Hi, it is nice to know that you are following my article on the Five Laws of Gold, culled from the book, ‘The richest man In Babylon’. This book changed my view of life after reading it sometime past and l believe sharing the content with you would increase your appetite to get a personal copy. Just walk into your local book store and ask for George S. Clason‘s “ The Richest man in Babylon’. If you have already read The Richest man in Babylon, then I believe you have come across The five Laws of Gold, would you share your thoughts on my comment tab?
Hey friends, how did you find the first law of Gold? Well if you missed that post just check it out and let’s keep on talking. I would be sharing with you the second law out of the five laws of Gold, and remember this post is from the all time best “ The Richest man in Babylon”
Before I go on to the second law, know that the gold which you have saved can work for you and earn much more gold.
THE SECOND LAW OF GOLD
· Gold Labors diligently and contendly for the wise owner who finds for it profitable employment multiplying even as the flocks of the field.
Money earn is more than a slave, it should work till it can work no more, if you regard the money you receive as a slave or a worker you would send it to the best market place or job that would bring you the greatest return .It is true that whilst the poor and the middle class work for money the rich on the other hand make money work for them. The Richest man in Babylon is prescribing that every money that we earn should be able to work for us bringing us greater benefit, but this would only be possible if we find for it suitable job where it can work.Most people are aware of this law and so when they receive a pay raise or a bonus salary , they immediately channel that money into another venture, the issue is that , the owner of the money sends it into a business which he knows nothing about and may only be recommended by friends or some guy on the TV wearing a big coat and talking some jargons. Most people on getting a pay raise decides to make the money work for them, unfortunately, the kind of work the money is supposed to do, is not know by the owner. For instance- a friend recommends to him to trade in packaging sachet water , as it is a “hot” business in Ghana, funny enough the owner has no dream of starting a sachet water producing business in Ghana,meaning there is no knowledge of the business and there is no passion attached to it. He only wants to make money! Such illustration is putting your hard earned money to a work you have no experience in , the risks are very high and even if you succeed; your passion to move on would eventually die out.
If we want our money to work for us, then, we must find it a suitable employment something we know the ‘ins” and “outs” or at least are willing to know the in and out, it is through such means that the money would work diligently and contentedly and in effect multiply even as the flock of the field.
Just know the money you earn from your job is a seed and like every seed it needs to be planted so that it fruits can be enjoyed over and over and over and over…….
