About this audiobook
By P.T. Barnum | Adapted and Narrated by Luke Meinier
Long before P.T. Barnum became a world-famous showman, he was a practical operator who built massive fortunes, lost them to bad deals, and earned them back through relentless discipline, focus, and smart marketing. In 1880, Barnum wrote down the unshakeable laws of financial independence, creating a grounded framework for anyone trying to build a business or master a craft.
The original text is filled with Victorian idioms and outdated phrasing that get in the way of the core message. This modernized edition translates Barnum’s work into direct, natural English while keeping his original intent completely intact.
Across this one-hour audiobook, Barnum breaks down the practical mechanics of wealth and personal accountability. He explains why chasing too many opportunities at once guarantees mediocrity, how to draw real market attention to your work, and why taking speculative side bets outside your domain leads straight to ruin. He also covers strict risk control, the danger of co-signing debt, and why long-term honesty is actually the highest-yielding strategy in business.
The Art of Getting Money is a direct, no-nonsense audio guide on focus, discipline, and execution—built for listeners who want timeless business wisdom without the historical clutter.
