its pretty good isn't it? even though the idioms are ancient the lessons play out well in today's world. i like the story of the guy who scammed al capone by borrowing $50,000 or some ridiculous amount for back then for a business investment, took the cash and put it a safety deposit box, then gets it back out when he's supposed to meet capone again and says "i didn't even invest it because the deal looked too risky afterall and i wanted to give you back every last dollar." so capone here asks him how much he would of made from this. guy says like 10'g. capone just gives him that money for free cuz the guy was honest with him.

Good story, Capone gave him only 5 grand but ya respected him for being honest.
Oh yes that was great and I love all the ancients stories, I love history so they were all great. The guy Robert Greene hits everything right on the money. Brilliant and very logical, impossible to disagree with him.
