A penny saved is a penny earned.

William A. Ward:

Before you speak, listen. Before you write, think. Before you spend, earn. Before you invest, investigate. Before you criticize, wait. Before you pray, forgive. Before you quit, try. Before you retire, save. Before you die, give.

J. Paul Getty:

Buy when everyone else is selling and hold until everyone else is buying. That’s not just a catchy slogan. It’s the very essence of successful investing.

Empty pockets never held anyone back. Only empty heads and empty hearts can do that.

Samuel Butler:

Billy Graham:

If a person gets his attitude toward money straight, it will help straighten out almost every other area in his life.

If money is your hope for independence you will never have it. The only real security that a man will have in this world is a reserve of knowledge, experience, and ability.

Henry Ford:
