1. " Financial Recovery: Developing a Healthy Relationship with Money ." After a season of financial illness can come one of recovery -- as taught by Karen McCall, founder of the Financial Recovery Institute and the author of "Financial Recovery: Developing a Healthy Relationship with Money." McCall starts "Financial Recovery" telling her own personal story of chronic overspending and debt after a divorce. McCall enrolled in Debtor's Anonymous and began creating her own personal program of financial recovery, which eventually became her life's work.
Readers who are looking to begin or accelerate their own personal season of financial recovery will find clarity, order, hope and inspiration in "Financial Recovery," and the eight steps McCall lays out.
2. " Warren Buffett Invests Like a Girl: And Why You Should, Too -- 8 Essential Principles Every Investor Needs to Create a Profitable Portfolio ." With the caveat that the book is based on and full of gender stereotypes (if you can, make a conscious decision from the start to suspend your political correctness -- overlook the obvious facts that not every man is overconfident and risk-loving, nor every woman underconfident and risk-averse), I suspect you might find in this book a novel angle to understanding and organizing the attitudes and viewpoints that can create a successful, long-term personal investment approach.
