Chapter 1 – The Man Who Desired Gold
</h3><p></p><p>This chapter tells the story of Kobbi and Bansir. Bansir is complaining that he works so hard yet never has any riches to show for it. They talk about how much gold they had earned over the years, yet they had nothing left to show after all their years of labour as they had spent the gold to live. Kobbi and Bansir discuss how they had both hoped that they may one day become rich, but it never happened to them. They decide to approach one of their childhood friends, Arkad, who was known as ‘The Richest Man in Babylon.’</p><p></p><h3>Chapter 2 – The Richest Man In Babylon
</h3><p></p><p>In this chapter, Kobbi and Bansir meet up with Arkad. Arkad tells Kobbi and Bansir that the reason they have failed to accumulate wealth may be because they have failed to observe the laws that govern wealth. Arkad found his road to wealth when he decided that a 10th of all he earned was his to keep. It’s not about how much you earn, it’s about how much you keep. Always pay yourself first. Every money you earn is a slave to work for you. No matter how much or how little you earn always pay yourself first.
