The Richest Man In Babylon | AudioBook | Full Length-GEORGE SAMUEL CLASON

GEORGE  SAMUEL  CLASON  was  born  in  Louisiana, Missouri,  on  November  7,  1874.  He
attended  the University  of  Nebraska  and  served  in  the  United  States Army during the SpanishAmerican War. Beginning a long career in publishing, he founded the Clason Map Company of Denver,
Colorado,  and  published  the  first  road  atlas  of the United States and Canada. In 1926, he issued the
first of a  famous  series  of  pamphlets  on  thrift  and  financial success, using parables set in ancient
Babylon to make each of his points. These were distributed  in  large quantities by  banks  and
insurance  companies  and  became  familiar  to millions,  the  most  famous  being  "The  Richest  Man
in Babylon," the parable from which the present volume takes its  title.  These  "Babylonian  parables"
have  become  a modern inspirational classic.

Our  prosperity  as  a  nation  depends  upon  the  personal financial prosperity of each of us as
individuals.
This book deals with  the personal successes of each of us. Success means  accomplishments  as  the
result  of  our  own efforts  and  abilities.  Proper  preparation  is  the  key  to  our success. Our  acts
can  be  no wiser  than  our  thoughts. Our thinking can be no wiser than our understanding.
This book of cures for lean purses has been termed a guide to  financial understanding. That,  indeed, is
its purpose:  to offer  those  who  are  ambitious  for  financial  success  an insight  which  will  aid
them  to  acquire  money,  to  keep money and to make their surpluses earn more money.
In  the pages which  follow, we are  taken back  to Babylon, the  cradle  in  which  was  nurtured  the
basic  principles  of finance now recognized and used the world over.
To new readers the author is happy to extend the wish that its  pages  may  contain  for  them  the  same
inspiration  for growing bank accounts, greater financial successes and the solution  of  difficult
personal  financial  problems  so enthusiastically reported by readers from coast to coast.
To the business executives who have distributed these tales in such generous quantities to friends,
relatives, employees and associates,  the author  takes  this opportunity  to express his gratitude. No
endorsement could be higher  than  that of practical  men  who  appreciate  its  teachings  because  they,
themselves,  have  worked  up  to  important  successes  by applying the very principles it advocates.
Babylon  became  the  wealthiest  city  of  the  ancient  world because  its  citizens were  the  richest
people  of  their  time. They appreciated the value of money. They practiced sound financial  principles
in  acquiring  money,  keeping  money and making  their money earn more money. They provided for
themselves  what  we  all  desire  .  .  .  incomes  for  the future.
