Guest on ChooseFI · 4 books · 2 episodes across 1 podcast

Cody Garrett is a financial professional who has appeared on the ChooseFI podcast to discuss wealth management, investing mistakes, and the psychological relationship people have with money. Throughout his podcast appearances, Cody Garrett has recommended and discussed several notable books. He recommended Annie Duke's book Thinking in Bets to illustrate the principle that actions cannot be judged solely by their final outputs, given that individuals ultimately cannot control external outcomes. In discussions regarding the true worth of time and lifestyle choices, Garrett mentioned Vicky Robin's book Your Money or Your Life, using it to evaluate whether the hassle of chasing high-yield savings accounts is genuinely worthwhile. Additionally, Cody Garrett referenced the author of The Psychology of Money to share a pragmatic anecdote about running small personal experiments with luxury purchases, and he discussed Bill Perkins's book Die with Zero in the context of intentional spending and the value of distributing financial resources earlier in life rather than leaving them strictly as a delayed inheritance.
