The ABC of Money (1891) by Andrew Carnegie | Full Audiobook

This book covers everything from the history of farmers trading bushels of grain for credit to the fundamentals of money: why it exists and, more importantly, what it is. 'The ABC of Money' offers a wealth of information and insightful commentary on the subject from one of the great American businessmen. It's a fascinating look at the history of "debased coin" and "greenbacks," as well as the significance of money.

If you ever listen to anything while reading comments, let it be this - read the book 25 money secrets from Donald Trump, then come back and thank me

[@SK-le1gm]

Thank you Andrew this book is adorable and welcome. Much appreciated

[@wealthbooks]

You're Welcome! We're glad to present this classic work!

[@the_Success_Experiments]

This is my GIFT to you and anyone reading this.. These suggestions have made me the person I am today. So take one or two or all of them and transform yourself to a super being. Thank me later. I personally did and do everything listed below and I got massive results. 1. Write out a statement of your Short Term Goal AND your Chief Aim/Main Goal... on a "goal card" or paper. 2. Write it out 50 times a day for 30 days preferably around the same time each day. After the 30 days, you go back and write it out ONCE a day. This is your compass in life. 3. Set your phone alarm to go off every 3 hours (to disrupt your daily routine) and when it goes off write down your statement and then close your eyes and see yourself with your goal for 2 mins. 4. Record your statement in your voice on a voice recorder on your phone, and play it back to yourself on loop while you sleep and as often as you can daily, example... in the shower or when you are using the rest room. 5. Find an accountability partner. If you cannot find someone, then you MUST write out your statement DAILY. By doing this you make yourself accountable to YOURSELF. 6. Find a community or FB group/group chat, etc and from that community form a Mastermind with one or two people who have studied from REAL Mentors and are giving VALUE. There is a "Law of Giving" and many people are using it. Andrew Carnegie told Napoleon Hill this back in the early 1900s. Its a LAW and it works. Its what I am doing with this post. 7. Auto-Suggest (Think and Grow Rich Chapter 4) to yourself in front of the mirror in the bathroom at least twice a day. Look directly INTO your eyes OR one eye and recite your WRITTEN statement. Then splash cold water on your face. This sudden shock seals the thought into the subconscious due to emotional and physical shock from the cold water. 8. Write out ten "I AM" statements a day. example. I AM happy, I AM more confident. Use the word MORE; implying you already have it, but want more. You trick the brain. 9. Write out 5 things you HAVE that you are grateful for and 5 things that you are grateful for that are coming to you. Mix up the list one after the other. 10. When in public tell people you see that you love them in your mind. Simply say "I LOVE YOU" to them as you pass them, especially when driving, because their subconscious hears and FEELS the intention. Say it to about 10 to 15 people daily. This increases your Good Karma. It might seem like a lot. But it took me less than two weeks to incorporate the list into my life and 32 days later I started getting massive results. What have you got to lose, try some or ALL and see your results. Let me know know too. Have a great day... and thanks for reading.

How come I never heard of this book before? Did not know he was an Author

[@gentlemans.guidance365]

He never actually wrote this book. It was a collection of speeches that was eventually turned into a book. I thought the same thing.

[@the_Success_Experiments]

@@gentlemans.guidance365 Really thank you very very much I thought it was a book on its own thank you for the clarification God bless you

After listening to this how can anyone trust cryptocurrency

[@Palantir_Daily]

Cryptocurrency has value because people assign value to it, similar to commodities like corn and other goods. Bitcoin is somewhat different. Bitcoin is not merely a currency, but a store of wealth. Although its value is derived from the market, it is scarcity that preserves its value. Just like the perforated edges were adopted on a coin to protect its value - Bitcoin is protected by code and a written finite number of coins. Gold and Silver were at one point a store hold of wealth and we used them as a currency. That is no longer the case because we were removed off the gold standard. Today, inflation erodes our dollar bills as a way to encourage spending rather than saving. This is done with the idea that it will cause our economy to continue to grow. A dollar spent and a dollar earned. It’s a giant game.

[@nevinhattle1914]

Before listen who would trust crypto and I mined some of the first Bitcoin when it was just a myth soon after it come about 2007 lost them on old computer wasn't wasn't even a thing more I learn less for a security point of view wasn't interested

[@juliansochandamandou3075]

😂

[@erwincastillo8969]

I agree.. Cryptos are extremely risky as they are driven by hype rumours and trends. Prefer forex instead as if you trade based on economic data you have a high chance of preserving your capital.

[@smoothdahustla9729]

Oh, that's what you get? All I'm hearing are inflationary and inflammatory reasons to go with crypto.

[@ritatruckinpreneur2912]

I wonder what he would think about our present situation... where fiat currency, debt, and bitcoin are used as a medium of exchange

[@the_Success_Experiments]

What is fiat currency

[@abwaancantarboorami2638]

the paper money @@the_Success_Experiments bitcoin is more valuable than gold today . The world is changing rapidly

[@Timothyis]

Only pay half for Silver. Got it.

[@user-mb1zv8dl8l]

Lover.

[@sirthinksalot540]

My critical thinking alarm went off before min.8. What does the store owner that has the clear advantage use as money to aquire initial start up inventory? Maybe he also doubled as the first futures trader in commodities. I think therefore I am.

[@moe_factz]

The store owner would probably get the goods on consignment.

From a principle standpoint, it would seem warnings were given but not heeded.

Can 1891 book be still relavant about money? Some of these income streams are extinct

[@AndBusinessIsGood]

Exactly I was thinking the same thing

[@jeanalexandre1105]

Money money is the resistor to the system. On a higher level, that's what money is.

[@boomclash101]

Good book if we lived in 1891 😂 maybe in 2091 we’ll get a revised version because we didn’t get one in 1991 🤩

[@WildL23]

He let all those people drown and get shot up just so he can give away a hall and some libraries huh. I hope Mr. Carnegie was able to buy himself into Heaven with blood money.
