These three books have all driven me to ask different questions to help with the directions I’ve gone when it comes to ways to help the compensation packages we receive do better for us over time. The topic of personal finance has gone from something I”ve been afraid to talk about to now one of my favorite topics of discussion, and a lot of that is because of these three books. Would love to hear from you if you have any other references you recommend to others that have helped drive you into different ways to help your money do better for you.ENJOY THE CONTENT?
