| 0:00.0 | Today, we're diving into one of the OG Business and Money books, The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D. Waddles. |
| 0:07.2 | Written back in 1910 over a century ago, this little short book has influenced just about every modern wealth and success expert out there, |
| 0:16.5 | from Napoleon Hill, the author of Think and Grow Rich to Tony Robbins, you name it. |
| 0:20.5 | But in this book, I find that Waddles keeps things surprisingly practical and simple. |
| 0:26.2 | This is what I love about it. |
| 0:27.4 | You just have to be a little bit patient with the delivery. |

| 1:26.3 | are basically fundamentals. They're |
