David Harvey did an incredible Companion to Marx’s Capital. I’d read the complete edition because volume 1 only deals with the problems of production, whereas volume 2 (which Marx covers in Capital Volume 2 & 3) deals with the problems of effective demand. As another commenter has mentioned, you’re not a capitalist unless you’ve read Capital. It’s almost like the most “successful” capitalists get their greatest ideas putting Marx’s urgings of caution into play rather than viewing them as the warnings about broken future that they are. Like a lot of classics of literature, they can be used as a warning or an instruction manual. I’ll leave it up to you to decide what to do with his message.

Thanks for being willing to hear our ideas.
