Chip’s the boss
5By OzielmnzSincerely one of the best books I’ve ever read, Chip, I never thought I would find a book like yours, with so many inspirational moments, thanks for this book my amigo, keep it up!Awesome book.

5By Jill A BurchCaptivating and inspiring way to view the world around us. I loved Chips views on life, people, relationships and hard work.Not what I expected
1By Misleaded buyerThe title is very misleading and is centered on Chip’s “bar talk” experiences. I honestly think this is a book for entertainment purposes and NOT one that will add value to someone looking for entrepreneurial, business or real estate advice.Great Read!
5By BenmhodgeLove this book!Get a glimpse of the genius
5By erinbusbeeInspiring story, and a little shocking at how Chip and Jo became sensations. He's certainly a workaholic, but also a fierce family man who wants to take life by the horns and help those around him do the same. Definitely a good read for those who need some perspective on what it's all about...Not what I expected.....
2By stepwillI guess I was expecting an autobiography, or a “how we turned Magnolia into a successful company” treatise. While it’s clear that Chip is driven by a passion to succeed, I found the book a bit too self-centered and self-serving. So not a good read, at least for me.Capital Gaines
