"The Little Book of Common Sense Investing" by Bogle.

I've read a few dozen investment books the past five years or so, and "The Big Money" has proven to be the best so far. On top of that is was an enjoyable read. It's a perfect book for investors at all levels, beginner to expert. Just remember the 15% rule, which I believe he covers.

Here's the Amazon link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/074...667589-8801211

I am searching a book aboput the fundamentals of investing not the deep books. I am a total beginner.
Those books seem too complicated to me.

Is this Rich dad poor dad good?

What are thought about:
The Big Money
The little book of common sense investing

Stay away from the rich dad poor dad bs, just get a decent fundamental book about the markets. I would say the best book for a total beginner is still "The Intelligent Investor" by graham.
