Hi All, I’m currently reading “The Richest Man in Babylon” and half way through the book I realized this book is too good to be read alone. On an aside I am going to by several paperback copies and re-read this book with my children and nephews/nieces.
Right now I am thoroughly enjoying this book, it’s a financial planning book written in form of a story where the lessons are in parables or dialogs --Platonian style.
