This is a re-read for me, having originally read this some years ago. If one understands Smith's concepts of how wealth is created, how it moves, how to protect it, other such ideas, and utilizes the information, one will always prosper. I have been re-reading this, comparing/contrasting Smith to what is going on in our current economy. Smith is right on target. I recommend The Wealth of Nations to anyone who has an interest in how our economy works, or is supposed to work. He discusses the pitfalls, many of which we are experiencing now, and their likely outcome. Smith is neither a high energy broker, salesman, financial advisor, nor consultant. Adam Smith simply wrote the book which our entire economy is based upon. Buy the book, read it.
Excellent book.
