The Richest Man in Babylon Action Plan (Master Class Series) by Mitch Horowitz

The Wealth Secrets of the Ancients:Updated for Today's Challenges

George S. Clason's classic guide to financial health, The Richest Man in Babylon, has won millions of followers since 1930. Told as a series of parables set in ancient Mesopotamia, The Richest Man in Babylon is enthralling in its wisdom and simplicity. But times have changed. The enduring crisis of economic lockdown, spiraling health costs, and working from home were not even figments in the mind of this great author.

Now, PEN Award-winning historian and popular voice of self-help Mitch Horowitz marries Clason's insights to the challenges of our present-day financial lives to produce a profoundly realistic, practical, and relevant "action plan" based on the original principles of The Richest Man in Babylon.

In seven steps--or "Clason's Golden Lessons"--Mitch explores how to profit from your dwelling in our new work-from-home economy; the tough truth about healthcare costs and the original Babylon principles; the soundest source of investment; real-world ways to increase your earning power; why maintaining cashflow matters more than paying down debt in times of crisis; how to contend with issues of fear around money, and more.

As a special bonus feature, this action plan includes a faithful abridgment of Clason's original work, which serves a s a perfect refresher for longtime readers and a primer for newcomers.

In this to-the-point guide, Mitch also explores the historical background of the man and book that taught us to "pay yourself first," and why Clason's basic rules still make the most sense. A selection of "Clason's Golden Aphorisms" distill key pieces of wisdom from the original book, each a lesson in itself.

In succinct fashion, Mitch provides the first true update to one of the greatest financial guides ever written.

Horowitz, Mitch: - One of the today's most literate voices in self-help, Mitch Horowitz is a writer-in-residence at the New York Public Library, lecturer-in-residence at the Philosophical Research Society in Los Angeles, and the PEN Award-winning author of books including Occult America; One Simple Idea: How Positive Thinking Reshaped Modern Life; and The Miracle Club: How Thoughts Become Reality. Mitch has written on everything from the war on witches to the secret life of Ronald Reagan for The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, Salon, Time.com, and Politico. The Washington Post says Mitch treats esoteric ideas and movements with an even-handed intellectual studiousness that is too often lost in today's raised-voice discussions. He narrates popular audio books including Alcoholics Anonymous, The Jefferson Bible, and G&D Media's series of Condensed Classics. Mitch has discussed alternative spirituality on CBS Sunday Morning, Dateline NBC, NPR's All Things Considered, CNN, and throughout the national media. The Chinese government has censored his work.
