Synopsis "advantages of poverty"

Advantages of Poverty, by Andrew Carnegie, is a dynamic book that encapsulates the life and wisdom of the millionaire philanthropist with brief biographical information along with portions of his other essays. You will discover the attitude of selfless giving that motivated this innovative businessman who helped various communities, charities, and organizations to achieve greater success during his day. The wisdom of the steel tycoon who immigrated from Scotland will undoubtedly inspire you to recognize the advantages of an exceptional work ethic that overcomes poverty and lack. I have had to deal with great sums. Many millions of dollars have since passed through my hands. But the genuine satisfaction I had from that one dollar and twenty cents outweighs any subsequent pleasure in money-getting. It was the direct reward of honest, manual labor. --ANDREW CARNGIE

Dale Carnegie (pseudonym of Dale Breckenridge Carnegie, November 24, 1888 - November 1, 1955) was an American businessman and writer of books on human relations and effective communication

Carnegie was a promoter of what is now known as taking responsibility, although this only appears occasionally in his writings. One of the central ideas of his books is that it is possible to change the behavior of others if we change our attitude towards them.
