The Great Depression: A Diary
Benjamin Roth
There is a lawyer named Benjamin Roth who in the 1930s kept a very detailed diary during the Great Depression. He just wrote about what his neighbors were going through, how many businesses were going bankrupt...I think it was unintentionally the best economics book ever written.

Will
Will Smith
Will Smith writes in his biography that: - Becoming famous is amazing. - Being famous is a mixed bag. - Losing any amount of fame is miserable. Same with money. I think for a lot of people the process of becoming wealthier feels better than having wealth.
