This book by Arthur T. Vanderbilt II came up once on Tim Ferriss in the episodes we index. That mention was a genuine on-air recommendation, not just a passing reference. The people who brought it up: Morgan Housel. Every occurrence below links to the episode page and to the exact second it was said on YouTube.
“there's a great book that I read a couple years ago and I reread it last year it's one of my favorite books it's called Fortune's children and it's about how the Vanderbilt heirs spent their money”— Morgan Housel
