"Way to Wealth" is a book written by Benjamin Franklin in 1758. It is a collection of adages and advice on how to succeed in business and personal finance. The book is based on Franklin's famous essay "The Way to Wealth," which he wrote in 1757 and published in the Pennsylvania Gazette.

The book is structured as a series of proverbs or maxims, each offering a piece of wisdom or insight into financial success. The proverbs are presented in the form of a conversation between a father and his son, with the father dispensing advice and the son asking questions.

The book covers a wide range of topics, including frugality, hard work, entrepreneurship, and the importance of education. It stresses the value of saving money and investing wisely, and provides practical advice on how to do so.

"Way to Wealth" was a popular book in its time and has remained a classic of American literature. It is still widely read today and has influenced generations of readers with its practical wisdom and timeless insights into personal finance and success.
