The Art of Money Getting, or Golden Rules for Making Money - Paperback

by P. T. Barnum (Author)

P. T. Barnum, the greatest American showman of the 19th century, wrote this short book about making and keeping money. He certainly had life experiences that qualify him for the subject--he started a small newspaper in his twenties, bought and transformed a museum into a showplace for curiosities, built a circus empire that gave performances in America and Europe, promoted a performing tour of a singer, fell into debt in the 1850s and pulled himself out by lecture tours, was a mayor, and founded a hospital. He summarized his philosophy for creating and retaining wealth into 21 simple steps anyone can follow.
