Finance books

Do you guys ever read personal finance books to learn more? I have been a bit obsessed lately. I have purchased and read the following books in the last month:

The Total Money Makeover - Dave Ramsey

The Money Class - Suze Orman

Why Didn't They Teach Me This In School? - Cary Siegel

How to Manage Your Money When You Don't Have Any - Erik Wecks

Get a Financial Life - Beth Kobliner

The Money Book for the Young, Fabulous, & Broke - Suze Orman

Women and Money - Suze Orman

Action Plan - Suze Orman

 

Today I also subscribed to Money magazine, but I won't get my first issue for a couple of months. Do you have any suggestions for good reads? I am more into reading about everyday finance, not so much into investing. Credit, budgeting, debt, etc. So far I haven't found a plan in these books that will work 100% for me, but I think that each book has some useful information, and put together, I might come up with a decent personal plan. I am open to any suggestions!

Liz Weston is solid. I'm not so sure about Suze Orman though.

Thank you. I will check out Liz Weston. I have never heard of her.

Re: Finance books

I also listen to podcasts that have to do with personal finance. There's a ton out there.  Another good idea is to head over to Coursera's website. They have college quality courses on many topics. For example, I signed up for the the 4-week course Personal & Family Financial Planning offered completely online by the University of Florida.
