“Chuck Schwab provides an engaging look into the investing world, balanced between his penchant for risk-taking with his grace and humility. He crafts a creative and highly rewarding story of not just Charles Schwab, the company, but Charles Schwab, the person. There are life lessons in this book for everyone, from Wall Street to Main Street.â€Â—Condoleezza Rice, former U.S. Secretary of State and Denning Professor in Global Business and the Economy at the Stanford Graduate School of Business“By turns practical and personally insightful, Charles Schwab’s indefatigable spirit, sound judgement, and entrepreneurial experience shine through in Invested. Throughout his childhood and career, Chuck overcame challenges and set a standard of leadership and innovation throughout decades of change in our U.S. economic system.â€Â—Jamie Dimon, chairman and CEO, JPMorgan Chase “Like myself, Chuck is a dyslexic. He learned early on that he had his limits and therefore—unlike most nondyslexics—discovered the power of delegation.

His memoir is a textbook case on entrepreneurship and principled leadership.â€Â—Hank Paulson, 74th Secretary of the Treasury “Through Chuck’s unique perspective, Invested details Schwab’s history as they persevered through adversity while providing wisdom and encouragement along the way. I have admired and respected Chuck for many years. We share a passion for golf and how its challenges parallel those encountered in business.â€Â—Phil Mickelson “Chuck tells a story that very few can tell. It is a story of creativity, passion, and bravery trumping the odds. Chuck not only created the discount brokerage industry but grew a company in the face of market cycles and a rapidly changing and consolidating landscape. Chuck led the way in democratizing the market for the individual investor. I am proud to have been a partner with Chuck in the early days. I am especially proud to have him as a friend for the past fifty years.â€Â—George R. Roberts, co-chairman and co-CEO, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts “We learn best from the stories of others, and you’ll be hard pressed to find one so interesting, inspiring, and educational as this one! An enriching read from a great and principled man.â€Â—Steve Forbes, chairman and editor inchief, Forb
