The Richest Man in Babylon by George S. Clason Pt. 2

Lesson One: “The Richest Man in Babylon Tells His System”

           In lesson one, we are introduced to Arkad—the Richest Man in Babylon. We meet him as he is among his friends who ask him how—even with having a similar start as themselves—did he grow to become the wealthiest among them? He explains some advice he learned during his humbler youth from a man named Algamish. This advice can be summarized into three main points:

Save (pay yourself) at least ten percent of your income;

Your savings should be invested in ways that will continue to pay off;

This should be done as a steady and sustainable habit.

The first point is something I have long been familiar with before reading this book. I’ve always had a rough idea that one should save money. Even when I was little and in Sunday school, I learned a rough outline for a budget: 10% tithe, 30% savings, 30% needs, and 30% spending. These neat little divisions, however, don’t really hold up well to my current situation. For one, I no longer go to church and don’t tithe. Second, my needs typically cost more than thirty percent of my income. Grant it the difference between my needs and wants can sometimes be a bit blurry.

The second point, however, I find a bit more interesting. While I have always tried to save money, I never really had a clear idea of what I was saving for. I always vaguely thought of it as “saving for a rainy day" or for something big like college or a car. Never had I really thought of saving to invest back into my income. Previously my mind had been more like Arkad when he spends his profits on “feasts with honey” and “spiced cakes (pg.21).”

Lastly, on the third point—regarding saving as a habit. I found this areeable as I have long been working on my other habits and routines. I like the idea of focusing on personal finances as a process of habits rather than a final product. Thinking of it this way seems much less daunting of a task.
