About this listen
“National Best-seller—New York Times, USA Today, Publisher’s Weekly, Wall Street Journal”
The funny and talented Chip Gaines is well known to millions of people as a TV star, renovation expert, bestselling author, husband to Joanna, and father of four in Waco, Texas. But long before the world took notice, Chip was a serial entrepreneur who was always ready for the next challenge, even if it didn’t quite work out as planned. Whether it was buying a neighborhood laundromat or talking a bank into a loan for some equipment to start a lawn-mowing service, Chip always knew that the most important thing was to take that first step.
Now a #1 New York Times bestselling book, Capital Gaines offers readers a ringside seat as Chip relives some of his craziest antics and the lessons learned along the way. His mentors taught him to never give up and his family showed him what it meant to always have a positive attitude despite your circumstances. Throw in a natural daredevil personality and a willingness to do (or eat!) just about anything, and you have the life and daily activity of Chip Gaines.
Capital Gaines is the perfect book for anyone looking to succeed not only in business but more importantly in life.

Excellent!
He seems funny, so you may not think seriously about things, but he is actually a deep guy! Very good couple, I like thir achievements and admire the fact that they are very humble!

Fantastic, interesting and well written!
Thoroughly enjoyed this book. The story from Chip Gaines is so real and authentic it feels like I now know him as a friend...maybe I’ll still call him up and see if we can work on something together!

Just as heartwarming as I had hoped
Great insight to the life beyond the lense of reality TV. As always, inspiring and heartfelt, perfectly imperfect and true to character. Love watching the hard work in your "work" but mostly love learning that you live your life as we all expect- with optimism in your heart, and that heart on your sleeve. A great listen, and a nice reminder to "Get after it!"
