Have you ever read "Five People You Meet in Heaven" by Mitch Albom? Unless you are cold and turned off completely it would be hard to read this book and not think. It makes you think wonder, and even though it is a fictional story you can not help but look at your own life and the lives of others around you differently.

I know, I am amazed that it is not in the inspirational section. I also after seeing this question want to read this again.

Good book for beginners, but stay away from "Rich Dad's Guide to investing." It is extremely vague and unhelpful. He's way out of his element there.

Oh yeah, "Atlas Schrugged" by Ayn Rand. If you believe communism and socialism have merit, you won't like it. But if you're a fan of good old capitalism, give it a read. It's a good one, even for its monstrous number of pages. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have been rumored to show interest in the making of the movie, but Angelina in the role of Dagny? Give me a break (politically speaking, that is). Oh, yeah. Did anybody else who read Atlas Shrugged pick up a "Dagny is mysterious, Dagny is the perfect woman, all men love Dagny, Dagny is based on me" vibe from the author?

Nobody said the Bible? I tried to read it, but it was so long and I couldn't make any sense out of it. But hundreds of millions can't be wrong...could they?

"The Alchemist" by someone whose name I've forgotten. It's fiction, about a spanish shepherd boy who decides to chase his dreams, which include finding riches at the Egyptian Pyramids. He takes a rather circuitous route to get there, and the journey takes him many years, but basically the book says that when one chases his dream, the universe opens up a path for him. The way is made easy, and all things come together to help one on the journey.
