Summary

Denis Waitley narrates the classic book written by George S. Claison in 1926, which offers financial advice through a collection of parables set in ancient Babylon. Through their experiences in business and managing their personal affairs, the characters in the parables learn simple lessons in financial wisdom, as relevant in the 21st century as they were in antiquity.

As a result of this book, the use of parables to impart timeless wisdom that can be applied to present-day challenges in living successfully became popular, as evidenced by global best sellers The Greatest Salesman in the World, The One-Minute Manager, and other recent self-help books.

A recognized pioneer in the personal development movement, Denis Waitley is one of the most respected and listened-to voices on high-performance achievement. The author of 18 nonfiction books, his audio album The Psychology of Winning is the all-time best-selling program on self-mastery. The Richest Man in Babylon, according to narrator Denis Waitley, greatly influenced his understanding of the cornerstones upon which to build financial security. A banquet of priceless knowledge on capital accumulation, both philosophical and practical.

Powerful book

Powerful book, should be read every few months. This book is packed with wealth-building nuggets that will keep you busy. Its allegorical form is deeply entertaining and captivating, all whilst conveying invaluable money principles.

Simple and effective!

Such a pleasure to listen to, both content and performance. Listened several times over and each time more clarity and detail emerge. My purse is no longer lean for sure and I haven't even ticked off all of the 7 cures as yet. I am debt free, have silver to jingle (more than my 6months pay), a herb plot (allotment), saved enough deposit for house, and have invested a lot of time researching financial market investments and am vetting fund managers to decide a suitable fit, to initiate my long term dollar cost averaging plan into an index EFT! All inspired by this book. Wish I read it earlier !!
