Does anyone have any recommendations on advanced books or other resources to learn about investing ? I’m looking for something much more in depth than what I have already read which usually just explains how to eliminate debt and what dollar cost averaging is. (No debt and already dca)

I know this has been asked before but hoping for some tactical starting points. I grew up in an awesome ... but very blue collar family. My parents didn’t invest so I wasn’t exposed to it growing up. I would like to start. Would some 🐠 be willing to help a newbie navigate the best way to start. Would love recommendations on books, websites, podcasts etc. I have a relatively low risk threshold so I would like to start small and build up to a larger portfolio. I hope that makes sense. Thank you!

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.
