💰Maybe let’s not recommend books for rich people
JP Morgan has been curating a list of summer reading recommendations for wealthy individuals for 27 years. This year's selection includes a mix of books, some of which seem oddly chosen, such as a book of lemon-centered recipes. The article expresses skepticism about the relevance of these recommendations to the intended audience.
