The Richest Man in Babylon by George S. Clason (2001, Paperback, Reissue)

When I started my first job my father gave me a copy of this book, his father gave him a copy. Now my son has started his first job and I am continuing the tradition. I don't have a lot of time to go shopping so finding it on eBay was great for me, within a few days it was delivered directly to me.

This thin book is a MUST for anyone's library. There are seven rules to money and all of the other books on money spin off from this one! This book has a very good concept, that says you can work ANY job and become rich!

I had a question I asked myself as a kid. That was. "How come I am seeing so many hard workers and yet they are dieing broke?" Well this book answers that question and much more.

If I am ever lucky enough to have kids, then they are getting a copy of this book every year until I boot them out of the house.

This is the only book that I offerred to pay a 22 y/o with 4 kids to read.

TO REPEAT:

EXCELLENT is not a high enough rating!!!!

Thanks

I bought this book and read it when it was reccommended to someone on a radio show I was listening to. I was not expecting to be so blown away with so many concepts that hit the nail on the head for issues that we face every day. This is a timeless life changing book that everyone should read, understand, and apply.

I only wish I read this book 20 years ago great lesson on how to start your financial life. I recommend to anyone at all ages a great book to give any young person.

This is one of those books that they should teach in school and do not. The basic foundation of personal financial stability. This should be a requirement for adults, young and old, need to read. I had borrowed a copy from a friend and needed a copy of my own. My kids will read this book!

The Richest Man in Babylon is one of the greatest books ever written on obtaining wealth. It teaches basic rules of acquiring wealth and how to exercise. It does not teach how to get rich quick, but practical fundamentals in the process thereof. If ever you were looking for a self help book to help dig yourself out of poverty and put you on the road to financial freedom this book should be in your library.

I devoured this book within just a few days of reading. It's a great book, highly recommended to all. Literally EVERYONE should read this book!! This book will share how anyone, regardless of current situation can get ahead and thrive. The stories within it are easy to relate to, and will help you see how you too can take charge of your financial freedom regardless of your current circumstances. If you don't read this book, then you're missing out big time. Have a great day! :)

I'm not a big reader, but the author did a great job at capturing the reader within the first few pages. Even though it's a simple read, you can take a lot from this book and apply it to your everyday finances.

I highly recommend this book as a 'must' for everyone to get inspired to do more, be more and have more... Success is within you if you just search your soul

An excellent book for anybody who wants to learn the basics about saving and spending money. You won't be wealthy unless you have mastered the practices explained in this book. It is truely amazing that the people who created the first system of currency actually mastered it as well.

The book is a classic. Still revelent today as it was when written. IF, and
that's a big IF it were followed more people would be successful, live less stressful lives. It's the back to the basic book, one that never grows old.
Great book, quick read,great lessons.

This is the most amazing book I have ever read, it has the master key to financial success and for the best things in life, highly recommended.

Love how this book is written in a sort of old english style. After reading i felt like talking like the old babylonians did. Great book a must read!!!

I don't know, becouse I have never recieved my book from bestsellerbooksdirect.com. I purchased the book on August the 12th of 2006 and still have not received my book and it is now November the 10th.

It exceeds all one's expectations. This is no regular book on managing money better. No! Somehow by practicing it's simple prescriptions (behaviors) it cranks up your subconscious mental powers to begin attracting money and prosperity and the peace of mind that goes with it (where at least in my case constant paycheck to paycheck often nightmare stress used to be the SOP). "Coincidences" soon begin to happen to you regularly where money just drops in your lap that never used to happen before, over and over, that blows your mind. But you don't rely on coincidences, your financial situation begins to get solid. That was my experience. But there is a catch, it's not enough to just read it, you need to practice what it says you need to do (but the good news is that isn't hard).

Freakin rad book dude. It is an amazing book that contains the cure to the common ailments of life, which is a lack of money. Through this book you will love money and no how to acquire it. You will get out of debt and life will be blissful.

If you are concerned with your financial situation, confused about what to do next, and searching for a way to turn your life around, this book gives comfort offers clear advice, and charts the course to a life of rich reward.

There is no financial debt so great that it cannot be repaid, no depth of poverty that you cannot rise above, and no limit to the wealth you can create for yourself and those you love.

This is the best book ever written on the subjects of debt relief and wealth accumulation.
