What are good books to read about stock investing and mutual funds?

1. Well, I think Investing for Dummies was pretty informative and unbiased. I like to read the articles on www.money.com. It is a site from CNN and is extremely useful for understanding different kinds of investments.

2. I highly recommend anything by Jim Cramer from CNBC's Mad Money. Specifically, his last book Jim Cramer's Mad Money: Watch TV, Get Rich os a great resource on how to pick stocks, and his most recent book Jim Cramer's Stay Mad for Life: Get Rich, Stay Rich (Make Your Kids Even Richer) is a great resource for longterm retirement investing where he analyzes mutual funds for 401(k)/IRA investing. Both are great!!!

Good luck!

3. Check out the following links for a list of some good books. It's a lot of reading but worthwhile. Some of them you can probably get from your library and save on the cost.
