How to Be Rich

"Nothing is more easy, says Mr. Paulding, than to grow rich. It is only to trust nobody—to befriend none—to get everything, and save all we get—to stint ourselves and everybody belonging to us—to be the friend of no man, and have no man for our friend—to heap interest upon interest, cent upon cent—to be mean, miserable, and despised, for some twenty or thirty years, and riches will come as sure as disease and disappointment."
