Long hailed as an inspirational classic in the personal finance space, The Richest Man in Babylon imparts ancient wisdom regarding wealth management and financial wellness.

Written after the stock market crash of 1929 and set in ancient Babylon, this collection of simple parables has made a huge impact on the way millions of people have approached wealth building. Though the stories are ancient, the wisdom is timeless--including principles of financial planning, frugal living, and wise investing.

Including a foreword by BiggerPockets Podcast and BiggerPockets Money Podcast hosts David Greene and Mindy Jensen, this unaltered version of the original text maintains its integrity as one of the greatest financial literacy books of all time. In the words of author George S. Clason, "Money is plentiful for those who understand the simple laws which govern its acquisition..." and those simple laws can be uncovered in this enduring classic.

About the Authors

George Samuel Clason was born in Louisiana, Missouri, on November 7, 1874. He attended the University of Nebraska and served in the United States Army during the Spanish-American War. Beginning a long career in publishing, he founded the Clason Map Company of Denver, Colorado, and published the first road atlas of the United States and Canada.

In 1926, he issued the first of a famous series of pamphlets on thrift and financial success, using parables set in ancient Babylon to make each of his points. These were distributed in large quantities by banks and insurance companies and became familiar to millions, the most famous being "The Richest Man in Babylon," the parable from which the present volume takes its title. These "Babylonian parables" have become a modern inspirational classic.
