The Intelligent Investor.

Hi everyone,

I am an australian resident and have decided to diversify my asset portfolio by buying shares/stocks. So to begin I have just finished reading ‘rich dad poor dad’ and recently got recommended “the intelligent investor”, however, i am struggling with some of the concepts and wording personally to me its a little advanced . Does anyone have any suggestions on what to read prior to beginning “the intelligent investor” or books the explore the market in a simpler way?

Thanks
