The narrative centers around Arkad, the wealthiest man in Babylon, who shares his secrets of prosperity with his friends. The story begins with the tale of Bansir, a chariot builder, and his friend Kobbi, a musician. Both men are disheartened by their lack of wealth despite hard work. Seeking advice, they approach Arkad, who reveals that he was once poor like them. He credits his fortune to a series of financial principles he learned and applied throughout his life. Arkad's teachings include key lessons such as 'pay yourself first,' which emphasizes the importance of saving a portion of one's income before spending on expenses. He advises setting aside at least ten percent of earnings for personal savings and investments. This principle serves as the foundation for building wealth, as it encourages discipline and foresight.
