Hey guys,

So I say this all the time: I want to work on Wall St. What does the job actually entail? My understanding about the whole finance thing goes as far as what I’ve read on CC and WSO. So I’m trying to pick an introductory book about finance/investment in general to have a firm grasp on the subject (in addition to my knowledge gained from my AP Econ class) so that I can decide if Wall St. is actually for me.

Does anyone have any suggestions about what are considered the broad and introductory (and preferably not overly mathy/boring) books in finance? Based on my research, The Intelligent Investor seems like a good place to start. Any other suggestions?
