Anybody have any book recommendations for general money management and investment tips? I tend to hold onto cash and am looking for a thoughtful read on building wealth. There’s a lot of options out there so anything someone found worthwhile would help me narrow it down. Thank you in advance!

If it’s one of your first personal finance books, “i will teach you to be rich” is great as a primer. Simple path to wealth is great for investing too.

Will Amex restricting guess access for Centurion Lounge actually make any difference?

I can see short term changes but the way Amex has been aggressively marketing Platinum card, we just will have overcrowding of primary card holders 🤷🏻‍♂️

What's next, everyone has to spend min. 50k a year to get Centurion lounge access or pay per visit.

I’m an early startup having raised a bit of money from family and friends to help grow my business. Time is moving fast and I’m potties I won’t hit my targets and being the return back to those who invested.
Once I have used the money that’s been invested there’s no way of seeing it again and still bringing the return quick enough.

The numbers still show it’s possible, I still believe in the concept and I’m still growing, I think I just have some imposter syndrome.

Any advice?
