Two classic allegorical dramatizations about building wealth and achieving personal success

The Richest Man in Babylon

George Clason's all-time motivational classic comes to life in this audio dramatization adapted by the Napoleon Hill Foundation. It is the story of Akrad, a man of humble of origins; a simple tradesman who was widely known to be the richest man in Babylon.

Regardless of who you are or what work you do, security, riches, and all that comes with them can be yours by combining discipline and imagination with these deceptively simple yet universally profound principles of saving and investing. You too can become the richest man in Babylon.

The Magic Story

Something was happening to all of Jay's friends-they were becoming self-confident, setting goals, and achieving success, and it was all because of a story that was being told to them by a mutual friend, Sturtevant.

Sturtevant, the struggling artist and bad credit risk, had gone through an amazing transformation-he was now a man of supreme confidence with far-reaching goals and great ambitions. What had brought on this miraculous change? He told Jay of the hand-written pages he had stumbled across in an old book-of the story, a magic story, that had unleashed a new and wonderful power within him and changed his life.

Take a journey of discovery. Here in this magical drama are real truths and genuine solutions to the challenges that face us all. Do you want to transform your life from what it is to what you want it to become? Take a listen-when the story ends, the real magic begins.

    A far-sighted guide to personal finance

    History has described Babylon as the greatest example of man¿s ability to achieve noble feats by using every possible resource available to him. All of the resources supporting this large city were created by man. This is precisely why George S. Clason decided to spin his tale of financial understanding in this ancient land; the very mention of this legendary city evokes visions of wealth and splendor. `The Richest Man in Babylon¿ offers insights that aid its reader in wealth acquisition, how to maintain that wealth, and make one¿s reserves earn more money. In order to properly portray such an endeavor, Clason takes us to Babylon where the basic principles of finance are still in use today. Each chapter details, through the use of fictional characters, how to achieve and maintain wealth in seven steps. After having finished this easy to follow financial guide, the reader is more prepared to make the life changes necessary to acquire wealth and make one¿s money earn even more.

    Keys for Building Your Personal Wealth

    I have often enjoyed stories about the creation of wealth, fiction or otherwise. `The Richest Man in Babylon¿ is no exception. It is a book I first found many years ago, and have referred to time and again to remind myself of certain fundamental financial principles. The book is comprised of informative stories designed to give you new mindset for the proper handling of money. Some of the teachings include guidelines for budgeting, saving, investing and lending money. While for some, the book¿s wisdom may seem to be common sense, many will find they have neglected to act on its valuable insights. This is one of those few books like `Think and Grow Rich,¿ `The Baron Son,¿ or `Rich Dad, Poor Dad¿ that seems to have the power to transform lives. Share it with your family, friends, and colleagues.

    An Amazing Little Book!

    i wish to thank my friend who introduced this book 'The Richest man in Babylon' to me when he saw the quest in me to earn more than my normal salary. i have always desired to be rich but this little book opened my third eyes to see clearly what it takes to be rich. The principle in it is hard but very simple.
