The richest man in Babylon

I have just finished reading "The Richest Man in Babylon" and I gotta admit that this books has pretty basic and vital lesson about money. I have read couple of finance book before but this one is something different and amusing. I recommend this book this in my list of great books I have read.

It's a good book for those in business, or who own their own business. Just keep reading, you'll be able to take some valuable lessons away from it. Namaste-Anora

I have no idea; sounds like an interesting book. DO you like to read. I LOVE TO read sometimes, and I want to keep reading some interesting facts.

Hi, I read through twice, it's a great book. This book is not meant as a novel or storybook, it is an investment book written as a story. There are a few lessons I learnt: a. Pay yourself first (the only way to be rich is to spend lesser than you earn) b. Money generates money (like the concept of the "children" of money, if we eat the children of money as in we used up all the interest or dividends, there will not be any more grandchildren) c. Trust the right person (some people never learnt this, they seek financial advice from their colleagues and friends who are as poor as they are) I like the positive thinking of this book, that a slave (which is what many salaried employees are) can be the richest person.
