Next book on my reading list

I don't know man. I have a pretty big collection. I probably read a book a week. If you do better then that, I'm impressed. If you like to read, pick up a copy of "Ugly Americans" and let's discuss.

A book a week is very solid reading, good work. Pardon the cockiness in the previous post.
Not that I want to "impress" you or anything, but most weeks I will knock off about three books and make starts on maybe four or five others that I give up on because something else has grabbed my attention. Reading is probably my favorite way of spending leisure time and I sometimes struggle to leave room for other activities. Right now I've got a lot of spare time so it's not uncommon that I spend the majority of the day reading some book or another.
I took a look at "Ugly Americans" on Amazon and it seems to be taking a bit of a bashing. My first impressions were that it's a bit too overtly sensational but I'll probably still check it out. Seems it's not available as an ebook so I'll have to wait to read it. (I'm in Macedonia (Republic) at the moment so I can't just pop down to Borders or the library; I can only get new books as ebooks, or older titles on Gutenberg.)
You take the speed reading course I told ya about and you will be doing 1 a day. Last I clocked it i'm up to 900wpm. It's perfect for the type of reading you do. I on the other hand read my classic literature than non-fiction so its not always in my best interest to speed read through Dostoyevsky or Proust...
Yeah, ignore the bashers on Amazon. I think a lot of people were expecting to read more about the techniques and strategies used rather then the story behind it. I think there is a reason why these guys don't want to go through detail by detail how they trade. What were these readers expecting? I can see how a lot of readers, certainly young people would get bored by the Japanese culture lessons but oh well. This is certainly not a how to book but rather the story of how one trader made it. And an interesting story at that. No discussions of moving averages though, or RSI readings. I know this might let a lot of people down. LOL.
