Way to Wealth. Collector's Edition. Franklin B.

This man has made more as much as many kings, kings and other rulers combined for his country and for all mankind. So the joke that Benjamin Franklin is the only and best president of the United States that they never had was half a joke.

Benjamin Franklin amazingly combined in his personality, it would seem, not combined qualities. On the one hand, he was characterized by typically American pragmatism. He clearly planned his life, successfully led business - and never suffered failures in commercial affairs, earned money, setting himself the task with the help of the method invented by him to earn even more. Franklin owns one of the most famous time systems in the world, as they say, time management: the system is clear, simple and surprisingly effective.

“Time - Money”, “Three crossings are equal to one fire”, “Today is more expensive than all tomorrow”, “There is to live, and not to live, so as to eat” - we are so accustomed to these phrases that Few people think about their authorship. But this said Franklin! The list of his scientific inventions occupies more than one page. In addition to printed machines, thunderbirds, bifocal glasses, Franklin, we owe the invention of the kitchen slab, rocking chairs and other useful things. He became the first American, a foreign member of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

And on the other hand, the life of Benjamin Franklin is a service to the country, society, civilization. If necessary, he was ready at any time to sacrifice personal in favor of the public, pushed his own interests to the side when it came to the good of society and the country. That is why Franklin is a completely unique personality, the meaning of which for the development of mankind, his movement along the path of progress cannot be overestimated.
