Book Review #8: The Richest Man in Babylon by George S. Clason

Review written by Alex E. Kheyson

If you want to know how to make and keep money then this book is a must. Before I ready The Richest Man in Babylon by George S. Clason for the first time, I’ve heard about this books from virtually everyone who shares the passion for personal development, growth, entrepreneurship, and financial success. At first I thought that it would be difficult to relate and obtain useful information that can be applied today when it comes to money management and practice of creating wealth based on money practices described in this book, however, after reading few pages, I’ve realized that money creation and growth practices are as applicable in today’s world as they were at the time of Babylon.

Here are few key points/questions that are covered in this awesome book:

• Three laws to successfully handle wealth
• The importance of being prepared for opportunities that present themselves to us over time
• Energy expansion in relation to growth of wealth
• How to make your money work for you
• “Seven cures for lean purse” – Ways to improve your financial situation using seven key principles
• What is procrastination and how it impacts our ability to create, retain, and invest money
• Five laws of money
• Ways to payoff your debt while growing personal savings

This book is an awesome collection of very engaging, easy to follow, and relevant stories that take you back in time of Babylon, bringing the lives of many successful and wealthy merchants to life, while teaching very important lessons and laws of money that where relevant then as well as today. Once you read this book once, you would want to read it again and again.
