As many as I can. I’m a voracious reader who can easily read 15 to 20 books a month depending on length. There’s no real plan. I read what strikes my fancy at a given moment. 

If you’re looking for something to read that will improve your ability as an investor, I’d recommend any of the books below. All 3 of them are deeply informative and will leave an impact on you.

1. The Intelligent Investor by Benjamin Graham

Described as “by far the best book on investing ever written” by none other than Warren Buffett. “Chapters 8 and 20 have been the bedrock of my investing activities for more than 60 years,” he says. “I suggest that all investors read those chapters and reread them every time the market has been especially strong or weak.”

2. The Little Book that Beats the Market by Joel Greenblatt

As Buffett says, investing is simple but not easy. This book focuses on the simplicity of investing. Greenblatt, who has average annualized returns of about 40% for over 20 years, explains investing using 6th grade math and plain language. Putting it into practice is another story.

3. Fooled by Randomness by Nassim Taleb

The core of Taleb’s other books — The Black Swan and Antifragile — can be found in this early work. One of the best parts, for me, was the notion of alternative histories. “Mother Nature,” he writes, “does not tell you how many holes there are on the roulette table.” This book teaches you how to look at the world probabilistically. After you start doing that, nothing is ever the same again.
