Financial books give away (free)

I am trying to clean up my closets, so a bunch of books that are/were related to my life in finance have to make room for other stuff. All of this is free for the taking if you want to pick it up yourself or arrange it with someone from here to ship it to you. The offer expires in a week or so unless you PM me, I am going to throw these out.

Here is a list of titles and authors, you can search on the Amazon for the details:
Inflation Linked Products, Benaben
Structured Equity Derivatives, Kat
Dynamic Hedging, Taleb
Handbook for Fixed Income Securities, Fabozzi
Monte Carlo Methods in Finance, Jackel
A foreign exchange primer, Shama
The Treasury Bond Basis, Burghard and Belton
Advance Financial Modelling using Excel and VBA, Jackson and Staunton
Colateralized Debt Obligations, Tavakoli
Baron's Dictionary of Finance and Investment Terms
When Genius Failed, Lowenstein
Economics, Wessels
Learning Perl, Schwartz
Writing Excel Macros, Roman
The Great Wave, Fischer
Traders Guns and Money, Das
The Bell Curve, Herrenstein and Murray

 

Can you send them to me,to Antarctic?

 

I bet you made zillions after reading them.

 

Well, I have made a lot of money over the years in this business and yes, I have read these books. However, as we all know, correlation does not equal causality.

PS. I think the last book in the list is exactly about people like yourself.

 

But , since you aren't selling them , ill take your word for it.

 

I have most of those books. All look pretty good to me. If anyone lives in the NY area you should pick them up.

 

Some books have been spoken for, however, "should the mission fail" they will be back here. The residual list is:

Inflation Linked Products, Benaben
A foreign exchange primer, Shama
Colateralized Debt Obligations, Tavakoli
Baron's Dictionary of Finance and Investment Terms (haha)
Economics, Wessels
Learning Perl, Schwartz
Writing Excel Macros, Roman
The Great Wave, Fischer
The Bell Curve, Herrenstein and Murray (you really need it if you work for a bank)


Btw, I highly recommend the Great Wave, one of the best macro books about inflation that I have ever read.

 

Don't mean to sidetrack, but over Thanksgiving I was told to read Dying of Money, supposed to be a particularly good book on a similar topic.

http://www.amazon.com/Dying-Money-Jens-Parsson/dp/1457502666

 

looks interesting.

I feel like such a sleuth (went through plenty of dead links, etc) the book is online for free.

 

you must be joking. it took me less than 30 seconds to find it.
