What Do You Read?

Hi there,

Whilst my question isn't strictly BA related, I do wish to ask for some advice from the FlyerTalk BA community.

My profession is teaching (maths), however I have a great interest in finance, current events, global markets, economy etc. En route to Chicago, when I was in the CCR at the beginning of July, I picked up a copy of MoneyWeek. Wish, I sort of enjoy although felt a little out my depth, although I was able to sort of pick up some of it. I also got a copy of Fortune magazine which I liked.

I know a lot of people in this forum will be business travelers with an interest in keeping up to date with financial markets and current events and I was wondering what you recommend? I would like some inspiration as all I do is read BBC News. My hobbies would be as stated above, plus travelling. I'd happily sit and watch a 90 minute documentary about the global financial crisis of 2007/2008, finding it fascinating (embarrassing to admit!).

My hotel in Chicago had complementary copies of the Wall Street Journal - which again, I liked.

I don't invest at all, I have some savings so maybe would like to dabble with small quantities in the future, but I am not looking necessary for a guide on how to invest.

I have done a bit of research and have came up with a list. Your thoughts? Thank you!

Lonely Planet
The Economist
MoneyWeek
Wall Street Journal
Time
Bloomberg Businessweek
Conde Nast Traveler
The New York Times
A UK Newspaper (Which is best... Th Guardian, The Times... The Independent?).
