Do I have time to read 20 investment books next two months?

Introduction

It is so interesting for me to spend last long weekend to work on a small booklet called smartest investor you ever know Canadian version. I tasted how good it can be to read a book since I learn that no matter how good a video can be on youtube.com, I should be better for me to push myself to be a learner by reading books instead of youtube.com videos. For now, it is ok since I just started my personal finance research in a year. My topic is to read 20 investing books in next two months.

Too ambitious

It is impossible for me to read those twenty books related to investing. I only have 8 weekends in two months. I will have a long break around Christmas and new year's time. I will stay most of time inside home office, read and learn personal finance as I did in 2018. I want to be a problem solver, in theory, a person should be able to earn a good living in this capitlism country.

How to read

I also like to find ways for me to learn from all those 20 books. What I can do is to learn the basics from each book, search articles about book review, youtube.com video first.

Practice while reading

I also like to find ideas how to invest high return long term portfolio, like individual stocks. I already have so many experience in my life, I taste best food, national parks, different countries, friends all over the world. I like to live simple life as I am a lonely, broke, and have to work on basics to get food on the table (pretend that I was a broke person). I like to walk more, play more sports, tennis and swimming, and all other activities without paying.

Skiing season is coming. I like to ski without taking more lessons. I like to experience what Vancouver can provide for me.

I like to set up a few portfolios as well. Maybe I will wait bear market first.

Good writing

It is so interesting to read the books. I do find investing book is written so well in English, compared to other books. I do like to know more people living in Canada, and collect more facts for me to use in my own analysis.

Get educated first

I do think that it is important for me to set a target, spend 500 hours to learn how to invest, understand the basics, and then I start to invest.

I also think about working hard, pushing myself to advance my knowledge, and meet more expert in the area. Life is so interesting when I start to work and learn personal finance.

I no longer have impulsive shopping behavior, even though I like to purchase a GPS last month, I noticed that smart people just use smart phone and download offline maps.

Comparing to my behavior in 2001, I am much confident on self-learner. I like to read and watch youtube.com, hunt for good content.
