JPMorgan Releases Summer Book List for Wealthy People
JPMorgan released its annual summer reading list, geared to high-net-worth people who are curious about technology, art, and finding true happiness. For the past 26 years, JPMorgan has released a summer book list that caters to the interests of its high-wealth clientele. This year, a special committee looked at more than 1,000 reading suggestions from JPMorgan's client advisors and came up with their 16-book list. Darin Oduyoye, chief communications officer for JPMorgan Asset and Wealth Management, who also oversees the list, told CNBC that this year's selections were focused "around the power of curiosity." "You can think of it from a reflection standpoint or transformation standpoint," Oduyoye said.

Family office respondents were concerned with finding a balance between growing wealth and doing things that positively impact communities. The list includes Shigehiro Oishi's "Life in Three Dimensions: How Curiosity, Exploration, and Experience Make a Fuller, Better Life," which explores happiness and finding meaning in life (the Wall Street Journal called the author's enthusiasm "infectious"), and Suzy Welch's "Becoming You: The Proven Method for Crafting Your Authentic Life and Career" and its related 13-step plan. The list also includes "Raising AI: An Essential Guide to Parenting Our Future" by De Kai, which explores AI's impact on how we live now (and will live in the future). Here are seven more titles from the list. For the complete summer syllabus, click here.

6 Books the Wealthy Are Reading This Summer
J.P. Morgan recently published its 2025 Summer Reading List. Here's a glimpse at six of the new books that it recommended for summer reading. These aren't your typical beach reads. You won't find any novels with action-packed plots or whodunit mysteries. These are all new releases in the nonfiction category. Check Out: Read Next: Looking through the descriptions of these books, you'll see a trend. The subjects and tones of each of these reads suggests that the rich aren't so much thinking about money as they are their core purposes in life and ways to optimize their relationships and businesses. They're seeking out techniques for living richer in a philosophical and nonmaterial sense. Let's look at six books that might be must-reads. 'Life in Three Dimensions: How Curiosity, Exploration, and Experience Make a Fuller, Better Life' by Shigehiro Oishi, PhD investigates concepts that we both individually and collectively have positioned as North Stars in all aspects of life: 'happiness' and 'meaning.' Oishi explores how these abstractions form 'traps' that inhibit our ability for enrichment — and discusses potentially better ways to frame and achieve a 'good' life. Learn More: 'Becoming You: The Proven Method for Crafting Your Authentic Life and Career' by Suzy Welch is a humorous, poignant and well-researched book that delves deep into core questions such as 'What is my purpose?' and 'What was I born to be?' Based on Welch's popular NYU Stern School of Business class of the same name, 'Becoming You' provides an easy-to-follow 13-part methodology to help readers find their truest selves. Are you having the same arguments with colleagues again and again? Is your business starting to slip into a rut? Do you feel like no matter what you do, you're just not growing or evolving? 'Reset: How to Change What's Not Working' by Dan Heath could be a transformative read for anyone in a leadership position. The book tackles how to reboot your and your team's motivation so that at last you can get things working in a healthy, lasting way. Physical strength will get you far in the gym, but it's mental strength that will get you far in your personal and professional life. In 'Iron Hope: Lessons Learned from Conquering the Impossible', James Lawrence, a self-motivated athlete who completed 50 full-distance triathlons in 50 states in 50 consecutive days, discusses how to commit fully to yourself and build indestructible will power. What's an understanding of one's modern-day raison d'être without serious consideration of the emerging revelation of artificial intelligence and its expanding impact on our lives, both personally and professionally? 'Raising AI: An Essential Guide To Parenting Our Future'' by De Kai tackles the tech movement du jour with a unique approach, perceiving AI technologies not as our overlords but as our children. How do we do right by our nonhuman kids who need us now more than ever? To truly understand our way of being, we must assume an objective perspective — one that considers how people in radically different cultures and societies exist. As its title suggests, 'The Values Compass: What 101 Countries Teach Us About Purpose, Life, and Leadership' by Mandeep Rai explores how people think, build, create and love in places we may have never heard of, let alone visited. The Dalai Lama called this book a demonstration of 'how interconnected we are and how the divisions that exist between us stem from acting with narrow self-interest rather than concern for the good of our human family.'
