Following the Road to Riches

Do you know the way to wealth?

"In short, the way to wealth, if you desire it, is as plainas the way to market. It depends chiefly on two words, industry andfrugality; that is waste neither time nor money, but make the bestuse of both. Without industry and frugality nothing will do, andwith them everything. He that gets all he can honestly, and savesall he gets (necessary expenses excepted), will certainly becomerich, if that Being who governs the world, to whom all should lookfor a blessing on their honest endeavors, doth not, in his wiseprovidence, otherwise determine." --Benjamin Franklin,discussing the way to wealth in his essay Advice to a YoungTradesman
