My favorite recently was probably American Gods. Also really enjoyed Dog Stars. These don’t have anything to do with management but honestly if after working all week at consulting you want to go home and read “Getting to Yes” there is something deeply wrong with you

Thoughts on Wealth Management as an industry? Offered a role to work under a senior FA and eventually take over the book (~$800M AUM and growing). It sounds great, but I am worried about the disruption this industry is facing with Robo advisors and other low cost, DIY options. I’d want to make sure the clients stay through the transition, and I don’t want to join a dying industry. Thoughts and advice?
