The author of this book, Clason, a famous American financial management guru, borrows short stories from the richest countries in Babylon to teach how to get rid of poverty and become rich, and introduces the financial management wisdom throughout ancient and modern times. The book tells the story of the wealthy Akat who was ordered by the King of Babylon to teach every citizen the twelve golden rules of financial management. For example, a slave escaped from poverty by following the "law of repaying debts twenty-ten times" and became a camel merchant; a rich boy who was ordered to leave home by his father followed the "law of money begets money" and went from being penniless to returning home in rich clothes. The wisdom of the Babylonian rich is a good method for allocating money that everyone can use, and it is a guiding light for confused modern people.
