One more book suggestion; simply got done checking
out \The Snowball\"-- the licensed bio

For a book that throws every \typical\" investing strategy under the bus, I suggest a book that just came out just recently
called \"Killing Sacred Cows.\" Written by up-and-coming
financial expert Garret Gunderson, who was a multi-millionaire at 26 (so he
actually practices what he preaches). 401(k), not a smart idea according to Garrett.
Instead, find your distinct ability and what you're enthusiastic about and
go from there ... I like it.LikeLike

Bengaluru, Mar 5: At 11 am on Friday, Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa will present the State Budget for the 2020-2021 fiscal. Coming at a time when the state is facing financial challenges, the budget is expected to have minor tax shocks for citizens, while making space for big-ticket allocations to the agriculture and water resources ministries. Thursday's budget will be Yediyurappa’s seventh.

“Agriculture is our primary focus. The recent gazette notification of the Mahadayi tribunal order is a welcome move for Karnataka and we will make budgetary allocations for this too,” the CM had said.

The cut back in devolution of funds for Karnataka from the divisible pool, trimming of funds from the Union Government for Centrally-sponsored schemes and tax collections falling short of revenue targets have made matters tough for Yediyurappa. The consolation may be the part payment of one installment of GST compensation from the Centre. The GST compensation, in part for the October-November period, was released to the state in time for tabling of the budget.
