Hey, it's Ryan Holiday. Welcome to another Sunday episode of the Daily Stoic Podcast.

Bringing you today one of the most interesting paradoxes in Stoic philosophy, if it really is a paradox, it comes to us from Cicero and actually ties into what we're talking about in the new challenge, the wealthy Stoic, a Stoic guy to be rich, free and happy.

Basically, the paradox from Cicero is that only a wise person is rich. What does that mean? Well, we're going to get into it in the challenge, which you should check out.

It's a whole bunch of Stoic advice on being better with money, being better with wants and desires, being better at investing in yourself, investing for the future, saving, also knowing what to let go of.

Awesome Stoic strategies on that. House Stoicism has guided me as an entrepreneur and as a successful writer.

Anyways, you can check that out at dailystoic.com slash wealth, but without further ado, I will get you into this excerpt from Cicero.

Cicero was what they would have called that a new man. He came from a wealthy family of merchants, not sort of one of Rome's established aristocratic families, and then he makes a fortune for himself as a lawyer.

He's sort of seen as having new money, so people look down on him and he's sort of wrestling with that. He's ambitious. He's too ambitious.

He's just lots of really interesting things that he digs into in this little excerpt from his work on the Stoic paradoxes.

This excerpt was read, was created here at dailystoic, is read by Michael Reed, and I think you'll really like it, so check it out.

Hiring the right people for your business is one of the most important things you can do. It's also one of the hardest things that you can do.

Indeed, those that when you're growing your own business, you have to make every pound count. And that's why with indeed you only pay for applications that meet your must have requirements.

Indeed's UK data shows that over 85% of employers using indeed find quality candidates who CVs on indeed match their job descriptions.

The very moment they post a job. One of the things I love about indeed is that it makes hiring not just easy, but it puts it all in one place.

The moment you post a job and indeed you get a short list of quality candidates whose resumes match your job description.
