Fundamentals of Prosperity
Roger Babson
Read by Phil Chenevert
What these principles are and whence they come to us. "The fact is, we have become crazy over material things. We are looking only at the structure above ground. We are trying to get more smoke from the chimney. We are looking at space instead of service, at profits instead of volume. With our eyes focused on the structure above ground, we have lost sight of those human resources, thrift, imagination, integrity, vision and faith which make the structure possible. I feel that only by the business men can this foundation be strengthened before the inevitable fall comes." (from the preface) (1 hr 20 min)

Noise in recording
Zolo
there was a lot of noise in recording. also not much to learn from the book
Old but good old fashion.
Is worth revisiting the real fundamentals of prosperity. They are more spiritual than material.
worth my time
an interesting analysis, tieing the aserted factors of prosperity to culture, and therefore religion.
Good book
