There are no specific topics we should be interested in, only good books that range from
marketing, finance, economics, stock trading, corruption, power, anything!

Expand your mind and read some actual good shit like Crime and Punishment.

Nonfiction is pretty pleb honestly, most of this stuff can be distilled into a couple of sentences.

Interesting advice.
reminds me when I was recommended Fountainhead when I wanted to dwell into Ayn Rand's Objectivism.

These books are all flavor of the week crap.

Throw them all away and replace them with Adam Smith's The Wealth of Nations and Thomas Sowell's Basic Economics.

the OP picture wasn't meant to be an intro to econ, it was meant for broadening your perspective after you finished any one of macro 101 textbooks.

If you had read some macro textbooks you would know OPs books are just snake oil.

I have read macro textbooks. And I know OP books because I'm the one who put that pic together. As i said, they are meant for some light reading someone in another thread asked for, but are still worthwhile, regardless what you think? How many of them did you read anyway?

I finished "Too Big To Fail" yesterday, really good book about 2008, Lehman's bankruptcy and the response of the Treasury/Fed.

I'm now reading "When Genius Failed", I'm planning to read "The Big Short" after this. Any other suggestions for books like this?

Do you guys read books like this more than once? I feel like if you only read it once you just can't retain enough information. And after all, actually remembering the information is the whole point of non fiction books.
