In P. T. Barnum's Art of Money Getting 'The Greatest Showman in the History of the Universe' reveals his secrets for accumulating vast sums of wealth. He describes how anyone can follow his program and become wealthy. After a highly successful career in which he made and lost fortunes, captivated Kings and Queens, and used his genius, wit and eloquence P.T. Barnum wrote these golden rules for making money. "In the United States, where we have more land than people, it is not at all difficult for persons in good health to make money. In this comparatively new field there are so many avenues of success open, so many vocations which are not crowded, that any person of either sex who is willing, at least for the time being, to engage in any respectable occupation that offers, may find lucrative employment." Important words then, perhaps even more important now. P. T. Barnum's wisdom is for anyone interested in securing a fulfilling career.

Autorenporträt
The American showman, businessman, and politician Phineas Taylor Barnum (July 5, 1810 - April 7, 1891) is best known for his promotion of well-known hoaxes and for co-founding the Barnum & Bailey Circus (1871-2017) with James Anthony Bailey. Although he declared himself: "I am a showman by profession... and all the gilding shall make nothing else of me," he was also a novelist, publisher, and philanthropist. His personal objective, according to his detractors, was "to fill his own coffers with cash." The proverb "There's a sucker born every minute" is often attributed to him, despite the lack of any documentation to support this. Before relocating to New York City in 1834, Barnum launched a weekly newspaper in his early twenties and started a small business. He began his career in show business by joining "Barnum's Grand Scientific and Musical Theater," a variety troupe, and shortly after that, he bought Scudder's American Museum, which he renamed after himself. He promoted hoaxes and human oddities like the Fiji mermaid and General Tom Thumb using the museum as a platform.
