Just thought I would see if people wanted to post some recommended reading for the industry. Here are a few books which have made a significant impact to me personally, and I thought I would share for others.
1) Securities Analysis - Benjamin Graham & David Dodd
2) Intelligent Investor - Benjamin Graham
3) On Up on Wall Street - Peter Lynch
4) Common Stocks, Uncommon Profits - Philip Fisher
5) Buffet: The Making of an American Capitalist - Roger Lowenstein
6) The Art of War: Sun Tzu

(The title might not be correct) About 10 years ago I was visiting a Jewish friend of mine and he had this book in the guest room and I spent some time reading it. There was one part that really stuck with me. According to Judaism, the first question that a Jew gets asked when he is trying to get into heaven is whether he was ethical in his business dealings. I firmly believe that we are in the business of ethics and the best way to build a successful practice is to simply always do what is in the clients' best interest.The Last Lecture by Randy Pausch
