Summary

The Richest Man in Babylon is considered as the greatest of all inspirational works on the subject of thrift, financial planning, and personal wealth. Revealed inside are the secrets to acquiring money, keeping money, and making money earn more money.
Providing financial wisdom through parables, 'The Richest Man in Babylon' was originally a set of pamphlets, written by the author and distributed by banks and insurance companies. These pamphlets were later bundled together, giving birth to a book. In this new rendering by Charles Conrad, the classic tale is retold in clear, simple language for today's readers. These fascinating and informative stories set you on a sure path to prosperity and its accompanying joys. 
About the Author:
George Samuel Clason was born in Louisiana, Missouri, on November 7, 1874. He attended the University of Nebraska and served in the United States Army during the Spanish-American War. Beginning a long career in publishing, he founded the Clason Map Company of Denver, Colorado, and published the first road atlas of the United States and Canada. In 1926, he issued the first of a famous series of pamphlets on thrift and financial success, using parables set in ancient Babylon to make each of his points. These were distributed in large quantities by banks and insurance companies and became familiar to millions, the most famous being 'The Richest Man in Babylon', the parable from which the present volume takes its title. These 'Babylonian parables' have become a modern inspirational classic.

    Business from Heart reflects Andrew’s personal story and is packed with practical down to earth solutions on providing your customers with a consistent experience, recruiting the right people, personal reflection to spending less time on your phone. There is something for everyone in this great listen. 
Business from the Heart was never intended to be ‘my private story’. It began as a collection of thoughts and business ideas. However, as the title suggests, business and the heart are entwined as is our personal and business life. They go hand in hand and life experience is what moulds our journey. As I poured my thoughts into words, I realised that all my experiences – good, bad or otherwise, weave through my personal and business life and Business from the Heart evolved.  
This is where my journey began. My sincere wish is that my story helps ignite a personal flame inside you, on your life’s journey.  
If you are tired of jargon and profit and loss statements and want a story from the heart from somebody who has lived it then Business from the Heart is for you.
