Warren Buffett is the world’s third-wealthiest man alive. That means when he talks, you would want to listen. In all seriousness, though, Warren Buffett is a man with a wealth of experience many can learn from. He credits most of his success to reading and is famed for reading over 500 pages of a book every day.
“I just read and read and read. I probably read five to six hours a day. I don’t read as fast now as when I was younger but I read five daily newspapers. I read a fair number of magazines. I read 10 Kay’s. I read annual reports. And I read a lot of other things to the side-eye. I’ve always enjoyed reading. I love reading biographies for example,” he once said in an interview.
Seeing how much information this multi-billionaire guzzles per day, you would be curious to know what he is reading. Thankfully, he never fails to share this information with the rest of the world.
Here are 18 books Warren Buffett has found valuable in the course of his career. These books cover several aspects of investing, business, and success in general.
