Abstract
There is no fixed road to wealth, and goods do not stay with the same master forever. Wealth flows to those with ability as the spokes of a wheel converge upon the axle, but it slips like a smashed tile through the hands of incompetent men. A family with a thousand pieces of gold is comparable to the lord of a city: a man with millions can live like a king. Not for nothing are such men called nobles without fiefs.
