7 Cures to a Lean Purse

I recently started reading a very interesting book written by George S. Clason entitled The Richest Man in Babylon. Burried beneath the pages of this book are timeless principle on investing and growing your wealth.
For those of you who are having the desire to solve your problem of a "lean purse" the principles espoused here can really help you. According to the book, there are Seven Cures to a Lean Purse and I would like to share them with you.

Because there are seven of them, I will share them with you in seven days. Each day for one of the cures. Let me hasten to add that I am doing this without the writer's consent and so I cannot publish the whole text for you. I will therefore strongly recommend that you get a copy of the book and read. The title once again is: "The Richest Man in Babylon" written by George S. Clason.

So here are the Seven Cures to a Lean Purse:

No. 1: Start thy Purse to Fattening:

The first cure simply means that if you desire to build a fortune, it is wise to start by utilizing that source of wealth which you have already established. It posits that' "For every ten coins thou placest within thy purse take out for use but nine. Thy purse will start to fatten at once and its increasing weight will fell good in thy hand and bring satisfaction to thy soul." 

For those of you who are finding it difficult to make meaning out of this, we simply saying that keep for yourself, one-tenth of whatever you earn.So if you earn one hundred Ghana cedis a month, take out one-tenth of it (ten Ghana cedis) and put it away and your purse will start to fatten.

Remember, a part of all that you earn is yours.

So, that is the first cure to a lean purse. It sounds simple but then again, truth is always simple. Debate it among yourself and if you have any question feel free to ask them and we will gladly answer. Until tomorrow then, it's shalom and stay blessed.
