Codie Sanchez recommends three books: How to Get Rich for building wealth, The Triumph of Experience on the Harvard Grant Study finding that relationships drive happiness and longevity, and The E-Myth on designing businesses as machines so owners aren't trapped in the work.
Chapters
If you were to tell a young person right now here are the books to live a rich and happy life how to Get Rich is a phenomenal book because it shows a guy who really has nothing getting really wealthy and how he did it the Triumph of Experience which is about the Harvard Grant Study 500 Men from Harvard very successful wealthy families and then they took 500 kids in Boston who were underprivileged and they followed them for their entire lives the biggest finding is really ultimately happiness is derived from relationships from friends, family investing in that is the one thing that seems to derive life satisfaction longevity and all sorts of measurements of happiness and marriages and other stuff when it comes to business I really like the emyth it does drive home that idea of a business being a machine I don't need to do all this work I can just be the engineer and I can tinker and build all the widgets and then just feed the raw materials in and have money come out.
