The Five Laws of Money: 1. Money comes easily and in increasing quantities to anyone who saves at least a tenth of his income to build assets for himself and his family. 2. Money works diligently and happily for the wise owner who finds a good way to increase it, making it multiply. 3. Money remains under the protection of its careful owner, who invests it under the advice of those skilled in the handling of money. 4. Money quickly slips from the hands of the man who invests it in businesses and purposes with which he is unfamiliar or with which those skilled in its preservation do not approve. 5. Money flees from the man who forces it to earn impossible incomes, follows the tempting advice of swindlers and deceivers, or relies in its investment on his own lack of experience and emotional desires.
