P. T. Barnum 
The Art of Money Getting 

One of the most important financial books ever written. Following the practical advice given here will lead to increased wealth. Those who truly wish to gain independence need only to set their minds to it and adopt the appropriate means, as they do for any other goal they wish to realise, and it is easily achievable. But as easy as it may be to make money, I have no doubt that many of my listeners will agree that keeping it is the hardest thing in the world. The road to wealth is, as Dr Franklin truly says, "as easy as the road to the mill".
