Library

Books that changed
my thinking.

01 — Peter Thiel

Zero to One

Key takeaway

Don't compete. Create something unique. The best businesses build monopolies through genuine innovation, not competition.

02 — Robert Kiyosaki

Rich Dad Poor Dad

Key takeaway

Build assets. Don't only earn income. The wealthy work to acquire things that generate money — not just a salary.

03 — Morgan Housel

The Psychology of Money

Key takeaway

Money is more about behavior than intelligence. Doing well financially has little to do with IQ and everything to do with how you act.
