A
great gift.

Review
"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."

Just
Read It!, May 3,
2009
If this was required reading
in Middle School, perhaps the US and the world wouldn't be
in the financial mess we're in today. Basic common sense
rules for managing money are espoused in this book. The
problem is that common sense is becoming increasingly
uncommon. I gave this short book to someone who was going
into the hospital to read there, knowing they would have
time to kill. That they didn't read it was enlightening.
People are ignorant about money because they choose to be.
Don't be ignorant, read this book!
POWERFUL, VERY POWERFUL
BOOK!
I am continually amazed at
how a book so small can contain so much content and be so
powerful. This book should be mandatory reading beginning
at the grade school level through college and should be
given as a gift right along with a diploma.
An Old Book with a Fair Amount of
Wisdom, November 8, 2001
I often give this book out as
a gift whenever a person younger than me asks for my advice
on money. I always present this book to them saying "if you
read it and do as it says, it will work magic." It really
contains excellent, time tested advice, and would make a
good gift for someone in their early 20s who is on their
own for the first time, and struggling.
Definitely a must read for
everyone., March 4, 2000
When I started in sales 15
years ago, a very good friend of mine turned me on on the mind
books. This was one of three he recommended and he was very
successful.The other books were Think and Grow Rich and Success
through a Positive Mental Attitude. The principles in Richest
Man in Bablyon are timeless. Remember, you can live off your
income, but you can't get wealthy off your income. You only get
wealthy by investing and Richest Man in Bablyon teaches that
all important step of investing.Two other books to read in the
area of personal finance are Wealth without Risk and Financial
Self Defense by Charles Givens. These books will show you how
to save more on what you make.
