The Richest Man In Babylon - George S.Clason

Once upon a time in babylon lived the richest man in the world, arkad. the fame of his wealth spread throughout the world. he was also famous for his generosity. he was generous in his assistance. he was generous to his family. he was generous in his own spending. yet his wealth would grow faster with each passing year than he spent. “today,” said kobbi, “i ran into our old friend arkad, driving in his gold-plated car. he did not ignore me with the behavior expected of people like him. on the contrary, he waved for all to see, smiled at me, at kobbi the musician.” “they say he's the richest man in babylon,” bansir said absently. “so rich that i heard you borrowed gold from him when the king's treasury was in trouble,” kobbi replied. one day, kobbi and bansir, friends from his youth days, came along and said, “you arkad,” “you have been luckier than any of us. you became the richest man in babylon while we struggled to stay afloat. you can wear the most beautiful clothes and eat the rarest foods, but we are happy if we can dress our families in decent clothes and feed them. “but we were equal once. we took lessons from the same teacher. we played the same games. you were not superior to us in lessons or games. “as far as we can see, you worked neither more faithfully nor harder than we did. so why did the bitch fate choose you to enjoy all the good things in the world and ignore us who deserve it as much as you do?” then arkad gave them a long speech: "if you haven't achieved anything beyond a bare existence since our youthful days, it's either because you haven't learned the laws of getting rich or you haven't followed them." “i'll tell you what you want to know, because i'm an old man now and old people like to chat. it is the wisdom of past years that is given to youth when they are old enough to take counsel. but often youth thinks that old age only knows the wisdom of past days, and cannot use it for him. but remember, the sun that shines today is the same sun that shone the day your father was born, and it will still be shining when your last grandchild leaves this world.” number of pages: 152. more than 100 stocks have been offered to be sold at the campaign price. the listed price is valid until october 16, 2026.
