    So I’m a junior in college studying finance. I’m going into investment banking and love learning. I grew up reading for hours everyday and honestly I feel like it’s given me such an appreciation for prose, beautiful language and high quality literature. But as I’ve gotten older I find myself confined to reading the wall street journal and listening to podcasts in my free time. In school it’s just math. AND as little as I have read, I feel like nobody around me has read anything AT ALL! Our attention spans are terrible thanks to social media.

    I want to be more efficient with my free time. I just feel like there is so much beautiful literature out there and I don’t know where to look for it. I want to fill my free time reading things that will deepen my understanding of life and philosophy, give me a greater appreciation for the human condition and overall make me a deeper, more cultured person. Please recommend me what I’m missing!!

    Side note: I do love finance so any books about banking and markets etc, are also welcome. I also speak Ukrainian and Russian so any literature in those languages is also great. I’m just done scrolling on IG.
