How The Swiss Got Rich: The Zurich Axioms Part 1

As I recently spent a few days in Zurich, I decided to read a very interesting book entitled The Zurich Axioms. In this book, the author discusses how despite a small, land locked, mountainous country with minimal natural resources, the Swiss have become some of the wealthiest people on the planet. A disproportionate amount of the world’s wealth is held in Swiss banks. Truly amazing and fascinating. This book describes several of the axioms of rules that have guided the Swiss to extraordinary wealth and how to apply it to your life. In this post, I’ll take a look at a few of the Axioms, some examples of where I’ve seen them in play in my investment experience, and how to leverage them in your pursuit of wealth.
