The Richest Man in Babylon | George S. Clason


The richest man in Babylon is a pragmatic account of financial advice told through parables and stories from ancient Babylon. The Book is a classic, and demonstrates the power and wealth generation available when you begin saving a part of your income, investing it wisely and protecting it. Clason echoes the virtues of lending money instead of borrowing it, and the dangers of personal debt

One of the biggest themes throughout The Richest Man in Babylon is the simple act of living below your means. By living below your means, you are able to generate surplus wealth which can be multiplied with prudent investing. You also avoid the stress and wealth destruction which comes with taking on personal or non productive debts. The Richest Man in Babylon also talks about the importance of hard work and persistence, in order to’swing the odds in your favour’.

This is a very quick read, and an absolute must read on the path to Financial Independence. It also makes a great gift for someone who maybe hasn’t quite got their shit sorted yet.
