Recommended Books
I read a lot. I mean, A LOT.
Over the years, books have played a huge role in how I’ve approached money, career, business, and most importantly, parenthood. The books below are ones I’ve personally read and found genuinely helpful along the way.
I believe reading has the power to open doors you didn’t even know existed. Sometimes the right book gives you an idea, a different perspective, or an answer to a question you didn’t even know you needed to ask.
I hope you find something here that does the same for you.

Another “back-pocket” book. This book will get you in the right frame of mind to build wealth.

I call this a “back-pocket book” because it’s intentionally short and can fit in your back-pocket.

Looking for a book about something specific? There’s a pretty good chance I’ve read one.
I tend to have several books going at once. My brain apparently prefers running multiple tabs at the same time, so if you’re looking for a recommendation on parenting, money, career, business, or just about anything else, don’t be shy.
Drop me a note at skip@knockedupmoney.com. I’m always happy to recommend a good read.
