Audiobooks are awesome!

They’re books, except you can listen to them whenever you want. You’ve probably heard about Audible and maybe even Scribd, two platforms that make finding any audiobook you want a total breeze.

Here’s a collection of the best finance audiobooks, available immediately in audiobook form. These fantastic titles have shaped the lives of numerous wealthy individuals, inspiring them to take charge of their lives and finances.

2.     The Millionaire Next Door


Have you ever wondered what makes successful people tick? The authors of ‘The Millionaire Next Door’ did just that. They grouped people into groups based on their ability to accumulate wealth and then looked into what behaviors each group had in common.

The Intelligent Investor is the investment audiobook to read if you want to become serious about investing and finance. Written by Warren Buffet’s mentor, Benjamin Graham, this book will walk you through the central tenets of what is known as value investing.

It’s not an easy book to get through so you may want to give this one multiple listens. Maybe even take some notes, because this book is definitely more textbook than storybook.

 

 

5.     The Little Book of Common Sense Investing

Jack Bogle is the man who pioneered ETFs for the average investor. The ex-CEO of Vanguard championed index-investing, or passive investing, over traditional mutual funds. He knew that the deck is stacked against the everyman when it comes to investing in mutual funds.

In his book, he espouses his philosophy and teaches readers the importance of diversifying your portfolio and how to invest for the long run.

David Bach is well known for his books on personal finance. Have you ever heard of the phrase, “pay yourself first”? If you have it’s because of David Bach.

His book will give you a powerful framework of common-sense investing principles.

 

 

 

 

7.     One Up On Wall Street

If you want to read an investing audiobook, look no further than Peter Lynch’s ‘One Up On Wall Street’. Every investor has his own style, and Peter Lynch used his method to grow his Fidelity Magellan fund from $20 million to $14 billion.

His philosophy in a nutshell: invest in things you understand. After thorough research, Lynch would only invest in stocks and companies that he truly understood and whose products he believed in.

 

 

8.     Rich Dad, Poor Dad

Robert Kiyosaki wrote this personal finance classic in 1997. It’s based on his childhood and tells the story of two fathers. One is highly educated, but financially incompetent – the poor dad. The other is more financially literate (the rich dad).

This book will change your life and how you view money. Don’t read it unless you want to spend time thinking deep thoughts.

 

 

9.  The Money Book For The Young, Fabulous And Broke

Written by Suze Orman, this audiobook is perfect for anyone fresh out of college.

Many people leaving college are faced with the reality that they just don’t know that much about money. Financial markets, real estate, credit scores, and home ownership are complete mysteries to a recent college grad, and this book goes a long way to giving people the knowledge they need.
