الوصف
In this practical guide, P. T. Barnum argues that making money is possible for healthy people in a land with opportunity, but that keeping it is far more difficult. He explains wealth through everyday habits: spending less than you earn, practicing rational economy, avoiding “mistaken” thrift, and tracking expenditures to separate necessities from luxuries. Barnum also connects financial success to personal discipline—good health, clarity of mind, avoidance of debt, perseverance, hard work, and learning a trade. He stresses careful judgment in business decisions, warns against reckless “outside operations” and unsecured endorsements, and emphasizes integrity and kindness toward customers. Throughout, the book combines moral counsel with concrete examples aimed at young people starting out and anyone seeking stable independence.

It consists simply in expending less than we earn; that see ...
