Hey guys,

Its been awhile since ive been on here, good to be back. So im a sophomore in college (19 yrs old), finance and entrepreneurship major. My ideal career would be to have my own financial firm, investments, planning etc. I want to get my CFA and CFP in the future.

But right now, I dont have a whole lot of experience in finance or investing as my major specific classes in school havent really ramped up yet. So im looking for book recommendations for someone who is wanting to get into stock, hedge fund, options investments and all that good stuff. I have some basic knowledge but not a whole lot, so I want a book that will teach me the terminology and all that good stuff like P/E ratio, volume, cap, beta, etc.

Any recommendations??

Thanks
Jake
