All right, everyone get ready, because today we're going on a treasure hunt.
Speaker 2:A treasure hunt.
Speaker 1:Well, sort of we're diving into a book called the Richest man who Ever Lived, to see what financial wisdom we can unearth from of all people, king Solomon, OK, I'm intrigued.
Speaker 2:Now, when we say King Solomon's financial wisdom, we're not talking about ancient stock tips or anything. We're tapping into the Book of Proverbs.
Speaker 1:Exactly. It's about taking those ancient Proverbs, often attributed to King Solomon, and seeing how they connect to our wallets and bank accounts today.
Speaker 2:Right, because, let's be honest, proverbs isn't usually found on the New York Times bestseller list, at least not in the finance section. So how does this book make that connection? How does it bring those ancient verses into the 21st century?
Speaker 1:That's what we're here to find out, and you know what they say the best way to understand something is to well, dive right in. So let's get into it Now. This book we're looking at argues that the book of Proverbs, even though it was written thousands of years ago, has some surprisingly relevant advice for managing our money today.
Speaker 2:Right, it's not just about avoiding debt or whatever. It covers things like investing, planning for the future, even navigating our careers.
Speaker 1:And it all connects back to these proverbs. So can you give us an example? What's one proverb that might resonate with someone listening right now?
Speaker 2:Let's see. Well, there's Proverbs 21.5. The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance, but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty.
Speaker 1:Okay, so break that down for us. What's the financial wisdom hidden in that proverb?
Speaker 2:Basically, it's saying that if you're careful, if you plan things out and you're diligent, you're more likely to achieve financial success, or abundance, as it calls it. But if you rush into things, if you're hasty with your decisions, well, you might end up with less than you hoped for.
Speaker 1:So it's all about thinking things through, not making rash decisions, especially with our money.
Speaker 2:Exactly, and that's something that's just as relevant today as it was back then. I mean, think about how many people get into financial trouble by making impulsive purchases or investing without doing the research.
Speaker 1:Right, like those get rich quick schemes you always hear about.
Speaker 2:Exactly, those are about as far from diligent as you can get. But the book also ties this proverb into more modern financial concepts. Like it suggests that being diligent could mean diversifying your investments. Don't put all your eggs in one basket, as they say.
Speaker 1:So spreading your money around, not putting all your hoax on one single stock or investment.
Speaker 2:Exactly, and that's a strategy you hear from financial experts all the time.
Speaker 1:It's pretty amazing how these ancient proverbs can connect to the way we handle our money today.
Speaker 2:It really is and it makes you realize that some things like the importance of careful planning and making Absolutely, things like the importance of careful planning and making Absolutely.
Speaker 1:Now I know we've only got a few minutes left, but there was one other takeaway from the book that I wanted to touch on.
Speaker 2:Yeah, what's that?
Speaker 1:It's the emphasis on knowledge. I remember reading Proverbs 24.34, which says by wisdom a house is built and by understanding it is established. By knowledge, the rooms are filled with all precious and pleasant riches. That one really struck me.
Speaker 2:Oh, me too. And it's so powerful because it suggests that knowledge itself is a form of wealth.
Speaker 1:Right, it's not just about how much money you have in the bank, but also what you know, what skills you have, how you continue to learn and grow.
Speaker 2:Exactly, it's like that old saying invest in yourself. Yeah, it seems King Solomon, or at least the authors of. Proverbs were way ahead of their. Yeah, it seems King Solomon, or at least the authors of Proverbs, were way ahead of their time.
Speaker 1:It really does make you think. So, to wrap things up, it seems like we've uncovered a real treasure trove of wisdom here.
Speaker 2:We have, and it makes you wonder what other ancient wisdom is out there just waiting to be rediscovered and applied to our modern lives.
Speaker 1:That's something for all of us to ponder, and on that note we'll wrap up this deep dive.
