    About this audiobook

    In the United States, where we have more land than people, it is not at all difficult for persons in good health to make money. In this comparatively new field there are so many avenues of success open, so many vocations which are not crowded, that any person of either sex who is willing, at least for the time being, to engage in any respectable occupation that offers, may find lucrative employment.

      It's actually quite funny, but if you transpose the 1800's for the 20 somethings the core advice the author gives then could be just as applicable today.
      Not a long book but well worth a read and still some very relevant advice for the young entrepreneur.

      The Art of Money Getting by PT Barnum is a short read that begins with a number of antidotes about money. Many people that think they understand economy, but they have it apply in only one direction. True economy consists in always making the income exceed expenses. Always save a margin of error in favor of the income. It is the eyes of others and not our own which ruin us. If the entire world were blind except me, I should not care for fine clothes or furniture. You cannot accumulate a fortune by taking the road that leads to poverty. PT Barnum, then talks about the 20 key factors in becoming successful.•Don’t Mistake your Vocation•Select the Right Location•Avoid Debt•Persevere•Whatever you do, do it with all your might.•Depend upon your own personal exertions.•Use the best tools.•Don't get above your business. •Learn something useful.•Let hope predominate, but be not too visionary. •Do not scatter your powers. •Be Systematic. •Read the newspapers. •Beware of "Outside Operations". •Don't endorse without security. •Advertise your business. •Be polite and kind to your customers. •Be charitable. •Don't blab. •Preserve your integrity.
