Reviews"I first read The Richest Man in Babylon many years ago. Its philosophy worked for me then, and it will work now for anyone with the good sense to stick to it. I think it ought to be read by every young man or woman with ambition to make something of life."-- Van Allen Bradley, Chicago Daily News "[Clason's] 1926 personal finance classic."-- The Independent (UK) "Recently, several readers asked me for recommendations on books that introduce teenagers--and even pre-teens--to investing... My favorite, and one that I always mention, is The Richest Man in Babylon . Though published nearly 90 years ago, the financial advice dispensed by author George S. Clason will always be relevant to a new generation of readers. Set in ancient Babylon, the characters learn simple lessons about money and investing throughout the collection of short stories."-- Steve Rosen, Chicago Tribune "Full of time-tested advice on saving and investing."-- Michelle Singletary, The Washington Post, Praise for The Richest Man in Babylon "What can a book written in the 1920s tell modern investors about their finances? A whole lot if it's George Clason's delightful set of parables that explain the basics of money. This is a great gift for a graduate or anyone who seems baffled by the world of finance and a wonderful, refreshing read for even the most experienced investor."-- Los Angeles Times "I first read The Richest Man in Babylon many years ago. Its philosophy worked for me then, and it will work now for anyone with the good sense to stick to it. I think it ought to be read by every young man or woman with ambition to make something of life."-- Chicago Daily News "Recently, several readers asked me for recommendations on books that introduce teenagers--and even pre-teens--to investing...

Easy-to-read but with incredibly powerful content!
After being recommended this book by several different people at different times, I decided there was a reason it was so highly praised and so, I ordered a used copy online. I'm a financially proactive individual and this book reinforced a few points I had been taught growing up, as well as taught me some great methods I had never implemented before. The story-like format was easy to follow and humorous in the right places, but with powerful advice and morals that easily apply to any situation of today. If you want to build wealth the most proven & established way, working pretty much any job out there, look no further than the inside of this cover. Besides taking a break to eat, I finished it in one sitting and overall was worth a 100 times more than the measly $4 I spent on it. Looking forward to reading it a 2nd and 3rd time to pick up on anything I may have missed!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
