The fact that it was written around 80 years ago is testament to the sound advice it imparts. I was so inspired by it that I have dedicated 5 years of my life to abiding by Clason's principles. After a year of 'starting thy purse to fattening' and 'controlling thy expenditures' I am much better off financially and have a sound foundation to continue 'Making thy gold multiply'. I have documented my progress in my online journal (www.therichestmaninatherstone.co.uk). P.S. In my copy, the richest man in Babylon was called Arkad, not Akbar.

It may not be historically accurate, but it is a great blueprint for financial prosperity. I have a copy that I read whenever I need a "back to the basics" refresher lesson on how to manage my money.
