Below are five financial books Which I have read and it’s worthwhile everyone to read once in a lifetime  to understand finance and how we can be financially free.

1. The Richest Man in Babylon

This book, written back in 1926 by George S. Clason, is still important today. It is a great book, a masterpiece on financial education. The book explains basic rules for building wealth. It tells the story of Babylon, the richest city in the ancient world, built not on natural resources but through hard work and cleverness. It explains money management through the story of Arkad and others. Arkad, the richest man in Babylon, shares his “seven cures for a lean purse” to help both individuals and society grow financially

2. Think and Grow Rich

Think and Grow Rich is a book written by Napoleon Hill and Rosa Lee Beeland released in 1937. The book is considered a classic in the personal development genre and has been widely influential in shaping the way people think about success and wealth. It was immediately welcomed as an antidote to hard times and remained a bestseller for decades. Many people still find its philosophy of positive thinking and its specific steps for achieving wealth both relevant and life-changing. Hill contends that our thoughts become our reality, and offers a plan and principles for transforming thoughts into riches, including visualization, affirmation, creating a Mastermind group, defining a goal, and planning.
