Resource Recommendation

Top books for Investing:

1) Millionaire Teacher by Andrew Hallam.
This was the first book I read that provided the bridge between wanting to invest across the entire market, and actually learning how to go about doing so. It has specific sections targeted towards Canadians and does a fantastic job at depicting how you can amass significant wealth with the correct strategy. The book is written in a format that is very easy to follow.


2) The Intelligent Investor by Benjamin Graham
This may very well be the most valuable and fundamental book on investing there is. If you were to ask the legendary investor Warren Buffet which one book to read, he would tell you this one. This book will teach you about value investing and give grounds to develop a keen eye for value. Especially read this book if you are interested in buying individual stocks and managing your own portfolio.


Top Websites for Index Investing:

1) Canadian Couch Potato - Your Complete Guide to Index Investing.
This website has a tone of high quality posts targeted directly towards Index investing. Browse through recent and past posts and engage with others that are passionate about index investing!

2) Andrew Hallam`s website. (Author of Millionaire Teacher)
Andrew has a vast collection of articles on his website, many of them relating to index investing. Another fantastic source of information.

Top Other Source for Index Investing

1) How to Win the Loser's Game (video).
An 80-minute documentary that does a fascinating job at comparing actively managed funds and passively managed index funds. Very informative and easy to follow. It takes a main focus on British investing, but the concepts are fundamental and applicable to any markets. If you are unsure about the legitimacy of the index investment strategy, watch this video.

This list will remain an interactive area where we continually add recommended sources. If you have other recommendations please add them to the comment section so we can continually make this list more resourceful!

  1. No love for The Value of Simple? Do you need a review copy?

    Bogle's Little Book of Common-Sense Investing was also good, even if it was originally written for Americans.

    1. Hello, I have not read these books yet (I have a long list to get through). I am only recommending resources I have read so far. This list will remain interactive and resources will be added in the future for sure.
      Thank you for the feedback!
