The Way to Wealth

The Way to Wealth, an essay by Benjamin Franklin written in 1758, compiles his well-known adages and advice centered on themes of work ethic and frugality, drawing from the popular sayings published in Poor Richard's Almanack. Presented as a speech by "Father Abraham" to an audience, the work features timeless phrases such as "Early to bed, and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise." It remains a notable reflection of Franklin’s ideas on personal responsibility and diligent living.
