What's The Best Personal Finance Book?

Personal finance can be a pretty daunting topic. Saving, budgeting, investing—it seems easy, but if it were, everyone would do it and no one would struggle with finances. This week, we want to make it easier, with some good books to read on the topic. Which ones do you think are the best?

Making the most of your money, paying down your debt, living frugally, and finding ways to make more money and increase your cash flow are all hot topics—but the good books show you how to do it and do it well, without dangling miracle fixes in front of you. This week we want to hear which books you think are the definitive reads on personal finance. Sound off in the comments!
