The first book I would recommend is called "The Automatic Millionaire". It is nothing groundbreaking or new. I can't believe this guy got rich off of writing these books. I would never buy one of his books. But I read them at the library. It is full of 100% common sense. Very important common sense. Follow it. Don't try anything that involves "tricks", paying someone else to predict the future for you, or anything like that. (You can predict the future just as well as the professionals.) Personal finance is indeed 100% common sense. Your public library. The first book I would recommend is called "The Automatic Millionaire". It is nothing groundbreaking or new.

Take advantage of your 401K if you have one. If not, learn about IRAs (both traditional and roth). If you are young, you can get a good head start on your retirement savings. As for other financial goals, you'll either need to talk to someone for advice, or really just read and learn a lot. Another tip. Don't be dumb with your money. educate yourself.

They have books (free) that would supply you with ideas of where to begin. At some point you may need some additional professional advise, but there is a lot of information out there to get you started. I think I would start at the local library.
