We have heard, again and again, the critical importance of putting aside a share of our income for investment.
There are a lot of ways to build wealth, but there is a simple, sure way that can always work. It is simply to develop the habit from a young age of saving a share of your income, say 10%. Paying this amount to your investment account must become the same as paying your monthly rent or mortgage payment.
Developing the habit of saving money should be developed the same as the habits of bathing, washing hands before a meal, or shaving.
These are the lessons that George S. Clason drives home again and again in the parables of The Richest Man In Babylon.
Read by millions, this timeless book holds the key to success-in the secrets of the ancients. Based on the famous “Babylonian principles,” it’s been hailed as the greatest of all inspirational works on the subject of thrift and financial planning.
