Yes, the R word...People think retirement is going to kill them off in 2 months...Small minded.

So, the business? We own a hair and beauty salon. I don't work there of course, I have a corporate job. My wife does though. Seems to go well.

The three books are (two of them are sitting on top of my piano waiting for me to get to them:

De Re Militari (Concerning Military Affairs), written in the 5th century by Vegetius and translated from the original Latin

The Count of Monte Cristo - Alexander Dumas

The Odyssey - Homer

To be honest I should have read all of these by now however they are three I just haven't ever gotten around to. Will be rectified soon.

Now, your three...
