I'm a big fan of this website. Topics range from the psychology of self-improvement all the way to managing the money-side of a leveraged buy-out. I highly suggest that anyone who wants to get ahead in the game check out Kaufman's picks.

This is cool, I once went to a college well I'm still enrolled but at this college it was like a book club. I found that the more that I read the more ground I covered, so I started reading a lot of philosophy, fiction and news. Now I feel like I can contribute to society by seeing patterns and common themes that occur in society. I may not be "fully educated" or qualified to hold a degree, yet but I do know that I owe a lot of who I am to books. I think that this is true to a degree that you can be an educated, effective member in society by taking it upon yourself to read the right books. This is very empowering reading this article seeing that somebody else has a business spin to it. Being well read definitely does have its advantages.
