Greed is Good

Author Jonathan Hoenig wrote this book at age 23. It is a straightforward account of how to increase your wealth and uses examples from pop culture to illustrate his points. I picked this book up back in 1999 and loved it. I started adapting many of Hoenig’s principles and they have really been helpful throughout the years. Hoenig has a website called Capitalist Pig.com. The site also has an e-mail newsletter and Hoenig is now a Managing Member of a private investment partnership. I first saw him on some show on MTV, and since that time he has gone on to bigger and better things. This book, if you buy and read it has the no-nonsense approach to financial security and becoming an investor.
