Présentation de l'éditeur

Wink and Grow Rich , by Roger Hamilton is the fable of a nine year old boy being raised by his carpenter father who is both sick and tired... In fact, he is tired of being sick, and sick of being tired. Every day for the last 20 years the carpenter has visited the Well of Wealth and spent a dollar, as it is generally known by the townsfolk that if they give generously to the Well, it will give generously to them in return. On this day, the Carpenter is so unwell he is unable to visit the well, so he sends his nine year old son, Richard, in his place. Richard is entrusted with a treasured crumpled dollar, and sets off on his journey to the Well of Wealth. Along the way, Richard discovers that the Well of Wealth is not where he thought it was, and follows a different, more overgrown path. On this path, Richard meets an old woman, an Optometrist, a Plumber, a Gardener, a Fisherman, a Rower, a Musician, and an Inn Keeper. These intriguing and mysterious characters act as guides for Richard, share their wisdom. They have all built their wealth in very different ways, and yet, there is something about them that is common to all. This fictional tale makes one think deeper as to the dynamics of wealth creation. The keys to wealth are in a story behind a story: A lesson behind the lesson.

Each time the reader reads this book they will take out more keys until one by one, they will unlock the doors to their wealth.
