Description
“The Richest Man in Babylon” by George S. Clason is a timeless guide to financial understanding, using parables set in ancient Babylon to illustrate the basic principles of acquiring, keeping, and growing wealth. The book emphasizes that personal financial prosperity is the foundation of a nation's prosperity, and that success is achieved through one's own efforts and abilities with proper preparation. The wisdom of Babylon, a city known for its immense wealth, has been preserved for us through clay tablets, which were used much like modern forms of writing. These tablets provide insights into the personal affairs of the people, revealing that the laws governing money were the same six thousand years ago as they are today.
