Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "O Homem Mais Rico da Babilônia" in Portuguese language version.
"Without wisdom, gold is quickly lost by those who have it, but with wisdom, gold can be secured by those who have it not," writes George S. Clason in his 1926 personal finance classic "The Richest Man in Babylon," a collection of parables based in the ancient city of Babylon.
The book has become an inspirational classic to millions of readers and despite being set thousands of years ago in the historical city of Babylon. The stories and principles seem just as applicable today as they did in ancient times.
