In my book ‘Wealth Virtues’, I redefine wealth as simply the goal of ‘acquiring more money than you spend, and to save more money than you owe.’ The path set forth in ‘Wealth Virtues’ towards this goal is the Cycle of Positive Wealth, my own repeatable methodology of eliminating debt and increasing your savings. What keeps you on the path is the practice of Dr. Benjamin Franklin’s Thirteen Virtues. In essence, “improve yourself to improve your wealth!”
