Using the few remarks he makes about himself as a brief picture of his character, we will, in the questions which follow, bring to the surface those things within himself which were retarding his success.

A shorter book using fictional stories from the ancient kingdom of Babylon.

The principles in this book are good, but not really new for me, so I didn’t find the book as helpful.

Also, the old English some of the characters in the stories use makes it less enjoyable to read. So for me personally, this book was fine but not great.

6.5/10

This may be ignorant to say, but I felt like a lot of this was common sense. Like yes, if you save a little every pay check and then invest it. Eventually, you will reach a point where you are not just rich, but wealthy. On the other hand, I did enjoy some of the stories in the book, specifically the ones at the end. It was overall pretty boring and I just wanted it to be over. 😭

This is well-guided book for those who wants to start from zero at any stage of life to build wealth for self & loved ones.

For building wealth there's simple rules that one has to follow strictly no matter what the circumstances. Good book for managing & building personal finance.
