky investments? Recommendations on personal finance blogs/books/podcast/etc?

What’s the best investing book you’ve ever read?

Look people, be careful when the market takes a downturn. I lost a significant amount in gains because I had people I trusted that told me to do things in March.

I should have known better and followed the investment books.

People who know nothing are going to talk during bear markets. Block out the noise and continue to DCA into index funds..

I have a 19 year old niece I am going to help set up her first investment account. (I’m a proud Aunt!). She wants to put some money she has saved up - about $5k- into a mutual fund that “is environmentally conscious”. I was going to chip in a bit more for her Christmas gift and help her identify a fund that she would like to pick as her first.
Any recommendations on “environmentally conscious” funds? Or also any book or website geared toward her demographic (19 year old )? Thank you!

Hello all, very new to investing have some cash to put into the market (10k to start) any helpful resources? Books, videos, you would recommend? Already reading a simple path to wealth and I will make you rich. Going to buy VOO but want to know how to pick good stocks like I see some folks here doing (to be clear I won’t put most of my money in stocks at least till I know what I’m doing)

Any tech interview prep services you recommend? Is there a Case in Point book for bizops? I landed a FAANG bizops interview and might invest $$ to avoid blowing this opportunity.

Recent grad trying to break into art directing. I can’t afford portfolio school so I’m resorting to creating a “homemade” portfolio book. I have the graphic design skills, and I am willing to invest a few thousand into creating my book. What advice and resources would you recommend for this endeavor?

What are the top Investment Book of Record (IBOR) systems used today at top investment management firms? I’m interviewing later this week for a position that would implement an IBOR system. Any insight would be helpful.

Any great personal finance/investment books to read? Or even YouTubers/Podcasters

Really looking into expanding my investment horizons — particularly about learning about how to allocate my investment portfolio. Also, always nice to learn about better ways to save and cutback.

I come from a pure healthcare background and have minimal finance skills/experience. Want to eventually get in healthcare investing in a MM PE fund.

Is there anyway that I can start to make moves on this, while at my Big 4? Who are the best types of folks to reach out to at my Big 4?

Anything I should get smart on? Websites, podcasts, books to read?

Hey there 🐠, any good beginner investment book/ course recommendations for someone trying to get their feet under them before meeting with an advisor?

Advice to young lawyers. Read a book.

I saw the thread about savings and many young lawyers (20s and 30s) don’t know how to open up a brokerage account or invest in their 401k. I know they don’t teach personal finance in school (though they should!), but my advice is that you should go to your local library and read a book about the subject. You have the skills necessary but you must invest in yourself. No one will look out for you.

I’m a newbie with investing...basically know nothing and wanted to ask. What sort of research do you guys do before investing in stocks? Any books you recommend? Only thing I have is index funds with VBAL so far on a friend’s recommendation. Thanks!

Planning to purchase first rental investment property next spring. Any books or articles recommendations for basics?
